If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Not going to lie, personally gutted that Stan is going, and obviously worse that it's you filthy gets!
Pleased for Stan himself as it's an advancement in his career and any Rovers fan that isn't pleased for anything good that happens for Stan is a pillock.
Best of luck to the one and only Stan.
No animosity to Smith either really, did well for us and is only 55, got a good opportunity to do what he enjoys in building a club. No idea what went on at Rovers but he left us better than when he arrived so I can only be grateful and again, wish him all the best.

We've been talking to a head coach from the Championship and Grix fits the bill. Young, has done a great job at Fax and he played under Smith at Warrington for a few years.
Would be a very astute apppointment by Hull. |

Very gracious post. I’m sure it will feel weird seeing Gene with a Hull badge, same as my brain not being able to compute Lee Crooks in Rovers gear for a time.
If it’s any consolation, it will be the person he’s followed here, not a calling after his Hull FC days! |

Could be Lingard as well. Very good coach at Batley, and unlike Grix, Batley are never really going to trouble the top 2 in that league, so may see it as the next step in his career? |

Has to be the best signing you have made for a long time.  |

Willie Poching available. He played for Smith at Leeds and was assistant coach to him at Warrington and Rovers.

He's bang on the money as far as I'm concerned.
Too many players hung Brett out to dry and disrespected the fans. |

Wire fan in peace....
Really good appointment for you men, would have him back at the HJ in a heartbeat. I also think he will sort Connor out for you, he certainly turned Briers round for us.

Does Connor need sorting out?
One of our best performers, theres a fair few players who need sorting out apart from Connor.
I find it intriguing fans looking in always thonk Connors thr problem, what do you make of Taylor, Shaul, Houghton and Groffins performances |

I think what he means is Smith can get the best out of Connor on a more regular basis.
Briers was a good player for Wire before Smith arrived, but Smith helped him raise his game. |
