Has Jowitt left the Rams or is it going to be a lateral move for Thornton? Can't see him leaving unless it's for a head coaching job.

Quite surprised that Basil didn't appoint him assistant really. I wonder if Thornton is happy being away from the limelight. Didn't he cite junior development as his reason for taking the job in the first place?

Gary is extremely well thought of down the lane and I can't see him leaving any time soon.
COYF!

Understand he left when he knew Tansey had signed for you. lol

Best of luck in your new job, spoke to a few people who thought well of the guy, shame to see him leave.

Re: Gary Thornton : Mon Jul 09, 2012 6:21 pm  

I told you that Gary was gonna go,He apparently chose the York job when it was offered because the Rams who were his preffered choice of clubs were hesitating decision wise regarding keeping or releasing their present coach Jowwit
Good luck to GT as i believe that he has done a great job down the lane,i would have personally liked to have seen him move up the coaching pecking order at our club

I have heard that the Dewsbury Rams are becoming very interested in our academy coach Gary Thornton,he would be a big loss to our club imo if he went

word has it that he would take it too if it was offered as he's not convinced at all by Basil's coaching and how he's handling the club and it's players at present,apparently the whole coaching team don't rate him one bit and reckon that the club has gone back years from when matterson was at the club and that the after effects of this will show up down the line

Should we be concerned about Basil if this is true?

It looks like GT was right all along in wanting out of the club and that what i was told back in July was correct too in regards to Basil

My choice of coach would be Karl Harrison if/when Basil departs as i believe that he did a very good job at Salford but was unfairly dismissed despite doing a very good job,he would certainly stand no nonsense from our players who clearly are more concerned about which beer run they are doing next than doing our great club any great service out on the field,it makes you realise just how good a coach TM was doesn't it
