Trouble in Camp?

Post by cjp »

Heard today that after the Munster game a member of the backroom staff read the riot act which didn't sit well with dumb and dumber. The players have told McCall and Clarke there rubbish. Ulter's Irish contingent approached McCall and Clarke's boss at the IRFU asking for change to be made, he then spoke to McCall but was ignored and the out look for next year is another under achieving season with unhappy players.

When you lose the backing of the players it is time to go.

Different circumstances Mack. I agree with CJP's assessment about another under achieving season. Mind you I think it is significant that Allen Clarke has been moved sideways to Dublin thus it is important that they get the forwards coach absolutley right. This is a big big appointment in terms of our future prospects.

How many................all or just a few?

Sorry cj............while all of this may be true, there just aren't enough hard facts here to have any confidence in your post.

I've no reason to doubt this particular ex-backroom staff member whoever they are, but did it ever cross you're mind that he/she may have an axe to grind.

That comment of yours happens to tie up a lot of loose ends cjp.
