Precisely.

There's little doubt a hardcore group of Saints fans have done their best to undermine Potter (perhaps even finished him) with at best faulty and worst - downright deceitful reasoning. If that wasn't bad enough they are now gutlessly attempting to airbrush their stinking, cowardly role out of history.

[i"It wasn't me, Guv - honest!"[/i

But we KNOW the names. The same names who bash Flannery. The same names who think Dixon & Ashurst aren't Saints material (expect the same frantic airbrushing in the wake of Dixon's outstanding performances lately) etc. etc.

They'd better HOPE McManus doesn't drop a clanger and hire a disaster (a very real possibility) because the flak will definitely come their way.

Am I on your list of culprits?

Garry Schofield is off his tits.

we all know that...but i dont think that would be such a bad idea.

Does Scully have the relavant coaching qualification? Not that schofield believes in that sort of thing

He really must of put a lot of thought into that article. Jeez Louise.

I think you hit the nail on the head there.

I can but they are all aussies and kiwis

I say it through gritted teeth but Wigan have got the right idea with what they're doing at the moment.

They've got a young, cutting edge Australian who has cut his teeth at one of the most successful clubs Down Under, brought his knowledge of their systems and structures over to implement them within the Wigan club, while appointing ex-players with Wigan in their blood - Wane, Radlinski, Hampson - on the coaching staff. Once Maguire goes home in a couple of years, which Australians inevitably do as proved by Anderson and now Potter, rather than being in the same boat again of looking for a 2-3 year solution of another Aussie coach who will bring new systems, they already have successful structures in place and can promote a new coach from within, who can then, theoretically, continue their success for years to come.

Saints would be absolutely stupid to appoint any of Sculthorpe, Cunningham, Martyn as head coach (as Schofield suggests in his article ) but I'd definitely be in favour of seeing any of them as part of a new look coaching team, fronted by an experienced and successful Aussie coach, overseeing them for anything between 3 and 5 years realistically, before handing the reins over and returning home.

You couldn't argue it though, because you are completely wrong you anti social retard.
