| This has the same shambles look as when Chester was sacked to be replaced by Webster. Hope there is a better plan this time.
The new man could do worse than bench McGuire who has been awful most games. Him and Keinhorst are awful defenders. McGuire has no direction he just play one tackle at a time with no planning ahead. I'd sign Drink water up now and let him run the plays.

| Quote His Bobness="His Bobness"Tim is a great man and what a stellar career he has had. He has had stress issues in the past and nowadays he is just a little too calm and forgiving...IMO.
Between his successes he twice coached North Queensland to bottom place and the wooden spoon, we just couldn't wait to see if he got an unwanted hat trick at Rovers. With so many positive things happening at Rovers relegation would be intolerable.
Sheens was going to be replaced next season anyway but it seems the embarrassing display against 11 men was the final straw.
No one goes on forever and Tim Sheens has had a very long and illustrious career as a coach. I hope he puts his feet up and has a long and happy retirement.'"
Nice post, shelter from the storm.

| Right decision, Rovers have not improved since he came in, still around same league position and same issues.
I don't buy he did well to get you back up and keep you in the league, any half decent coach would have done that with the budget he had, struggled at times against championship sides.
Next appointment is massive, hugh gamble to go with Ford, not tested, done well, but a lot of success at York has been built on loaning SL players or using DR.
Morgan would be an interesting appointment, did really well last time, but should you either go back, will he be able to recruit the calibre of NRL players he did last time.
Tony Smith would be a good shiut, Wane as as well (But might be priced out), Watson at Salford would be a good choice as he has taken them as far as possible.
What about Mcnamara?

Dave you’ve virtually named every single coach I disagree slightly it wasn’t easy getting promoted it’s ok going through the motions but come the middle 8s it’s the hard part and we did it comfortably and then he kept us up the problem came this season where he signed better players but we seem worse I think we had enough to finish 8th but looks like we’ll be fighting London to stay up

| Here's a left field shout - Would Jon Wilkin fancy coming back home for his first coaching role perhaps...? He talks a good game.

What about Mcnamara?'" he managed to get us promoted via middle 8s competing with teams teams who had a 1 million quid more budget from central funding than ourselves ,not easy,, and to keep us up again not easy considering tight finances, he hasnt done anything out of the ordinary by any means just what he had to do ,agree its time for a new approach ,certain things have improved under him ,other things havent, he will leave with no major issues either way for me

Reports already from Wests Tigers that Tim Sheens would be considered for Head of Football to replace the departing incumbent.
Craig Sandercock I believe is still on the coaching staff there.

| The club have just released the following statement.
Hull Kingston Rovers can confirm that Tim Sheens has left his position as head coach with immediate effect.
The Australian spent two-and-a-half seasons at KCOM Craven Park, lifting the club from the Championship back up to the Betfred Super League in his first year, before consolidating the team’s status in the 2018 campaign.
Sheens took charge of 84 games, winning 47 matches, drawing two and losing 35.
A recent run of six defeats in seven league games during the current campaign, which leaves the club sat next to the bottom of the league, and an exit from the Coral Challenge Cup at the weekend, has prompted a change.
Further comment will be made in due course.

| Feel bad for the guy, as he did a lot for us.
However, I do think we need some new hope and energy from somewhere. Sheens leaving is no guarantee of it arriving, but we can but hope... for hope.
He has my best wishes, fwiw.

I agree with you but let’s be honest rovers could not carry on like we have I know we have had a lot of injuries but so have other clubs we have some good players so now we need a good coach to drag us out of this mess
