Quote: The Penguin "Is it not possible that pre-season will start before we have the new coach in place, and he has been recalled in order to fill the gap in between?
I know very little about the bloke but do wonder what qualifications he has to be our head coach.'"
I'm aquainted with him from South London days, was a promising amateur RU player (he's from Sheffield) who got into student RL at Uni, but he also suffered an injury effectively ending his playing days. So he went into coaching and junior development work, he's a very intelligent and astute coach, the only downside is he never played at a high level. He will have worked with a lot of our younger players as they came through the ranks, someone like Lamont will have been working with him for years.
