Anyone who suggests that Tony's time at Warrington is up needs a White Hot Poker shoving where the sun never shines.

He is the best Coach I have seen in my 30+ years of watching Warrington.

It's been fun.

Re: sack race : Mon Apr 21, 2014 4:51 pm  
This is Smiths first real test/problem if you discount when he first took over.
If we are looking to sack him at the first sign of trouble we might as well call ourselves Warrington Hotspurs.

He was Leeds best coach too but he seems to have a shelf life. One of the most senior players at Leeds told me that was evident just after he left for England. It looks like he was absolutely bang on.

Re: sack race : Mon Apr 21, 2014 5:13 pm  
A bit premature to talk about sacking the bloke. I think we all knew that this was going to be a season of transition of some sort.

It is interesting to see how he's going to go about it and if we can salvage something out of this season of 'transition'.

His first job is to get this team playing well, even the wins we've had this season I don't think you can say we played well in.

Re: sack race : Mon Apr 21, 2014 5:23 pm  
Absolute madness to hear talk of sacking Smith. I must admit to being a little bit more than none plussed puzzled in fact with our close season recruitment which you would have thought Tony Smith had a say in but he is the best man for the job of turning it round this season and plan for next given that one or two more of the old guard will be going and we will have had a look at our youngsters.

BTW not a great reason in itself but who's out there to replace him?
