His pay-off is bound to include a clause forbidding Powell from speaking to the Media about his tenure at Warrington.

Nothing particularly surprising here really. There’s a lot of truth here, the coach is responsible for the under-performance of the players, which is fair given the final call on the recruitment of players and assembled this team.

On Fitzpatrick, he’s almost agreeing with the vast majority on here in that he has skills in certain areas. We have sighted social media as a particular strength, but Middleton goes deeper into it by explaining his relationships with stakeholders and sponsors. All important parts of the CEO. There is still the yawning gap in the Director of Rugby role in my opinion.

I’m sure Powell would sight flaws in the club, likely to be Fitzpatrick and the board through to the resilience of the fanbase.

Probably the 4th or 5th best supported club in northern hemisphere RL?

I would think a few of our recently departed players would have something to say about their time at the Wire.

Probably that they were handsomely paid for minimal effort.

Sadly, they had to recruit and pay for additional staff to help run their businesses since their new clubs insist on them attending all training sessions for the full duration.

Look forward to the book when it comes out in a few years.
