A decent assistant. Certainly better than the current mediocrity.

I think that Karl would do an excellent job in transforming the club, as head coach just as Brian Mac would given the chance

I would actively seek out Brian McDermott. He is one of the brightest coaches in super league and has experience of the club from the clubs best years.

I think the club should try get Robbie Paul back to the club somehow as part of the backroom staff. His passion for the club to suceed would be second to none.

There is no reason at all to suppose that any of McDermott, Lowes or Harrison would be any better than what we have. None of them have "done" anything and it would be change for change's sake.

If you were looking for a replacement coach then the only place to look would be Australia. Why? Because such a person would have a good chance of knowing and being able to attract some highly promising young halfbacks which is something we ain't gonna get this side of the equator.

BTW one chap who we have missed out on is our very own former halfback Ivan Henjak, who is of course now top man at Brisbane. Now that's the sort of contacts that get you great players you've never heard of.

Er...hardly! Quite the opposite, in fact.

[FA mode...

I replied to the first point you made by asking you for YOUR ideas, and giving one of my own (the only one I can think of). After all, you were replying to MY post where I was pointing out some inconvenient truths. You have not put any suggestions forward at all for generating the additional funds needed for a change of coaching staff.

Your second paragraph, leaving aside the unnecessary (IMO) "special needs" insult, was simply to return to the "sack Macca and all our problems are over" line - again without suggesting how we could afford to do that.

A precis of your third paragraph, which represented about two thirds of your post and NOT "one tiny little detail" (come ON now!) is that families won't come cos kids find losing "boring". OK, I'm sure you meant to say "losing regularly" but even so, that just reinforces the "you are all glory supporters" argument that we hear from those who do not wish us well. But it also reinforces the point I have been making - the Catch 22

And for God's sake, if anyone can see a way out of this Catch-22 that does NOT require a load of cash up-front lets hear it, cos I'm right out of ideas!

Hardly. The argument is irrefutable, unfortunately. Had that been Hudds today not Hull, the stadium would have been less than 1/3 full.

Get ready for gates of 5-6k when we play Celtic and Catalans.

I'd just like to say from a Rhino, I hope you get the players to pull their fingers out soon. SL is a better place with a fully fit and competitive Bulls.

I won't attempt to offer any suggestions regarding improving the current situation, other than to say you all need to rally round the club whilst it sorts itself out. If the revenue drops then so does the quality of the employees, its the same in any business.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

Exactly

Whilst I agree with you, anyone you could afford from Aus wont have "done anything" on the coaching front.
=yellow[size=59How about Deacon as player coach?[/size

How about Noble? Guessing he could be laying his hands on a P45 in the near future!
