Although not a Smith fan by any means I agree with you on the abuse aspect.
Think of his wife and kids who must realise what was going on with all the flack..
Its bad enough uprooting your family to the other side of the world with the kids losing their friends and wife her family.

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Wed Jun 19, 2024 3:47 pm  

Seems to be all pointing towards Rowley.
If not, then one of the recently sacked Aussies - Arthur or Demetriou
Please, please, please not Shaun Wane.

It's the right decision and it's been inevitable for weeks in my opinion. Still sad though. For a few giddy months back in 22 it really did look as if he was the man to return the club to it's rightful place. Seems like an age ago now. Personally I always liked the way he carried himself and never thought (as some did) that he was arrogant. I hope he can learn from this and come again. Massive pressure to get the next appointment right.

Does this mean we have somebody lined up or will it be Chev until the end of the season ?
