What’s Mal Reilly up to these days?

Maybe he was on the Easter UK interview list with Dougie Laughton?

Let’s hope GH wasn’t visiting Syd Hynes down under.

I heard Dougie couldn’t make it, too busy picking his nose…

Not sure we could afford to keep him in fags these days.

The Mole (generally utterly wrong on anything to do with SL) has suggested that Hull KR may be after Seibold for the end of the season. Sounds iffy as he says they feel like they need a change of direction, when Tony Smith is clearly doing a bang up job for them. Just adds to the mix of names floating around. I assume we find out after the Board Meeting.

Silly season at the minute with the number of names rising daily. Truth is nobody knows probably cos the club doesnt know yet.

Board meeting today for Gary to make his recommendations to the board before an offer is made. Safe to assume whoever Gary chooses will get the nod from Caddick and co.

We will find out when club is ready. Safe to say it will be an upgrade on what we currently have.

Well seeing as there are only two directors, and GH is one of them and the other is his best mate…… think whatever Gary says go’s for most things!

There are several directors. Sue Ward, Nigel Chsmbers, Rob Oates and a few others.

Interesting isn’t it….you’d have thought any deal would be ‘In the bag’ if it’s only to recommend to the board and then go to ‘coach A’ to offer him the job….what if he’s had a change of mind?? That would just be typical of what we’ve become

Re: 2022 | Head Coach talk : Wed Apr 20, 2022 7:19 am  

That’s what I thought too, I’m not expecting an announcement today, otherwise the discussion with the board is just GH telling them what he’s done.

This must be the case. The terms must have been agreed, and contracts drawn up in principle. GH won't act within a vacuum, and the board will have had awareness over who he has been in contact with. I wouldn't be surprised if the meeting is simply ratifying the appointment, so there's shared ownership amongst the decision makers. The proposed coach may have even been asked to present to the board their plans for the first team... Having said that, maybe my imagination is getting a bit ahead of me.
