If Casiley could guarentee that he wouldnt put us into administration, would sack Mick Potter and would offload current stars then he would have my support. Until he does that then he's just making a lot of noise.

Coulby sounds like another Caisley mouthpeice IMHO.

What have you got against Potter and the current stars?

Coulby has introduced a third alternative, into the received wisdom-narrative that Caisley either went because he saw what was coming, or he went because he had lost the confidence of the board (for reasons variously speculated upon but never able to be substantiated).



I still say, as I said at the time, that his leaving cannot have come with much pre-warning; and that it cannot have been as a result of a coup by Hood to oust him and secure the job for himself. Regarding the latter, Hood went to such pains at the time to ensure he was titled only "Acting Chairman" and to make it clear he was looking for someone else to step in. He COULD have been being extremely disingenuous there, but I did not think so then and I still can't see it. Although I must admit little now would surprise me.



Coulby SEEMS to be proferring the idea a "third way" to get them through the present crisis - all the bloody major shareholders cut out arguing and save the ship first. And, presumably, hold the trials later. That is precisely what the likes of me have been saying, so you have to take what he is reported as saying seriously, IMO. Whatever his underlying motivation might be. You don't need an EGM for that. You need a table, some chairs, a few cups of tea - and a willingness to listen.

I think its a mobile mistype

No none at all. Having been involved in producing business plans for 20 years these would not get on any Boardroom Agenda. that wasnt my point though was it?

100% correct

Yeah Im sure I corrected it to say wouldnt, on both occasions. Obviously not, but I did mean wouldnt.

I really hope this could happen as it seems a much better way of handling the situation

Corrections aside





Given the trouble we've had on the playing and coaching side in recent years I'd be upset if Potter was shown the door. Its taken an age to get this team looking anything like cohesive and is still work in progress. I'd be upset to see that risked by the unnecessary introduction of another coaching methodology at this stage



Unless its George Galloway and his undeniable influence on our results

The assumption there is that Mick Potter is looking for another deal. He seemed pretty keen on only doing 2 yrs then going back down under. Whilst I'd prefer him to stay on next year if he's determined to go back to OZ then Noble would be a decent replacement. The team Potters built fits pretty well into style of rugby Noble tends to play IMO. Thats assuming we manage to hand onto all the players during the coming months of course.

Appointed chairman in 1989, he presided over the most successful period in the club’s history, winning four Super League titles, two Challenge Cups and being crowned World Club champions three times. But that all came at a cost and the Bulls’ annual losses had become unsustainable by the time his reign came to an end this thread from 2 years ago most posters would see if their views are similar to now viewtopic.php?f=19&t=447425&tsmp=1334923896 Although Caisley's Dad and Diligaff have not been on for a while
