    A manager used to a small budget, small ground, had success with a club, now unemployed.

    That man Rob Edwards, who took small club Luton Town into the premiership on a shoe-string,
    a man who knows the ins & outs of football.
    Rob Edwards left Luton Town by mutual consent, he knew that the club could not hold onto a
    premiership place, with relegation to the championship, he knew he had taken Luton Town as
    far as he could.
    Could he be looking for a new challenge.

    There are many managers that are looking for a new challenge but it doesn't mean they would relish the one they would face at RUFC.

    In just over 18 months we've gone from a car crash (MT) to a train crash (LR) to a plane crash (SE). Boothy would have been in his element with all this wreckage to melt down

    Good luck to Matt and Andy. I sincerely hope they do well and get the job on a permanent basis. However, I think everyone who has been saying the players don?t want to play for Evans will soon realise that the players are sh1t.

    Can?t pass, can?t control the ball, weak as children on the ball, don?t move off the ball, no footballing instinct.

    Like I say, good luck Matt and Andy. If they can change this group of frauds then they deserve the job.

    Shark27, or.........they used player power to oust someone out they simply couldn't PLAY for? Have you forgotten the Charlton, Huddersfield, Wrexham at home games so quickly? These players can play they don't just go bad overnight or in this case in half a season.

    Let's hope the first meeting with Hamshaw/Warrington is a constructive one and the players open up to them both expressing their true feelings on how/why their season has gone so badly wrong.

    Exactly. For this reason I expect we'll see an immediate improvement.

    Well they've got precisely one full day's training to "change this group of frauds" before we find out if they really can 🫣.

    If the team improves dramatically, I for one, will be furious. If they've been holding back to get rid of the manager, then they've taken the p*** out of us all.
    Best all round if they stay mediocre, then we can have a clean start next season.
