TS management style always hits me and somebody you would like in charge when things are good, morale is high and he builds your confidence and belief with his ultra positivity. When in a bit of a hole I’m not sure he’s somebody you’d want leading you in the trenches, going to war and leading by example (metaphorically) putting a rocket up their backsides.

Great coaches can do both.

His interviews are becoming comical, as much as I enjoy watching the demise of FC I sometimes read them and think what the hell is this guy on about. I’d be fuming as a speccie watching some of these recent performances and then hearing and seeing his thoughts, he’s got some cheek.

Very good historically, not sure he is now. Not sure what a solution or other option would be though

Strange if he has, as he was one of the better ones - especially when in his correct position. If he has gone then it must be about money.

Quote: ComeOnYouUll "I guess it was inevitable given the state we are in even thiugh it's not all Smith's fault - far from it. I'm surprised at the timing though.

I was really pleased when he was appointed - a vastly experienced head coach with a track record. Just hasn't worked out.

A penny for Gareth Ellis' thoughts today.'"


Ellis could/would have been our interim with Cummins…

Ellis said he didn't enjoy coaching anymore didn't he.

On another note, wonder if Davidson has gone?

The poor man's bonaire:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32641.jpg



Thank god he's gone. I never liked him and never wanted him at my club.

No surprise he's failed. I have noticed where this myth of him being a top coach comes from. His coaching career:

Huddersfield.- got them relegated then used days mo eyes t9 get them promoted again

Leeds - got out thoght by John Kear in the CC final, won a lot less thN the clearly useless Brian mcdermott. My granny could have coached that group to a grand final win

GB/England - failure and much worse than macnamara

Warr8ngton - couldn't win the gF despite all of the money and resources at his disposal

Rovers - nearly got them relegated in his first season

Us - makes radford look like a coaching genius

We've been abysmal for most of his tenure. It looks like the players only see each other on match days.

With a limited playing group we need to be super fit and defensively sound. We're neither and he has rightly paid the price
