I'd take, yet another, humiliating loss if it meant getting shut of the poundland coach and getting a quality one in.
Doesn`t look like that`s going to happen and I reckon he will stay until at least the end of this season.

Rohan Smith insists he has no fears over his job security despite Leeds Rhinos' poor run of form.
But Smith stated that he has no concerns about his job and that he has the support of Gary Hetherington to oversee the long-term vision they both have.
"I feel pressure to win every game that I've ever coached," he said. "So whatever else is happening outside of here doesn't change me, I'm doing my best and hungry to win, regardless of results.
"We chat every day about where we're at, form, performance, recruitment, retention, how we do things around the place and that's not dependent on last weekend's results. Those chats happen every day, every couple of days and those chats will continue to be had.
"For sure, Gary and I talk a lot and are aligned with what we're trying to create here. There's no issues there. There's always pressure in coaching but no more than I put on myself."
That said, Smith was happy to acknowledge the need to turn around the club's current run of form.
"Massively. Every week we prepare to play this weekend, we're not preparing for the future. The decisions we make on roster and retention and whether kids are playing reserves or going out on loan, they're longer-term decisions but the preparation each day and week is about this weekend."
