Quote Start@1873="Start@1873"So, how do you feel if & if We still have Apple arch as main coach + Carter & Miners still there as well as the new owner - he still has a business to run, running Wakey is a full time job + watching the club & finances ?
I will not follow more ineptness , but I will follow genuine " having a go with a good regeam " !'"
Given the right players and investment Applegartb could turn out to be a good coach. Though he’s still in his head coaching infancy this season will have provided him with some invaluable lessons. He seems like he would learn from them.
It’s a decision of the club owner and if the club owner believes Applegarth has something to add to trinity in the near future then I will watch it in unfold. Fact is that many a new coach would have struggled with what they’ve had at their disposal this season.
Personally there are options such as bringing in an experienced coach and having Applegarth and Long understudy to them or an experienced director of rugby. It’s hard to comment as I don’t think we will have a clear picture of any changes till after season completes.
If the takeover happens and some current staff stays then you have to trust the new owner to make those decisions.
If the current owners remain then I trust them to work within their means but also continue to both make the new facilities a success (and profitable to offset repayments) and also search for further investment.
The current owners or new owner won’t want a repeat of this season that’s for sure.
As for now, we have the players we have. We have the coach we have and we are still in with a reasonable chance to survive so I just want to hope and support that they can pull together and keep the club up. We are only 1 win behind and it all looks like it could go down to the last game.
