Harrison! Bring back 2006!

who in their right mind who want/employ another untried Australian coach after this debacle ?

moreover which Overseas Coach worth his salt would touch us after Parish ?

forget all the high talking , what we need is an experienced english based coach who can give us some period of stability and claw back a semblance of credibility.

but as Andy Wilson so candidly put it :-

No I don't think even Hobson would choose us ..

Harrison was found out half way through 2006. We limped over the line in the end that year and by the middle of 2007 was fodder.

If you were Powell and the club came to you cap in hand after turning you down in the initial interviews ( was he actually interviewed?) would you tell them to stuff it or would you look on this as a second chance to prove yourself?

From talking to Leeds fans it seems Powell was left with the same sort of situation at Leeds when he took over, no money and no youth. Look at the standard of juniors he produced after that.

We need to move quickly and appointment someone even if only 12 mths such as Noble.

This is our most important season for last last 20 years and neeed to make the new stadium/team work.

If we don't we won't be sharing with Sale they will be sole tenant!

Martin Johnson has retired as england RU head coach, could be a move to RL lol

Can we really gamble on Noble for 1 year? We need a coach to take us forward. We have 2 years to solidify the clubs place in SL. If Noble does 1 year then a new coach would be coming for the beginning of year 2. That's not a stable enough situation to build a competitive team, increase crowds and do the other things needed to stay in SL.

We have to ensure we don't do a quick fix option. Yet also not panic and get the wrong person in. Hopefully the clubs second choice person is still available and willing to give the club a chance.

As for your last statement I've posted a similar thing elsewhere. I agree with you completely

Powell would be a great appointment. Knows the game inside out, tactically astute, well respected amongst the players and has a huge amount of contacts. Trouble is, he's probably far too smart to be daft enough to take on the Salford job - as mentioned on various threads, Salford's reputation amongst the playing/coaching fraternity is at an all-time low because of various factors, and no doubt Mr Simms will fancy another few weeks in Australia instead of an afternoon in Fev!

I don't think Andy has his coaching badges

Sorry Rhino has his dream job
