Need something a damned lot stronger to stop the rot, Aluminium Phosphide would be a better choice.

If you get rid of some of the symptoms then you are left with the source of the problems. Getting rid of Doak & Clark left us with the clown still at large. Sacking the clown will leave Logie still at the wheel, the issue is their incompetence when it comes to replacing those that are gone. Similarly if Logan gets sacked, and there is evidence from previous that those in power choose to back their mate over an open and transparent process then when can things ever improve?

As earlier suggested, start at the source of the rot, and let a few brooms sweep clean when it comes to the bluffers currently in charge.
I don't doubt the veracity of that, but as I have asked another gent or two - HOW? I don't know enough about the structure or workings of the major players involved to understand how one can actually make the changes.

From the outside, just like the D4 cabal, there appear to be people involved who are those that would potentially make the changes, the issue being turkeys & Christmas. They almost certainly have to vote themselves/their mates & longtime colleagues out.

Seems to me a self-perpetuating system, almost like a golf club council, every now and then you might get the odd guy going forward who you think might shake a few rotten apples out of the tree and change what needs to be changed. Then they find themselves in a small minority as others maintain their position with the help of those with an interest in staying within the inner circle.

The old story, if you have rule by committee, it's bloody difficult to get anything done.

the current RHI inquiry is a good example of how slick the Civil Service is here..

the fans are also to blame... they have blindly trotted up to Ravenhill, SUFTUMed, bought merchandise, beers food, religiously followed.... the franchise will only make changes when they are hit in the pocket. Sponsors will start to question things, Kingspan are shrewd enough and I'm sure they will not want to be associated with a failing brand....

fans however are like Trump supporters.... follow always regardless of lies and BS


Feck me it really is like the Trump administration at the hill....


IMPEACH KISS AND LOGAN NIIIIAAAIIIIIII!

Serves you right. I heard you lent them to Rodders and he knocked them on at the KFC drive through in Lisburn. He saw Logie and FOLK when he pulled up, they stopped in because they were on a worldwide search. Either that or they were getting Jonny McPhillips another drink because he is still on the touchline waiting to come on. FOLK forgot about him or wouldn't let him on the bus or something.

Rodders was meant to be at the Giants Causeway for a 30m sprint. He didn't go because Tommy Bowe was there already running against himself in front of a crowd of Japanese tourists. It's ok though because one of them can play ten and he's signed up now. And yes it's on TV. RTE are going to turn it into a new series.

I think all fans should rip up their season tickets and throw them on the pitch this week if we lose badly.
I don't have one but rest assured if I did I would do just that.
Think I might buy one just to rip it up.
If your not too sure about this action simply attach some elastic to your ticket so at least you'll get a feel for it.
Like Top cat used to do to Officer Dibble.

There have been many who have wisely pointed out the mistake commonly made

That change is for the better

Think the who

won’t be fooled again

Meet the New Boss
Same as the Old Boss

My previous post was pointing out to many morons here — get rid of Kiss
And then phone around for a DoR
Given the nature of the current squad — I doubt if there would be a queue at the door of any names of any coaches many here would want to employ .

All change for no change

Get rid of Kiss, you only need to phone around for a defense coach.

However Anscombe jr was right in his assessment of the clowns in charge, and a Kiss sacking is only a stay of execution for them.
