| I stayed to the end because that’s what I do. Many didn’t and quite a few around me said they wouldn’t be back until Smith had gone. I’m not a coach bagger but AP has to be told the depth of feeling amongst the fans, if he doesn’t act many will leave and it’ll take a miracle to get them back. The problem is, if AP acts, who could possibly turn this shower of Shiite we call a team around. I called for Litten to fullback, Hoy to stand off, Smith to scrum half and Nu Brown to hooker with Houghton to loose man, Smith just continues with his failed line up, so to answer the thread’s question, YES.
On another note, if that was a yellow and probably 2 games for Pele, then the sport is an absolute disgrace and will probably lead to more fans leaving.

Strange if he has, as he was one of the better ones - especially when in his correct position. If he has gone then it must be about money.

I was really pleased when he was appointed - a vastly experienced head coach with a track record. Just hasn't worked out.
A penny for Gareth Ellis' thoughts today.'"
Ellis could/would have been our interim with Cummins…

| Ellis said he didn't enjoy coaching anymore didn't he.
On another note, wonder if Davidson has gone?

Also said this after being let go, and wasn’t planning on leaving…

| Thank god he's gone. I never liked him and never wanted him at my club.
No surprise he's failed. I have noticed where this myth of him being a top coach comes from. His coaching career:
Huddersfield.- got them relegated then used days mo eyes t9 get them promoted again
Leeds - got out thoght by John Kear in the CC final, won a lot less thN the clearly useless Brian mcdermott. My granny could have coached that group to a grand final win
GB/England - failure and much worse than macnamara
Warr8ngton - couldn't win the gF despite all of the money and resources at his disposal
Rovers - nearly got them relegated in his first season
Us - makes radford look like a coaching genius
We've been abysmal for most of his tenure. It looks like the players only see each other on match days.
With a limited playing group we need to be super fit and defensively sound. We're neither and he has rightly paid the price
