Quote: carl_spackler "There was a thread on here preseason that discussed the current abundance of promoted no. 2s in SL head coaching positions when talking about our choice of Radford. You were pointed out as the exception, but I completely agree with you and said at the time that the key thing to point out is that yours was the most similar situation to that which we've now been in for a few years, which was one of underachievement requiring rebuilding. Most of the promoted no. 2s (particularly the successful ones) have inherited strong situations and been asked to continue the work already done, rather than revolutionise a club. You bit the bullet and got an experienced coach with a strong SL track record to do it, we've gambled on following the latest trend without having the groundwork done for him. It was always a massive ask.'"
This in a nutshell... sums up all the problems at Hull FC...
Wigan: Wanted Bellamy, but he said "Maguire's ready, been 6 years his Assistant" , they chose Bellyache's judgement.Wigan board gave Madge him the coaching structure he requested.. they saw massive improvements in the first few months..Wane continued with the same structure.
Huddersfield:Nathan Brown same as Wigan.. Laid the foundations.. Anderson continued with the same structure.
St Helens;Same as Huddersfield.
IF Radford left, I can see Last or Horne replacing him...
