| I would. The wheels came off a bit at Warrington towards the end, but other than that he could get a team playing to their strengths, including changing the ‘nearly man’ culture at Leeds. His rugby with us wasn’t Champagne style but it got us more points than we should’ve had on paper. He probably wouldn’t touch us with a barge-pole, but would you have him back?

| I wish everyone would stop focusing on this coach or that player.
We could swap Wayne Bennett for Stone and Shaun Johnson for Brough and it would make no difference .
With the shambles and mis management off the pitch nothing s going to change soon.
Sadly it is likely to have to be Ken leaving the club and a fresh new start before anything is likely to happen. But without Ken’s money that may Not be the answer either.

I agree totally. The club is being run into the ground.
Sad when you think of what could have been achieved, but I now see a future as a return to the mid-nineties.
Unless there is a major change of direction, we need to get comfortable with the idea of playing big games against Dewsbury and Keighley.
I do wonder why Ken Davy tolerates it. The millions he must have spent, and to let it all slide away? It’s incredible.

I'm not trolling here, but didn't his wife die a bit back or have I got that wrong? Maybe it's knocked him for six and his hearts not in it? I've seen it happen and people take advantage sadly.

| one of the things ken davy wanted was an average 10k fans every week.... no chance!!! not many sl teams can improve their attendances by that much even with success.
76yr old now is ken, not getting any younger! dread to think what happens if he pulled the plug but i dont think he will, had many more chances and worrying times than where we are now in the past

She did, but the problems long predate that

He might be in his seventies, but he’s still got something. He’s grown SimplyBiz from nothing into a £100million company since he founded it fifteen years back - it floats on the stock exchange next month and Davy will pocket tens of millions of pounds.
What I struggle to understand is why he hasn’t brought that energy and drive to the Giants. He wouldn’t tolerate the lack of growth in any of his other businesses.
