| Quote The Daddy="The Daddy"What the club really needed was to completely change the culture from a losing one, in my opinion Tony helped to create that culture.
Nothing that I saw before tells me that we won't be sitting here in a year or two years talking about chronic underachievement and wanting to get rid of the coach.
Lets not forget that when Brian Mcdermott came in he brought a lot of new initiatives to the club which wasn't there when Tony was coach, including training methods and youth programs, the football side of things wasn't brilliant and people on here are deluding themselves saying that Tony will bring back the good old days......what good old days?
When was this golden age that we had under Rea.......this is just a symptom of David Hughes knee jerk culture which he's created at London Broncos.......Epic Fail!!
When you change the culture of a club you have to do it in a radical way without sentiment, look at how ruthless Ian Lenaghan was with Brian Noble, in the end it was the right decision because look how Michael Mcguire completely changed everything there,that was the type of change we needed.....radical change, now I fear we've missed the boat just because we won a few games after a new coaching appointment which is normal.
Bad, bad decision.......as Marlon Brando said, 'We could've been a contender''"

How do you motivate talentless?

| Your coaching appointment is the most important one, you must look at their track record, who they've worked with, recommendations from other coaches all of this helps you to find the best man for the job.
It's no coincidence that Ian Lenaghan was the man that gave Michael Mcguire his first coaching gig. When you think outside of the box and have a determination to succeed and use common sense you will make the right choices.
As Gutterfax stated, Lenaghan is a master businessman he sold his car in order to get his business up and running and has been a success in every field he's been in. When he went about hiring a coach he was prepared to do whatever it takes to get the right man, not ' Oh there's noone else available', or ' Tony Rea is the best we can get'.
Rea and Powell were the easiest and laziest coaching appointments they were there under our noses and we didn't even bother to look outside the box. Why I bring this thread up again is because I want to demonstrate that winning/losing is a mentality which comes from the top and if you have a strong desire to win and succeed you will but you have to make sure every decision you make is the right one, after all the coaches role is THE most important decision a club owner will make.

Mcdermott was hired by Lenaghan, what's your point?

| That the coach of the champions for the last 2 years failed miserably at London and as such, have you considered that it may not all be down to the coach and that it could be the culture of the club or possibly something else.
Thats my point-is it clear enough

Look I wouldn't have picked him as coach, I'm indifferent on Mcdermott. At the same time look what Leeds have in terms of playing talent. Still don't see what point your trying to make, at the end of the day Tony Rea shouldn't have been rehired. We needed to tear the script up and bring in someone with new ideas and continually evolve the club.

On the pitch yes, but for our youth set up he didn't fail. You take the good and the bad. McDermott was better than Rea anyway.

| What are you talking about? As I said Leeds have some of the best players in the world in their team. Brian Mcclennan won trophies with them and was sacked by NZ Warriors. So what? Still don't understand your point.
