Quote: wirefox "I can't see McManus getting his trophies this year then. While not doubting his business acumen I wonder just how much he knows about the game as a whole. Over the last three years there have been some seriously bad decisions made by management and him being "number one banana" must surely take the responsibility. Makes me wonder if he is actually. " hands on" or if it's just left to the lads.'"
He use to be a bit more "hands on" quite a few years ago, he's more into the commercial side of things now and delegates stuff down which I assume Rush has the handle of things. I,ve spoken too him a few times last year he is still a serious saints supporter with a great knowledge of the game but he comes across as a person not going for the short fix and goes for the longer plan.

I,m not sure what he is thinking this season, he's given KC too much time without a mentor to turn things around. I would think the paying up of KC's contract is not a problem more on availability of a new coach, as far as player recruitment is concerned I would imagine that needs to be targeted at Mike Rush.
