Not what I've heard and not what I've seen. Quins have got the opportunity to develop an incredible resource of young British talent from the 15 mill that live in London and the South East. Yeah, it could end in tears but if it does it won't be for lack of effort and commitment from Brian Mac IMO.

And you would pay them how, precisely? Given you'd have spent the coaching budget paying off the existing staff...

The club have no money? Then I think they'd better bloody find some quick.

Or we can keep mcnamara and his special needs coaching staff and watch as they drive the club further down and down and down with bottom of the league cast offs, poor tactics and general lack of direction.

It's been often pointed out that Bradford Bulls has always tried to attract the family as supporters. But how many kids are going to want to keep going to watch a team that gets a hiding every week? I know there was a little lad stood near me who kept saying to his dad that it was boring cos bradford were losing. How many other kids round the ground are saying that? How many people are only at the game because they've got kids who want to go? And if those kids don't want to go that's a big chunk of cash you kiss goodbye.

I just hope Peter Hood is thinking about this sort of thing

And your suggestions for how they do that?

The only one I have been able to put forward is the one that is in the hands of the supporters, which is to turn up and try and swell the coffers a bit.

If its boring cos your team are losing, then given on average a team will lose half its matches some people are going to be pretty bored?

At least the FC support did their bit for our cause today.

Why would he leave a great club like Quins to coach lower level players like Sykes, Worrincy and Sherriffe again? Dream on. Keep looking. You may have bigger attendances but what else do you offer? I would imagine financially we're as stable as you are and our squads looking really good and young.

You should give Lowes a go, great player for you, and this weekends Wire result shows it wasnt down to him they were doing so poorly.

Why not follow Leeds & Wire and get a coach of international calibre. I bet you could attract Bobby Goulding.

Great idea. No really.
