A really positive signing for me and exactly what we need. Well experienced and no ties to the club and not looking like a cheap option. Hopefully he will bring a fresh approach.

Wasnt Ellis the pathway development coach?

He is also one of the most qualified coaches in the Uk and a former half back.
Think this is a bit of a coup for the club
Very good appointment by Radford

Or just bring in a current head coach to be the attack coach?

Ahem.......

It says on the BBC that he's going to coach the reserves. Is he doing this as well as the first team attack job I hope, as I can't see him coming just to run the reserve team or is it an error on the beebs part

Club website, announcing his appointment.....

….Purtill, who is one of the highest qualified coaches in the country, will be a new Assistant Coach at Hull FC, where he will focus on attacking structures, as well as taking the lead role with the club’s Emerging Talent Squad.
This will also include the head coach role of the club’s reserves team, utilising his extensive experience in this field to help bring through the next generation of young players.....

Sounds like we are going with what we have so Purtill a replacement for Horne,and that’s it.Either Radford doesn’t want to many voices or AP not wanting to spend extra on the coaching department

… or, as AP has already stated, they'll only appoint someone when the right calibre of coach becomes available.
