Hmmmm, jobs for the boys!

Whats that got to do with anything? Are you saying you're influencing the game and score?

Nope. You've just wasted the thick end of £50 and seen us concede 100 points to Wigan. Go you.

so apart from the noble few, it looks like we are all in favour of saying "thanks very much lee"

but 1 out will mean 1 in

who would be the best and most realistic man for the job?

noble
anderson (i would like this if he was able to bring in all his own coaching staff)
morgan
a return for kear (very long shot and would only probably be a temp measure)
would wayne bennett like a new challenge (and let's face it this would be a challenge)
steven kearney

any more realistic ones? i would say the chances of a top flight nrl coach coming would be very slim

Don't be daft. None of them would qualify for 'Club Hull'.

Who would qualify under Pearson's rules?

- Steve Mc.

- Paul Cooke.

Ummm.. - Andy Last?


Oh sod it, perhaps he can be persuaded that ex -employees count and are desperately passionate ahout Hull.

That would give us

- Kearney

- Peter Sharp

- Peter Gentle

- Agar

- John Kear

- Steve Mc again (bugger)

- Karl Harrison

-Jon Sharpe

Ummmm...

I'd take Kearney or P Sharp, neither of which would happen.

Well, it's all Adam's decision. Perhaps he'll stick with Radford. Perhaps he has to, wih the Club Hull rules, and all.

As someone else posted on here a bit back, theirs 26 top rugby league head coach jobs in the world! Simply as to be a top top coach who wants a job, pay the cash and get him

cant believe i saying this but id go for justin morgan! got the best out of average players!

Yeh its better than what we have at present , just don't like the rumours of his social activities

It was solely Pearsons appointment and It's gonna cost him either way . Get your hand in your pocket and give us a coach what knows what he's doing or loose the £ off the turnstiles . The way Radford is bumbling about with this team will send us back to the dark ages !

Motu is on the phone to his mate Stephen Kearney.

I hope.

Kearney didn't do well with Parramatta, but then their squad was dreadful. At least with him he would instil some pride and passion and would do it without shouting at players or sending them to Doncaster for being naughty.

I also think he would come if we offered him the right money. He has been in the New Zealand set up for long time now, afaik he enjoyed his time here, and is mates with Motu.

If he is allowed to bring in the back room staff he wants then it could be successful imo.

Was thinking about Kearney last night. Proper competitor.

I am amazed that AP has positioned himself in such a way that he is finding it difficult to remove Lee. When he appointed him he should have been less vocal in his support and worked on the basis that this is a risk and we shall see how it works.

I have thought a lot about why Gentle was removed and although we had some poor performances I felt we were gradually heading in the right direction. All I can think is the collective of Gentle, McRae and Howes really got under the skin of AP. He likely felt he had been taken for a ride with some of the players signed and the contracts given. Was that Gentle's fault or was he more a hostage to the fact McRae was DOR and had final say.

I understand some people saying Radford is playing the kids but these kids need a top coach to learn from and the right club surroundings to come into. I didn't think when he was appointed he was the right man and that hasn't changed one bit and lacks serious man management skills

I wonder if Pearson was smart enough to put any minimum achievements into Radford's contract, like top 8 qualification. If so this might reduce any likely payout for getting rid of him. Just a thought.

Quick and easy fix - Noble!

I will do it myself in the short term, I reckon I cannot do any worse.

why inflict misery on donny,what have they done to deserve radders?

D.anderson s.kearney or j.morgan. Go get them pearson

He said he would walk if he couldn't do the job, well it's clear he cannot. Pearson should bite the bullet and sack him first thing Monday morning. With all the pubs Radford has, if one of his managers was to continually serve crap beer, not give the customers some entertainment to encourage them to go to the pub, and openly criticise and bully his staff in front of the customers, he would soon get rid. Where is his 'professional pride'? look in the mirror Lee, you are undoubtedly a man of courage, do the right thing and resign and retain some self respect while you can.

Great sentiment but would you resign from a say £100K a year job and get nothing when you could be sacked instead and get a full pay off?

Can we now officially declare this as bad as the Peter Walsh / Len Casey era's because it certainly feels like it.

In fact I fully expect Scooby Doo to turn up, rip Radford's mask off and reveal Len Casey.

It was Radford's own words after the 0.7 loss to Widnes (I think) that if he couldn't do the job he'd walk.......He has to be true to his word/himself to retain self respect and professional credibility.

radford believes he is doing a good job and it's all down to the playing personnel

Agreed Seb. We could do a lot worse. We are doing a lot worse!

Think you are spot on Jake. I'm sick of people wittering on about too many players tied up on big contracts, no half backs, not his team blah blah blah....

A half decent coach should be doing better with this group of players. Radford is too far up his own backside to see his own failings
