A coach doesn't run the finances of a club, the board do.
If a coach is in demand, that means he is doing a good job.

We need a coach to implement the foundations of a solid structures throughout the club, Smith will get the players doing the basics to a good standard.

Sorry, you clearly don't know what Smith did to FC.

Care to elaborate.

Don't the Chairman /board control the finances?

So put us right then...you seem to "allege" that you know enough about Brian and Jason Smith.

I know plenty about both, but people don't like to hear about it, they'd rather hero worship, so I leave them to it.

Do you honestly think Brian Smith is the answer?

At this moment in time - a resounding YES.

Who is your answer?

As it stands, Gentle, with a fully fit squad and players pulling their weight.

Who mentioned "hero worship"...Smith took us out of the doldrums and Jason Smith for the 1st 2 seasons was simply a class apart.Now to other things about them...Brian Smith is not the answer as he has a habit of buggering off after a couple of yrs,if we was to bin Gentle then it has to be Daniel Anderson and Jason Smith should have been released once his "injurys" got too much...i put injurys as you seem to know a lot more.

I know what I saw, I believe what was agreed with the RFL at the time. Anyway, it's irrelevant, it was many years ago.

So, IF Michael Maguire became available, don't sign him as "he walked away when it suited him".

i still believe gentle needs time he has good ideas i do believe he will turn it round but how long will that take?? if the season pans out the way it is you could be seeing around 7000 passes or less next year and there's only so long Pearson will want to keep losing money and getting nothing back for it!! financially the clubs in a good place but as soon as he leaves were in deep sh*t

you need to stop taking the pills.

you need to respect people's opinion. - and stop being insulting.

So, you don't respect my opinion that Brian Smith isn't the answer, yet I am being insulting?

if you don't want to have your opinion challenged, I suggest you stay off a public forum.

Gentle is going nowhere any time soon
