100% with you on this. Noble is not the answer as I've posted before - I really don't understand the love in with him. His only decent effort in anything like recent history was with a patched up Crusaders side yet finishing 8th for Hull wouldn't be anywhere near enough a for lot of posters here. Also Crusaders were able to use overseas players exemptions, Wigan cheated the salary cap to avoid relegation and Salford's took some believing to say the least.

Daniel Anderson has stated he wont be a Head Coach again..

Daryll Powell. would cost a packet, but we would also need Orr & Sheridan as support staff...

Brian Smith intimated 2 months ago, IF asked, he'd love to return Hull..

You are all assuming Pearson knows who these people are?

I was thinking that Powel is the best UK coach, and realised that all SL teams now have UK coaches.
I know there is Tony Smith and Webster, but (afaik) they have UK citizenship.

I don’t think that it is just a coincidence, that the standard of play in SL has dropped quite a bit, when all SL teams now have UK coaches.

Catalans coach is french.

Noble would only be a stop gap for this season and if we do appoint a new one,he needs to be expierenced not a assistant like the last 5 coaches have.....counted Kear as a assistant as he was Bombers.

I don't get this automatic hostility to assistant coaches. Wane, Cunningham and Anderson are promoted assistants whose teams have done noticeably better than Hull recently. Maguire was only an assistant in Aus before he came to Wigan. Getting the right man is more important. In fact you can argue there's more sense in gambling on an assistant which no head coaching record than for plumping for one whose recent head coaching achievements are distinctly underwhelming (I'm thinking of a certain Mr Noble here) and only provide evidence that more of the same could be expected.

Promoting an assistant works at successful clubs where structures and culture are already in place and proven. We need to rebuild from the ground up as our existing structures and culture are failing. That's a job for an experienced coach.

Spot on. Does anyone thnk that Anderson, Wane or Cunningham would do any better than Radford at Hull FC?
It was expecting too much for an inexperienced assistant coach to rebuild the culture of the club and put the systems in place. We need someone proven in the task at hand. Gentle wasn't up to it either in my opinion.
The fact people are looking to Noble or McNamara says how bad things are.

People are suggesting Noble and McNamara because they are realistic targets, there's no point suggesting we should go for Wayne Bennett when we can't afford him and he'd have no interest what so ever.

Maybe Tony Smith fancies a change? Agar already in place for succession at Wire, win win for me!

THIS would bring the crowds back... and galvanize the whole club

Tony Smith coach, Brian Smith Director of rugby?

I mentioned anderson after gentle got the boot, i then mentioned it about 2 weeks ago and got shot down by some moron asking me why he was a proven winner as id posted earlier in the night....

I think you could do better than radford,but agree with your 2nd point if your hoping for mcnamara he' as bad as radford.

I was going to suggest Rohan Smith as assistant coach

Family Club!

Add Keegan as Conditioner.. full set..

Remind us again what Anderson has achieved recently.

Or Brian Smith for that matter, Roosters were diabolical whilst he was in charge.

David Kidwell could be the answer

A damn site more than the tosh weve had since he left saints thats for sure, proven winner end of

Didnt they finish bottom?

If we did end up replacing radford , I doubt very much we"d end up with a proven coach who as won stuff as surely he"ll be in a job , plus I don't think our next coach needs to have won trophys . We just need someone who knows what he's doing and can improve us as a team and also individuals . Hindsight is a wonderful thing , but if radders does eventually go , the choice of our next coach could be the most important decision our club will make for years . We all have our choices but at the end of the day , it will be pearsons choice , which doesn't fill me with much confidence after his previous choices and ideas .
