| Quote Sir Kevin Sinfield="Sir Kevin Sinfield"England vastly improved under McNamara'"
1. Because we had an influx of better English players come through at once and a few go and play NRL
2. Because we played a series against New Zealand who left a lot of their best players at home |

Whilst the Cats are in dire form under Mac, there seems to be deeper rooted problems at that club.to be fair to him this squad does not have anywhere near the star quality of Cats sides a few years back

All his coaching career he's taken the credit when his teams win, but it's never his fault when they lose.

Its going to take a very persuasive arguement from someone to convince me that he is worse than Agar.

I hope McNamara stays at Clueless Catalan and continues the dire form and more losses.
Nothing against Catalan, i just enjoy the absence of the fake Frenchy for a few days after they play.

With regards to McNamara during his Bradford tenure, the financial issues that Bradford had didn't really come into play until after McNamara left, but his time in charge could be seen as a big contributing factor. Failure to make the play-offs combined with his poor recruitment saw the crowds at Bradford drop off. The club implemented the cheap season ticket deals to try and bring fans back to the club but that plan was not properly thought out or executed leading to Bradford's collapse

Why are all the worst English coaches unloaded in France? Agar was the French national coach for a time. |

Robert "Bobbie" Goulding too. Two years in charge at Rochdale clearly gave him the right credentials for the job. |

| Quote Wellsy13="Wellsy13"Going to Catalans was a horrendous career choice for McNamara. Having a questionable coaching track record would mean you should pick your next appointment carefully. Picking Catalans, a club in turmoil in a country where you're not familiar (and I assume don't know the language) was asking for trouble from day one. He was on a hiding to nothing. That's literally what's happening. He's achieving nothing and getting a hiding for it.
I'd say you can't judge him on it, but he chose to take on the role. He knew exactly what he was getting himself in for. I could understand if he was a promoted number two, like at Bradford, but to pick this appointment was ridiculous.'" Of course you can judge him, two years ago Catalans were top of the league in May. They had a shaky start to last season but were still 9th when Frayssinous was sacked, now they look a million miles off winning a game against SL standard opponents. I'd say performances now are even worse than under Kevin Walters in 2010 which I didn't think was possible. Who else's fault is that but the coach? |

STATISTICALLY........Rob Powell is the worst SL coach ever....only because Joe Grima wasn't actually a coach! Broncos 2014–15 P19 W2 D0 L17 89% Loss ratio............Grima took us down and then very nearly buried us! |
