With all due respect, I cannot ever see DB sitting back and allowing others to manage his well earned Spondulicks, it does not seem in the nature of the man not to get involved.

Thanks Atomic but I don't want the job, to busy in Blackpool.

Too many cooks are spoiling the brothers!

Time for someone impartial to sort out the rubbish happening behind the scenes !

You can't beat someone who's a winner and who can handle adversity. Cunningham could be a shrewd appointment.

Just hope we can get survival and then start to regroup for next season I think if we stay up we will have to use are get out of jail free card

Huddersfield lost to a Championship club in last years Qualifiers and finished top 3.

We have to keep the belief !

Long was responsible for the defensive structures during the KC era at Saints, its quite well documented and one of the many frustrations we Saints fans endured. Especially considering Longs only attack coaching endeavour at Salford was relatively successful.

Just out of interest, who was the attack coach under Cunningham's reign?

‘Jammer the Hammer’

It was split between Lolesi who was responsible for the backs, and Cunningham who was responsible for the forwards (sorry, middles). Ultimately KC was responsible for the attack though (and everything else). Why he chose to structure the coaching team in that way was baffling.

Yeah, it does seem a bit of an odd set-up. Thanks for the heads-up.

Did anyone else listen to the interview on Rugby League Extra with K.C.

When it was first announced that K.C. would be Director of Rugby at Leigh I welcomed the idea. A person who has won the challenge cup, the grand final, a world club challenge winner and a Super League coach. What a pedigree.

I naturally thought he would "steady the ship" yea Derek has done wonders for the club and I take my hat off to him, he is to be commended for what he has done to improve the club, but for me he is not a Director of Rugby and maybe K.C. would / could bring all that experience with him.

But going back to the interview I felt a little deflated when the words "Flash in the pan" and "Marwan" was used it sounded to me that all this was Marwans idea !!!

I remember him saying something like "Marwan approached me" and they are great friends Derek and Marwan.

Could just be me getting the wrong end of the stick, but it sort of sounded like "oh go then i'll give it a go"

Like I said it could be me

Time will tell, well 6 weeks anyway

For me we already have to many Coaches however I would give Keiron a go and hope he can help preserve our SL status,I've been told Adam Swift the winger from Saints is out of favour and could be available for next season, he is young, strong, and very fast, could do a good job for us if we survive the coming weeks.

So was our team selection and/or performance due to Cunningham, or something/someone else?

cunningham played 1 won 1 superb team performance

Well the guy can't lose can he - stay up and he turned us around, go down and it was too late for him to do anything
