My point exactly. The sacking is nothing. It's the replacing that counts. To replace the promising unproven coach of three years ago who - at least at first team level - has failed to live up to expectation, with a promising unproven coach now, would be a knee-jerk of the highest order and would at best risk and at worst invite another three years of disappointment.

Fair points. But sacking McNamara would not be knee jerk in the slightest. He has had more than enough time.

What happens next for you is to move on like we did.

Ace! Some re-building advice from a Crusaders fan. Have we really fallen that far?

Sacking without a plan for replacing with better would be knee-jerk. Sacking with a realistic and costed plan for replacing with better would not be knee-jerk.

Not this season. Its dead and gone. Well have to live with Maccas contract up to 2009 end when it runs out as does his assistants and there are no indications as yet from management that they will be retained.
If there is to be rebuilding of the coaching structure it will be 2010.

That's true. It's dull on here when we win.

I thought it had been ascertained that the contracts are up at the end of 2010?

It's never been fully verified.
