Smith the highest paid coach in the last 10 years
Biggest playing budget on memory
Better training facilities than any previous SL coach
More physio, medical and analitical staff than any previous coach
As many resources as he asked for

Carter says he cannot think of any occasion when he said 'no' to Smith

Frosty relationship is because Carter refused to enter the bidding war for Brett Ferres

Smith basically walked into the office unannounced, said he was terminating his agreement with immediate effect and walked straight out again.

One down the road at Cas mate, Ryan Sheridan.

Onwards and upwards. New coach required and hopefully will bring better results.

Frosty relationship.
Why no mention of this during the pre season build up.
Fans yet again urged to buy season tickets without the truth being told.
There were rumours about this but I find it disrespectful keeping it quiet
In a bid to sell tickets when there was quite clearly a problem.

How do you know that Ferres situation was cause of the rift Avenger?

I also had heard the Ferres rumour . Seems very childish if this is the cause . There is no way on earth Ferres would come back he hated it the first time

you can not operate a professional club with a frosty relationship. The players and all the staff must have been in the know. I don't have a problem with the club not going public with the announcement but it does not make for a healthy club. I also wonder what C E O contacted M C asking if he was looking for a new coach an hour before B S left, bet it was Warrington.
!5 throwing their hat in to the ring is interesting and still shows that the club can generate interest. I just hope for M C it aint a no brainer.
Anyway we enter yet another shambolic period in the clubs history .

Told you when will you ppl listen to me.

..have you applied by any chance ????

M C said that he could not remember an occasion when they said no to B S so I doubt very much the Ferres thing. I think that would have sprung to mind.

Would you really expect ANY business to do it's dirty washing in public.
These things come out over a period of time or, when either party goes public.
Nobody is going to come out and say the coach and chairman aren't getting on too well.

Bearing in mind Smith was "the best man" for the job 6 months ago, it will be interesting to see who wants the gig.
