I stick to my previous opinion on head coaches/managers.  Who they are
and what they do or say is of no importance whatsoever.  They don't
make tackles; they don't score goals; they don't make saves.  It's the
PLAYERS that are the team.  The owners; trainers; physios; coaches
boot boys; tea ladies,etc,etc do not play football they just make the
whole deal more complicated.  I just hope the team can deal with all
this peripheral mumbo-jumbo.

RUGBY UNION:
England under Stuart Lancaster - absolute shambles, total under achievers
England under Eddie Jones - 100% different; (is it) 22 wins from 23 games (so change is almost immediate) ....starts with same players available.
