If Henry did become coach, who would be responsible for player recruitment? It seems we have a fairly urgent need for some expertise in recruiting decent, cheap, unattached Championship level players. Who will provide that expertise?

I don't think Henry would be a good appointment purely because I don't know if he's a good coach if he is fair enough.

Rohan was very popular a nice guy and a good self publicist however performance wise we didn't achieve anything during the season I attended games where the team were unmotivated and tbh poo.

The proof of the pudding will be in the eating for whoever takes over Henry Paul or otherwise.
It seems to me they already have their man and players lined up.

But fans on social media acting like take that have just split up is ridiculous, it may just be for the best?

It seems the new owners are already in a left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing scenario. On one hand they say "we want to bring in an experienced coach" and on he other "let's sign Henry Paul"

We're less than 24 hours into the new regime and I'm already missing administration

made me chuckle

Looking at the comments on social media I think a large proportion of them were under the impression that new owners would take over and things would just carry on as before. All be it starting on minus 12 points but without the debt of the previous club.

However, the fact is that income is much lower than that club and we currently have no coach or players signed up.

I think as reality bites people are a bit shocked. You only have to look at all the garbage posted on social media when it was the referendum last year. People post stuff on Facebook etc without thinking. Whereas if they said it in real life they'd think about it first.

It's probably going to get worse before it gets better but there are always consequences when things like this happen. Even if fans of other clubs don't accept that losing all your players, including academy prospects, is not a massive disadvantage.

Sick at losing Rohan,but let's give Henry Paul a crack before dismissing him,he's got plenty of class to pass down imo.

I doubt that Henry has any better cv than Jimmy, now if was ex A B's coach Graham Henry that would indeed be jaw dropping and he is a very experienced Coach!


If they are serious then I expect one of the fringe NRL coaches who are between jobs at present, but we have to wait and see and let the rumours do the rounds!

After so much uncertainty it would be nice to know where we are at..

But wait and see, it would be nice to enjoy watching the team play instead of been disappointed.

Don't forget the fev game the worst I've ever seen that cost us £500k.

A TRL poster came up with a good shout:

I was chatting to the misses about this last night. I made the point that if two parties working together don't have a vision that's aligned with one another, then there is no possible working relationship. Without a good relationship between the coach and the board, the club can't progress. So the statement seems to me like this was the case. I'm sad to see Rohan go - seemed like a sound bloke to me - but if he can't make music with Lowe and Chalmers, then there's no point keeping him on. Best of luck to Rohan - someone said on this thread earlier that he will probably pop up somewhere in the future; I have no doubt that is the case.
