| The board room at the Stoop must have a revolving door.
With Mark Evans having just announced his departure from the RU side, according to Monday's League Express, Paul Blanchard is leaving the RL side as well to manage Surrey Sports Park.
"The club is certainly more stable now.." he feels.
I think he's right and he's certainly moved things forward considerably; but given what he took over, that's not filling me full of optimism just at the moment.
Interesting that this came out on Monday, but no mention on the Quins own website.

| Until there is an official word this is just speculation.

| Slightly related, Surrey Sports Park is Harlequins RU training ground.
I've already covered my views on Blanchard. I won't say anymore. Hopefully we fill the vacancy swiftly with the sports management version of Tim Cook.

He is quoted in RLE, so thats pretty official.
The search for his successor has started but the season starts in 8 weeks and with Xmas in that period can't see an appointment pre Magic Weekend.
I can't help feeling Blanchard is living up to his CV, moving on within the sports industry after relatively short periods of time in one job, and frankly he hasn't really too much to brag about after his spell with Quins RL.

Right. So stable that it's almost impossible to discern anything happening at all.
I've no idea what goes on inside the club, but I don't think PB is going to be any great loss.

| Never a dull moment eh? I liked PB but he was ploughing a lonely furrow. We need a big personality to take the club forward. How about Jon Wells?

| I don't think it matters whether whoever is appointed has a big personality or any involvement with the club, the game or even sport before. Actually it might be refreshing if they didn't.

| Story now on Facebook and Quins site!
rlhttp://www.league.quins.co.uk/news/12884.phprl
Quotes from Paul Blanchard in League Express suggesting because we can't get loan players for a sufficiently long period Quins may be forced to give full time contracts to a couple of players. I translate this as meaning Quins are running on a shoestring and I'm off.

| What is this "corner" that we have turned and how are we "in an excellent position to move forward and begin to realise some of the potential that this Club has."

simpsons/017.jpg Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |
|
| If it was PB's decision to dispense with the services of our best and most able steward, then I say good riddance to him as the man has very poor judgement imo.
