Quite untrue. I am obsessed with the crappy job McNamara was doing at the club I support. Now that we are finally seeing the back of him I have no reason to care what he does. He can screw up anyone he wants to now, at least it is not Bradford.

And now I'll tell you the truth, shall I? The fact that our coach has done so well, that he has been awarded the highest accolade in British RL - Coach of the national side - really, really, REALLY grrrrrates with you, as it is in complete contradiction to your obsessive crapness theory. You never thought you would see any such thing. You were confident he'd be out of a job - any job - as soon as the rest of the world realised that you alone know what you're talking about where coaching RL is concerned.
In a word - "wrong". You were wrong. Deal with it.

Tell me then. Who else wanted the job?
I does not grate with me in the slightest as he is clearly doing what is best for him but there was simply no-one of any great calibre remotely interested in the job.
And if he has done SO well ( ) then why are we in the position we are in at the moment. If you actually believe that taking a side from World Champions to Super League also rans in four years is a good job then clearly you must be content with minimum.
He was arguably the best of a bad bunch linked to the England job that highlights more the lack of interest in the position rather than the quality of the coach that got the job.
Still, he will be ok - at least in the Tri Nations you cannot finish lower than third.

Any coach worth his salt. Obviously.
Quote ="mystic eddie"I does not grate with me in the slightest '"
yeah, right. Keep telling yourself that.
Quote ="mystic eddie".. but there was simply no-one of any great calibre remotely interested in the job. '"
Another eddie classic.
* Do you know who was interested in the job? No, of course not, you have not the faintest clue. yet claim to know. You probably believe that you Do know.
* "of any great calibre" - even if someone was interested, to you, they need to be "of great calibre" as defined in your head. Otherwise you convince yourself your proposition is true, whoever may have expressed an interest
Quote ="mystic eddie"And if he has done SO well (
) then why are we in the position we are in at the moment. '"
5th in SL, with no money and a no-hoper no clue coach? I can see how that small nugget upsets you, but don't put your fingers in your ears and shout, pretending it's not happening
Quote ="mystic eddie"If you actually believe that taking a side from World Champions to Super League also rans in four years is a good job then clearly you must be content with minimum.'"
Another eddie classic, coming thick and fast today. Put up a straw man, the more wildly inaccurate and ludicrous the better, and then cite it in support of your straw case. .
Quote ="mystic eddie"He was arguably the best of a bad bunch linked to the England job that highlights more the lack of interest in the position rather than the quality of the coach that got the job.'"
Breathtaking eddie classic. You have NO information as to who may or may not have been interested, or available, or affordable, or spoken to, much less whether these individuals had a "lack of interest" - yet still you come on here pontificating as if you had all the inside gen. You need to get a grip on these delusions, mate, and as i have told you before, just learn to live with the fact that the man you claim can't coach is now in post in our top coaching job.
Oh, and yes, I told you so. You had it in your sig for a while.

And rightly so, as grass has no colour. You think it's normally green - right? Well, it's not. To a normal human eye, it [ireflects [/igreen when white light is shone on it, but without that, no colour that you can see is emitted or reflected.
And anyway we can't see 99.9% of the spectrum, at all, so even when we can see the green, we are only seeing 0.1% or less of available wavelengths.
And even this green we can "see" is only an illusion caused by nerve receptors in the eye sending a signal to the brain which it interprets as an experience that you call "seeing green". It's not real.
Plus, if you want to call grass a colour by reference to the few wavelengths humans can detect, then I reckon every other colour has a better case. The grass doesn't like green, it reflects it away. It likes all the other colours and keeps them. You aren't seeing the grass, you are seeing the light it declines to accept.

| Suffice it to say that i do not know how FA can have a go at me elsewhere claiming that i cannot possibly know things yet he seems to think he can read my mind. McNamara getting the England job does not grate in the slightest. Why would it? It means he is finally leaving Bradford and that makes me happy. So he got the England job? As he had been the assistant that is hardly a big shock! Englands' loss is our gain and despite some bizarre claims on here, McNamara still has more questions than answers. He has won nowt and England will pose no threat at all to the Aussies with him in charge. I am delighted he is away and I look forward to seeing the puzzled looks on the faces of the Aussies as they line up against the likes of Worrincy and Chris Feather.
