Not trolling here at all. Is the complete re-building of the structure a job for the first team coach, or is this a football manager type role, or even the directors? The Alex Ferguson type role is pretty scarce these days.

I've just told my boss that I now intend to build for the future, and expect to be judged accordingly.

I'm sure he won't mind if our customers stop using us because my current output is of an unacceptable standard.

I think the answer is a clear no.

I've been one of the sack McNamara now briggade, look back through my posts you'll see I've been less than generous towards his tenure as head coach. But after last night, my opinion has changed.

We've been spolied to some degree by the Noble era and think success is a guarantee. It isn't.

We all heard a few truths about the Noble era last night, and Red and I learned a few more truths afterwards. The whole thing was built on sand, I would suggest - unlike now which is being built to be sustainable and enduring.
