Brilliant. Basically Des gets challenged and he plays 'the big I am' and tells him to do one. I don't blame Lee for asking whether he's got a job or not, he's got kids to support. So according to the above quote, Schofield needs to have his chairmans approval before they sign a player, and Johnstone does all the interviews. Interesting. Well Denis Betts does ours.....Millward does Leighs...Calland Fax....
Barrow (or should I say King Des) didn't have one game to judge Doran, he's been playing for years, in last years dream team and our player of the year. I reiterate, a mistake by Barrow in my opinion.
He's on trial for christ sake, who says Des or anyone at Barrow was challenged?. Sounds a bit more like his agent got pushy wanting a decision and he got the only one any sensible club would make after only being at the club for such a short period and seeing him play once for the team.
If its such a poor decision by Barrow, who already have Catic, Ostler, Fletcher, Knowles and Luisi in the back row, what does it say about Widnes who released their player of the year? And if you are so concerned about his kids well being, were you on here criticising Widnes for making their dad unemployed?
Finally, are you so naive or ignorant as to believe that any coach signs players without the approval of the chairman? This isn't a situation peculiar to rugby.
You may want to consider what you are about to post before spouting drivel like this in future. Got to be one of the least factually correct and substantiated threads on this forum.
