Gleeson

Fissler reckons he’s joining you next season:
--- Quote ---
> Martin Gleeson may be heading to Harlequins when his one-year
contract with Gallagher PREM Bath runs out at the end of the
season.
>
> The former Super League star was appointed backs and attack
coach at the Rec in October after Lee Blackett left to join
Steve Borthwick’s England coaching team ahead of the Autumn
Nations Series.
>
> Gleeson is close to Marcus Smith after working with him under
Eddie Jones with England, when he aimed to use league-style
guile to help the fly-half’s natural attacking flair improve a
struggling attack.
--- End Quote ---
Leaves Bath in the poop. Lose Blackett to England then lose his
replacement after a year

No thanks. Gleeson has got Bath attacking through the forwards.
Whereas Blackett focused on the backs.

How can we possibly make an appointment like this until there is
a permanent DOR or HC in place. Surely they need to build their
coaching team not fit in to someone else’s plan.

Is Smith in charge of recruiting the coaching team? Long is his
mate, he gets on with Gleeson. So what? Pick the best coach
and let him recruit who he thinks he needs.

It would be dull to recruit MS's mates then for MS to pick up a
long term injury.
