he said it was the travelling simple as that, nothing else to it, we move on, see who we get as a replacement, and see who we get as the new coach, exciting times still ahead for sure.

Danny Richardson is out of favour at saints maybe a season long loan?

Who are your other options?

a quote from the chairman mick hogan, he says:  "We will now move quickly to replace Liam for what is a key position within the team”

Why didn't they wait till they had a replacement in place before letting him go?

Should the union club Newcastle Falcons be relegated - they are bottom of the league but the RFU have a meeting scheduled for 

9th April to decide of relegation is to be scrapped - and with the losses announced last year - https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/business/business-news/newcastle-falcons-optimistic-future-despite-14803042

there may be the possibility of the Newcastle owner opting out.( It does happen in our sport! )

** I do seem to have read about the other code,recently,with the potential of the Scarlets club merging with Ospreys in south/west Wales**

 There  seems a lack of certainty about Newcastle Thunder going forward.

 Their plans for this campaign have certainly taken an unexpected turn.

     No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.

The report actually says the exact opposite 

Quote

Mr Kurdi also uses the accounts to affirm his commitment to the club, adding a note that he has “confirmed his willingness to meet the day to day requirements of the group and to also continue to invest in the long term future of the rugby clubs.”

Unless by 'possibility of walking away' you actually mean 'affirm his commitment to the club'

There is no lack of certainty about us

   Lots of investors seem to have a change of mind.

    The unexpected does happen - despite the words spoken.

  This wasn't too long ago - https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/news/12196/9234440/hunter-paul-marc-green-at-bradford-bulls-for-long-haul

   There may not be a relegation for the Falcons.

   It was only a few weeks ago and an opening double-header at Kingston Park and everything appeared good for Thunder.

   The departure of a head coach,and a big-name signing with Super League and international experience,doesn't seem so good when neither have been replaced. 

    They do have a chequered history.

     No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.

Shaun Wane to Thunder according to League Weekly, interesting appointment if true. This is in addition to his part time role at Scottish RU. Newcastle not that far from Edinburgh.

It's about a 2 hour drive each way, that shouldn't be a problem .... just ask Liam Finn ?
