| A slight word of caution here, Alf is the real money man and he is certainly a 'character' and known for his unorthodox (but incredibly successful) approach to all things business.

At last! Some negativity. I was getting a bit giddy.

| One thing I do agree with is that the first appointment needs to be a strong quality experienced coach and possibly a director of rugby.
I don’t believe Apelgarth needs to be let go. He would however benefit from a tenure as assistant under a strong coach or should take charge of the youth and reserve set up once more where he has proved valuable.
It’s already an uphill battle. If we go another 2 behind then it may be best to prepare for a massively strong 2024 season. A season winning in the championship does have some appeal from me a fan who is used to seeing us struggle along.

Isn't that a similar thing though with MC.
Yorkshire Traction was his father's company, which he worked for, and was then sold on to Stagecoach

Wouldn’t expect anything else ,takes a real character to build a empire and keep it going . Bring it on I say ,I couldn’t give a monkeys what he’s like as long as he builds a team and club to be proud of , too many fans try to get too involved and hung up on the business side , that’s their job , let them do their stuff and us fans do what we’re good at .. Supporting the team .

I think the inference was more the comparison with Eric and Johnathon France.

| Quote FIL="FIL"Think Leigh have shown how it should be done and the first 2 appointments HAVE to be a Director of Rugby and a new Coach who will be happy to build a quality squad to win the Championship next year, whilst our new owner puts in place a management team to tick as many of IMG's boxes as possible. That way we can hit the ground running in 2025
'"
Agreed - I've said this all along. Find the best coach and DoR we can possibly find and give them a 5 year plan.
Leigh have been exemplar in this area. Lam is a great coach and they don't grow on tress, but the principal remains.

| Well whether it's Alf or Matthew in charge they look to have plenty of brass. Take a look at the DIY Kitchens website. Amazing.

| Yes I noticed the slight dig which they followed up with a second referring to him as prolific scorer when he scored a second try.
