Sadly it appears that both of these great servants to the club have decided to move on. I have been privelidged to work with both of these guys and can confirm what many know that they are great people as well as players and coaches.

I wish you all the best and hope to see you again soon at Headingley

Any word on where they are going?

I blame the Tories.

End of meassage.

Absolute tragic news to see these great servants of our club go. However we must send them off well or at least do something that will leave a lasting legacy of these player/coaches other than just on paper, in our hearts and minds. From next season I’d like to see customers at the Carnegie Cafe drinking their coffee out of Willie Poaching and Francis Cummings mugs. I mean genuine coffee mugs and not saying that these two are mugs as in the insult.

Whose up for the campaign as it’s the least we can do

Probably advisable to get Cummins name right first on those mugs Damo.

Fanny and Willie mugs may not get by the PC police.

Need to look up the definition of tragedy too Damo. Cummins and Poching moving is certainly a change but I struggle to see any aspect that could even loosely be descibed as 'tragic'

If this is correct, perhaps it supports some posters' views on the poor performance of the Academy in recent times?

Sounds like Willie got stiffed

Ah, we're going to miss gags like this.

bring powell back in as number 2 in there place

Wheels, Wheels, where are you when you're needed?
