Its better in my view to bring people in that have had nothing to do with failed incarnations of the Bulls,
Inc Duffy and Robbie Paul.
However bring in fresh thinking experienced managerial staff to take us forward.

I think Duffy must be a reincarnation of Rasputin, bloody hard to kill off!

I think there's a saying for that particular circumstance - something about "throwing the baby out with the bathwater", I think?

There are any number of good people involved with the failed club - even ones in fairly high positions. Somehow, I doubt very much that either of the two you mention really had any great input into how the financial side of the business was run. You can't really start from scratch, or at least, imo you're making it extremely hard for yourself if you do, and it's pointless when there is such rugby expertise already at hand.

I guess with all the turmoil at the club there had to be someone familiar with the "old" set up to assist setting up the "new". I must admit though I wasn't pleased to see Duffy swanning around outside the stand at the Keighley game in his club suit and tie. Whatever fate throws at the club he always appears to come up smelling of roses. I sincerely hope he's not on a big wage.

Russ is the new Laura Hutchinson. Just had a chat with him about player sponsorship for next year. Sounds pretty competent.

Duffy or Frank or what ever he wants to be known as needs to explain <potentially libellous statement deleted>
