Indeed a top bloke, quite the wit on one flight back from Perpignan, good with the supporters and London RL through and through, but coach would be a backward step, some other role could surely be found though.

will really hurt them if they get relegated.

This is absolutely true.

Although it is quite incredible that despite the ever worsening news coming out of the RU club this week, they are still able to announce a new associate sponser - Samsung! To think that they can manage that through the current fiasco and we struggle for ANY sponsorship.

Quins are making front and back page news plus the lead stories on the sports bulletins. We have our pitance of a crowd declaring they've had enough and are never coming back

I don't think they will be relegated. I still think the ERC could ban them from the Heineken Cup this year, I also half expect a points deduction from the Guinness Premiership (which will probably be enough to cost them a play-off place, but not enough for a relegation dogfight. I also think that unless he walks, Mark Evans could receive a ban or be removed by the RFU, who are more than able to do this.

I doubt that he would be able to make a fist of our ceo job if he is forced out. His contacts and influence will be much less with the damage this will do to him.
