It's pretty obvious Murphy isn't going to be sacked off the one season, so not sure why you keep acting so surprised.

On Pat i'm glad he's helping out, as he's not one to let others just stall things he thinks needs changing.

Seems Murphy is bullet proof
With the turnover of coaching staff, whoever was appointed after MO'C was going to be nigh on bulletproof for last season and next as a minimum. Geordan happens to the one chosen.

Well I am pleased to see these latest appointments. Both Pat Howard and Jan McGinity will add significantly to the group.

Is it just hindsight or am I smelling a rat with all these in-house appointments? Has this sale been on the cards for longer than they are letting on that's why they've kept it cheap and cheerful and employed from within?

If the aim of the game was cheap and cheerful why would we hire McGinity or Howard.
Howard won't be that cheap especially given he will be travelling, I know he loves the club but it will take a lot of time from him.

McGinity was one of the biggest agents in the recent modern times, and has experience with contracts etc at both Premiership level and International level.
Again will not be cheap.

A mentor without any real responsilbility - I'm not sure about that . I'm also not sure about inventing another job for Glyn. There seem to be more Chiefs than Indians at the moment whilst we really need a top drawer Head Coach who can bang a few heads together to sort the mess out .

I would assume they'd be further announcements as both Ford and Blake only had contracts until the end of the season.

Board must go major change required, so club being sold.......must be a sell out, profiteering, lack of commitment by the Board.

Coaches out of their depth, so quality additions appointed.......not more ex Tigers, being done on the cheap.

Anyone else bored with the endless negativity :smt015 :smt015
If you don't go in hard it's not a tackle it's an insult.
