Yep. Wouldn't mind to be proven wrong but in the long term I'd doubt it.

Considering he got a 3 year extension whilst suspended last season we could lose every game this season and it wouldn't surprise me if he kept his job.

I just think some serious pressure needs to be put on him. The media had toovey facing the chopping block after rd 1!

They guy I would like to see us coach if FLanno goes is Sheppard. he did well at the end of last year with almost no players.

get rid of flanno and everyone he has brought to the club, especially the board. Bring back Irvine, Douglas and then get someone like Brownie or anyone that isn't Flanno

I'd prefer an outsider to come in as coach, someone with some ideas of what's needed in the modern game and won't be overruled by the senior players.
That's not having a shot at shep either by the way.

The pressure won't help, Flanno is already under pressure and he knows it. Stressing Flanno even more won't bring him the coaching ability and positive mindset we need in a coach.
Having said that I would have no problem if he came under scrutiny and it forced him to really try something new or even pushed him out to make way for someone else
That's a good point

You don't know that, how much does Gorman really know about Rugby league, it's coaching and performance? He would have looked back and seen Flanno made the finals 2 years in a row before he was suspended and he would have had advisers strongly advocating Flanno's contract.

imo add a half back to our team and a decent coach like brown and we are a top 8 team, not sure shep could get us there
I want brown, been saying it for a year

He's a professional. And he'd have covered his backside. There'd be performance clauses and other legitimate triggers for early termination.
Noyce and company would have just written the deal on the back of a drink coaster. It'd have been even worse than a Fisk contract.

No. But he didn't have the balls to sack him, which would have been the first move of any million dollar a year CEO. And not sacked on his coaching ability either which is altogether an entirely different matter.
The sooner Gorman moves the better.

I didn't say Gorman would 100% approve keeping Flanno on board and extending his contract just that it wouldn't have been as clear cut as the post I quoted made out.
'well I'm the new CEO here, who's this Flanno guy that got suspended, yea hes done, not even going to discuss contracts or some middle ground, **** him off' wouldn't have gone down like that. There would be a process of consideration and discussion on the matter and Gormo may have been swayed either way

He did a great job with a rag tag team from last year. Maybe he should take over again at least till the end of the year, more often than not he gave us exciting entertaining football to watch with a team that on paper had no right to beat anyone.......... But they did.
Flanno has to goooooo there is to much at stake, he is killing the club.
