Exclusive Tony Smith video interview now on www.warrington-worldwide.co.uk Also his thoughts on the departure of Martin Gleeson.

Another good interview and impressive performance by TS. He just gets better and better. It's a really nice feeling at the moment knowing that we have the right man in charge finally (personally after years of calling for it with much derision) and that as every day passes, TS will be sorting our problems out one by one.

The only shame is that we completely wasted the zeitgeist of 2005-2008 period at the HWJ with the wrong set-up. I just hope we can build up the support base and regain the feel good factor again.

He always comes across really well.

Seems like Gleeson made his feelings known big time that he wanted out. TS happy to accommodate.

He seems perfectly happy that we have enough players at the club who can be chosen at centre, following the absence of Gleeson - but won't name names, despite Skents' best efforts to get it out of him.

Found it amusing when he said -
"You don't change 20 years of <silence>...... in 3-4 years"

neatly side-stepping the phrase- 'failure', 'under-achievement' etc, etc

Oh, and there is also no chance of Mathers being involved with the first-team over Easter.


p.s: Noticed he called you Gaz at the end, you've got your feet under the table there!

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!

It was three - four weeks actually!



Not so sure about the feet under the table!

He is certainly not afraid of making it clear when he doesn't want to answer a question which is fair enough.
Find this new approach of not naming teams or saying who is playing in what position quite interesting.
I think if I was in charge I'd name my squad and then change all the positions just before kick off to totally confuse the opposition.
e.g name Hicks as full back with Riley on the wing and then swap them!

My bad, typo.

Glad to see TS doing htings his own way .. Naming players in alphabetical order, Players wearing suits it his own mark and somehting which was needed, Im sure we will see marked improvement with every player as its very clear he takes not s##t

I liked the shot of the water sprinkler, really brought the whole piece together

Chuck Norris could change 20 years in 3-4 days, no problem.

I thought it a tad pretentious.

Tied the room together?

I loved the bit when he was asked if Richie Mathers would walk straight into the team - "Definetly not, he'll have to earn his stripes like everybody else" The man is a breath of fresh air.

Now thats what we've needed, a coach who doesnt take any crap

i only get sound, no idea how i get a picture

Here we go again!

The audio was out of sync all the way through wasn't it?

Great interview by Tony Smith. I like the way he presents himself in a calm manner and it is evident that he is doing the right things. Rome wasn't built in a day remember.

I know it's a little to early to ask this question, but I'll give it a go anyway. I remember just a few weeks ago, we were getting hammered by everybody and everybody wanted Lowes out, I remember a few people debating who we wanted, quite a few were against Smith after the world cup, and quite a few were pro-Hanley and a few others, stating we needed discipline and somebody to change the culture.

Now, I understand it's a little early to say and I can understand if some would rather wait to answer, but; do we now feel we've made the correct choice? Do we feel he's the man we've needed for so many years? After he let Gleeson go for not wanting to be here, and so on, do we feel the board have finally made the correct decision and appointed a man the club needs?

Without a doubt . Tony Smith will be the best thing that took place for the wire other than the move to the HJS. In Tony Smith we trust

oh most definatly. the man is world class.

Tony Smith is the best thing that could have happened to this club.

Some patience will be required but here we have the missing ingredient.

All we we need now is the other missing ingredients; good players.

Now, now.

No need for that.

looks like a man on speed and never looks at skents or the camera once. A part from that all seems good so far.
