Sifting through this guff you could be right,I mean Morgan`s "You know" after every three words didn`t grate at all.
And as for Bomber saying something in favour of Gentle,you have to ask,what does Mc Crae know about R.L.? I mean,Gentle is only assistant coach to the Aussie team after all.
I like the idea of Rovers taking professional advice before making a move.Worked a treat in the Mason saga.

Not so sure that we will get the right man, our selection committee consisting of precisely zero minutes RL experience between them..

All very well doing psychometric testing and the like but who will be asking the "Rugby " questions..??

And after been interviewed by the Holy Trinity, the only likely attraction for any prospective coach will be the money on offer..

The Morgan situation had to be resolved but the modus operandi of Rovers since then with regards the new coach appointment and recruitment has been shocking..

And whoever gets the job it is going to be a sleeves up and graft job because we are looking a little short on quality for next season, it could indeed be a poisoned chalice if the natives get restless.., the best thing the new man could do would be to be straight with the fans from the off and forget the Morgan/Vella "we can get to Old Trafford" =#FF0000Na-AS..be honest and say its going to take two or three seasons to come right..

And yes Hutchie , Seibold is getting an interview, but i dont think even the Holy Trinity are that daft...

I've got a feeling that Phil Lowe might know a bit about RL.

He hasn't gone to Oz.

How do you work that one out? I was responding to someone who questioned an appointment made by mcrae (and presumably ratified by pearson) who is a long time first grade coach with extensive contacts throughout the world of RL, and suggesting that it would be worse than one made by 3 rovers fans, none of whom had ever played or coached at even a decent level to my knowledge.

Still, I'm sure those psychometric tests and all of that sports science knowledge will ensure they get the best man for the job

moriniho and wenger never played football

Yes they did.

It was the suggestion that it was been done via wikipedia etc.

As for whether they are qualified to judge whether someone is qualified, intelligence and being a decent judge of character is the important thing. The highest standard I played at was Malet Lambert inter-form 7s. And I was cack.
Hypothetically, if it ever came down to it I'd trust my judgement over [umost[/u professional players when choosing a coach.

I can't believe we're already into the playground "our coach is better than your coach" guff when:

a) Hull FC fans have yet to see how their coach performs
and
b) Hull KR fans don't yet know who the coach will be.

Hey, who am I kidding? Of course I believe it.

The wiki comment was obviously tongue in cheek but the point remains that mcrae will know more about the up and coming coaches in oz than 3 of rovers board members.

I'd quite happily let you make the rovers coaching appointment if it were up to me

Time for a new avatar eh?
MS Paint is calling

Yep, I agree McRae will know his stuff. And I took your point about Hudgell and his 'cronies' too seriously. But they've taken their time to find out what they need to know.

I think Pearson-McRae-Gentle have a good chance of making Hull much more successful.

I think we have cause for optimism too, if we get this appointment right - and I think they are going about it sensibly. It could all go to poop for either or both clubs - you never can tell. For now it looks promising.

Last time Hudgell went looking for a coach he came back with Morgan. He's earned our trust imo.

Why are you bowing to a lie?

Not quite true.., Hudge will tell you himself Morgan was suggested to him by Tony Smith, he was not on the original short-list..

I know, any ideas?

I was merely responding to the idiot who suggested that mcrae didn't know what he was doing and that rovers 3 man task force would be much better at finding the best coach. I think you took my comments out of context

So that shows then that Hudgell is prepared to listen to peoples views who may know more about the game than he does and not just appoint his own man.

I don't care who was on the original list, he appointed Morgan

Wasn't it Daniel Anderson who recommended Morgan?

He's a rovers fan, he's been brainwashed to bow to lies

No, definitely T.Smith.

1. Bartos appears to be one of yours.

2. This side of the wall, be judicious in your use of stuff like 'brainwashed'. And 'inbreds', 'windowlickers' etc. Ta.

No he is not, he is a FC fan
