Six places better than we went in '95 without them. Those four also played less than 60 games between them that year.
How did we go in 1996 compared to 1997?

I'm glad you asked. ;-)
Smith as a coaching director will only work if it us done a certain way:
* The coach had to know Brian and know what he is getting himself in for (eg Jason Taylor)
* The club has to be very clear what the responsibilities of each party are before the appointments. Crystal, crystal clear.
* The CEO needs to be personable, but also strong enough to pull Brian into line in a diplomatic way if he crosses the boundaries of his role.
In other words, it COULD work, but Smith's character would need to be managed well.
And I wouldn't give him a contract of more than two years.
no w, he certainly aren't.I don't think smith will have any issues with overpowering the head coach. He aren't stupid and has had a few assistant coaches over the years that have gone onto better things. I don't reckon he will have any issues with leaving the head coach along.
His problem has normally been with players.
