There is a saying: "If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you always got".
This is how it has been now for 18 months at Odsal. Same old same as.
My real concern now is that Jimmy should resign but who is there to take over. A knee jerk reaction could be just as bad, It is clear that Jimmy won't be offered a new contract and he must know that along with some other coaches who would possibly apply.
If Glen Morrison is our number 1 choice we should get him now.
If he isn't and we have no clear idea then Jimmy leaving will leave us in a mess as there is no obvious replacement in the club other than Disko but he may be handing in his notice soon if he gets the Batley job.
I said the other day and will repeat my feeling that Jimmy should say he will see out his contract and this gives the Bulls a chance to advertise without rushing.
I believe Glen would apply but I would also get Robbie to give Matty Elliot a call. I wouldn't go for B Smith as he only does short term as he did with us when Matty did all of the work. He has gone down in my estimation.
We won't attract a current coach of a top team such as Tony Smith as he is soon out of contract so it probably needs to be an up and coming coach or an older one who wants to help the club. I don't think Potter would touch us after his work without pay and how we treated his assistant (Franny) who stood by him when it got tough.
Mr green will be having a very uncomfortable evening knowing he needs to make a massive decision either way. Get it right and the enthusiasm will return very quickly. Get it wrong and ............. who knows what will happen to the Bulls if the supporters walk away in large numbers.
The best we can hope for is that Mr Green has already made the decision and it turns out to be a good one and which pleasantly surprises us all.
