That's funny because Grainge would have my number and would no doubt contact me himself if he had a problem.

Post the text message then

His letter to the players and members stated that increasing commitments to work and family meant he had less time to coach at a Division 1 level. We obviously had alot of success over the 4 years with Nath winning a Div 2 and Div 3 flag so i would imagine its mixed emotions in relation to his departure. Should know who our new coach is within a week or 2 im hearing.



I think this post from a modbury player probably confirmed his resignation but thanks to Growler we can rest easy knowing its true now

Why on earth would I post private correspondence between two parties on a public forum. That's insane. Not to mention I don't have their permission.

I also think you are in the wrong thread

Urge to poke the bear is now off the Richter :lol:

Good luck on the abstinence. One of the hardest things to do and one of the most rewarding if you succeed.
The extra 8K a year and the opportunity to live longer should be good motivators.
The only way I did it was to take two weeks holidays for the first two weeks when I quit otherwise you will box someone in their head.

I didn't hear that. What i did hear was something along the lines of the playing group not wanting him there anymore. One guy especially made his feelings known at the end of the season. Writing was on the wall from there.

C'mon mate. You seem to have an axe to grind with your old Premiership coach.

Every single club has a player or two that doesn't like the coach or want him there. I'm sure you have been at a club where you didn't like a coach but it doesn't amount to much.

He took the club to div 1 and won a little silverware along the journey just like he did at Gaza. Has every entitlement to move onto a new challenge or take some time off if he chooses. Whether he ends up at Pembroke, Blacks, back at Westies or has time off he has and will give honest service. He is not a coach that feels the need to piss in players pockets and try and be everyone's best buddy. He is however a coach who gets results.

Lol. The point I was making was that it wasn't much of a choice for him to hand in his resignation. Not doubting his resume.
