So where does the club go from here ? Big changes are needed

Quote: Rob Wire "I think the majority of Warrington fans know whats wrong with this club but do our board ? Do we have anyone on our board that understands the modern game from both a playing and business point of view ?

Some may say that we do have people on our board that understand the business side of things but thats something i would question, did it make good business sense to offer Paul Cullen a new 2 year deal on the back of achieving mediocrity ? Did it make good business sense to sanction a new deal for Stuart Reardon on the back of some very average performances along with his ongoing injury problems.

Did it make good business sense to offer Jon Clarke a new 4 year deal, its not the point that he got a new deal albeit my own view is that he is Mr Average, the point is the length of his new contract that he was awarded, he`s no Cameron Smith and its not like we had to tie him up on a 4 year deal to stop any other top clubs enquiring about him as we would be waiting for an eternity for that to happen.

Was it also wise for the board to offer a rookie coach the job after Paul Cullen left, the same rookie coach that played a big part in a SL team being relegated and the same rookie coach that failed to act in a responsibe way when some Salford fans questioned their teams performance away in Catalan ?

This can`t go on for a day longer in my opinion, James Lowes if he had any decency would do the right thing and offer the board his resignation but we all know that isn`t going to happen as he will hide behind the line "I`m not a quitter and ive never shirked away from a challenge" which seems to be the standard line for any coach under pressure, if he resigns then its no pay off and he comes across to me as the type that won`t do whats best for the club.

In my opinion these are the things that need to happen for us to move forward.

1. A complete shake up of the board, we need a mixture of people that understand the modern game, directors that have an impeccable business record in this sort of area, and people that are not affraid to make ruthless, tough decisions.

2. A head coach, someone who has had recent major success and could be termed as world class, on the playing side this is the most important thing to get right of which most people know. The new coach can rid the club of the players who he deems unfit to take us to the levels needed to win silverware on a consistent basis.

3. Tony down at Tony`s spuds needs to be brought in to do the match day catering along with the role of compiling diet sheets for the players, from what ive read about Tony`s spuds on here he seems to be well respected by the players and coaching staff and they seem to confide in him so maybe he could have a mentoring role to condition the players minds on match days.

That i`ll do, its pointless talking about the Wakefield game itself as we were an embarrassment to the town and the name of Warrington. Well done to Wakefield on a fully deserved win, it shows you what grit and determination can achieve and how you can overcome a squad thats been depleted through injury.'"
