I do agree with this.

Suppose our board could just give Paul the Head coach role and then appoint a General Manager.



I think that is what is likely to happen.

This is what iv'e thought from the day Adamson and Blackmore were mentioned.

Me to.

Hope so.

I can see the following happening at the club over the next 18 months.....



RB to become coach/GM.......Rowley as assistant



Next season U18 and U20`s to start up again



RB to become GM only........Rowley to become head coach (in 12-18 months time)



New commercial manager appointed







What people don't realise is that you need all these positions filled to be successful in SL application (as Widnes had to do), the GM and head coach cannot be the same person at SL level I believe....no SL club employs 1 person to do both roles and I believe due to the current money position the club finds themselves in at the mo is behind the joint role that's on offer at present - that will change as I've said after the coming season to be in line for the SL application.



We don't have a choice really if we want to take the step up to the next level.

That'll do for me Jay and if we collect trophies on the way even better.

well on current showing would be happy with rowley in charge of team affairs, i am not being 2 faced, i always said i did not want paul as coach, but he has obviously learnt a hell of a lot from millward, and as previously stated by me happy for him to take the job especially without the added problem of having his father as ceo.

So Richie Blackmore wants an administration role, yeah and the moon is made of blue cheese.



Alan I've no doubt we need a GM so why not properly advertise for one rather than get a coach in through back door

Can't be bothered to read through all the pages, but can anyone post who decided on the squad we have. Seems strange that the new players have been brought in without the new coach advising - if he becomes the coach that is.

Needs sorting whichever way this goes.

At a guess i'd say Rowley and freer have sorted the squad out

Lets face it what would any antipodean know about championship rugby players anyway they pour sarcasm over SL ones as it is.
