I don’t think there’s any money left in the club, and we are reliant on the good will of one or maybe two local benefactors now.
We are probably on the absolute edge of going bust at the moment, and so the BOD have to be very careful, both financially and with respect to making changes.
The judgement to be made by our BOD is simply that, will getting shot of Coyles make us even more vulnerable financially, and also vulnerable with respect to players making themselves available, (or not).
As an example, todays situation is directly opposite to the one the BOD faced when getting rid of Ged. Then he had lost the changeroom, for some reason apparently Coyle has not, and so some / certain players may be ‘his men’and support him. We are already a ‘bare bones’ squad and so at this point the BOD can’t afford to do anything which would cause 4, 5 or more players to pack in or just ‘stop playing’. (Perhaps turning out but not giving anything I mean). Then there's his link with the DR arrangements with Widnes....would that arrangement persist or not ?
I like to think I support our BOD, but they have to admit that they have got us into this mess, probably by lack of appropriate action at the right time.
We are short of players, but having said that the ones we have are all individually capable enough, but don’t play anywhere near their potential as a team........and that has to be down to us having an ineffectual coach.
Coyle has had a whole season to sort himself and the team out, and as of today has only manage to deliver the worst performing team in our league......to me that means he has to go, but only if by doing that we don’t ruin the club at the same point in time.
None of us want relegation, but that and re-building from the bottom up has to be better than us going out of existence.
