I understood him perfectly but then again Ive been in far too many marketing meetings where these type of daft analogies are common place

I really hope for both his sake and the clubs that his fluent "twaddleish" can lift the players. If so his reputation as a slightly bananas RL shaman will be cemented. If not he'll soon find out how very fickle fans can be and his coaching aspirations might suffer a huge setback. Hoping for the former.

Rumours on Twitter is that there is unrest in the Hull KR camp, McGuire to come back to us as Number 2 to work with JJB then under whoever the new coach is.

And Sean Long to leave

Is this not exactly the sort of back to front decision making that's got us into this mess? A new head coach needs to have the freedom to bring in his own team.

No issues with Long leaving, he's been ineffective at best.

I suppose, although it doesn’t automatically mean it won’t work though. McGuire would be a big asset to the club IMO

Also saying Tony Smith wants to come back but wants a 4 year deal, Leeds want s 2 year deal with the idea McGuire takes over after those 2 years.

All sounds like BS to me!

It does to me too, but on timescales 4 years isn't too far off the mark IMO. I don't know the ins and outs of current player contract lengths, but assuming a reasonable spread, it'll take a minimum of 2 off seasons to reshape the playing squad to anything like what's needed, then time to really bed in. We've really got ourselves into such a hole, having wasted the last 3-4 years. In terms of getting us back to even competing, as the saying goes, I wouldn't start from here.

I see Fev are leading against Catalan at H/T. If only we could get such a good coach

JJB is a master of clichés, analogies and twaddle.
It`s as if he is low on intelligence and thinks if he can throw in some thing or use a big word or two it will make him look clever.
I`d be happy with McGuire coming back as he has got to be better than Long.
Be it under Carr or Smith.
I really don`t want JJB or Walker coaching at any level.
Looking at the team today it`s not too dissimilar to an Agar team.

What does that have to do with anything at all, not even relevant.
