Lee Radford gave me the best day of my life when he waived that cup at me and for that I will be eternally grateful and if anyone is collecting to finance a statue to him my donation will be in the post.
However he's a great light touch coach in that he is brilliant when coming into the Samoa camp and giving massive added value he was the same in amateur rugby but his failing at Hull Fc was that he got too close to some of the players and they knew that, in 2016/17 the group was almost self regulating because of the personalities and ambitions that where within the squad but after that some of his 'mates' took advantage and indeed some followed him to Cas with disastrous effect. He was given massive resources had the Midas touch with his 2015/2016 recruitment but otherwise he spent a lot and achieved little.
As for Rowley well wouldn't that be great, wouldnt that show us the ambition we crave from our great club and wouldn't it give us all some hope and a great deal of trust in our new football manager??, but I'm told its some way off being done yet, we aint great at getting our first targets and often in the past the press getting a bit too excited about things has scuppered deals.Whats more he is a big fish in a small pool at Salford, hero worshipped and comfortable and looking at our current state its a massive risk to take to come here for the the most toxic job in the British game following the Coach we have had and had to get rid of. It would in one fell swoop get the fans back on side but as my old mum used to say 'let's not get our curtains up just yet!'
