Bad News It Seems on Malcolm Reilly

[Ben]

Former Newcastle coach Malcolm Reilly is unlikely to return to the club next year because there isn't a place for him, according to Knights chairman Mike Tyler. "No one here is closer to Malcolm than I am … we had a chat about 'wouldn't it be nice', but there has been nothing formal," Tyler said.

"We have a coach with a year left on his contract - I don't think there is really a role for Malcolm at the moment."

This news simply is appalling and i have no idea what Tyler is talking about. We get a guy that has a lot of experience to extend the clubs potential for success and we knock him back. This certainly can't be good for the club. And Tyler saying there isnt a spot for him, i wouldnt mind seeing him as football director seeing that we currently don't really have one at the moment. This news has simply left me bedazzled??

Maybe Mal's only interested in one job.

It would be good if it became available.

Hagan is in no hurry to resign (especially now that they've been winning a few games) and the Knights couldn't afford to stand him down anyway... half the reason for the club's woes can be put down to money. The club would still have to pay him out the rest of his contract so I suppose the attitude is that they'll get their full term from him.

Mal Reilly is a coach -- without a first grade coaching position open, he wouldn't be sufficiently paid.

That is true and he may struggle being a football director seeing that he is best as a coach. Thinking about it, it may not be too bad that he is not coming after all.
