| My dad was at school with Tasker albeit a few years younger. From his accounts Tasker was a massive bully and a complete k***head. (Exact Words). So he may not have have changed his personality, maybe that's why we are better off without him? Although I personally think he done an outstanding job for the Bulls in both of his stints.

| Quote staffbull1973="staffbull1973"Genuine question, what does Duffy actually do?'"
Well I spent six weeks on Work Placement with him and he never stops.
He looks after the Media on a daily basis - that's sky, BBC, radio etc. Hosts the weekly Press conference at Tong. Writes and distributes Bulls Eye. Organises the Press on matchday at Odsal. Looks after the Press lounge and the aftermatch press con. Sorts out the Facilities in the press box, Updates the stats to give out to the media and deals with the photographers. While i was there a leading rl journalist told me he was the best in the game and in all his years at the club had never failed to return a call or failed to get the interview he needed. He also sorts out the Pre season media day, which is a nightmare! He updates and writes most of the stuff on the website and facebook and he edits the matchday programme a well as writing a large part of it.
He also does the Football managers role. He deals with the UK Border Agency - he is the only person at the club licenced to so that. That is a most important role because of you mess up the club can lose its licecene to employ overseas labour. he arranges all the fixtures and the changes, sorts out the clubs relationship with the drug agency - clubs have to let them know where the team is everyday. deals with the RFL on Salary cap, discipline- he goes with the players when they are called up - sorts out all the player's contracts, registrations. He also send in the squad every week. He arranges travel to away games, both here and to France and he attends all the clubs home games at all levels. On First Team days as well as the media he is the direct liaison with the match commissioner and stands by the dug out. he is in charge of that are and calls ambulances etc. He writes out the official teamsheet to hand in prior to the game and looks after the two way radios. He sorts out all the Player appearances throughout the year
He now has another job as well. He is Player Welfare Officer. He told me that involves sorting our education for the players as well as liaising with something called Sporting Chance. He was very active in that role when he was volunteering.
He is also a Trustee of the Bulls Foundation.
I am sure if you asked him to outline those things further he would be happy to invite you up to Odsal. He is there most days and during the season that can be seven days aweek as well as late evenings. He also handles all the Emails that come to the club.

Assistant coach, I'd guess.

| Quote Bullnorthern="Bullnorthern"I'm not sure why you think Tasker should go. I think he has done an excellent job.
What intrigues me is your comment "Some other things he told us were quite frankly astounding (which i can't repeat on here)" . Understand your reluctance to divulge the contents of a private conversation but would be interested to know if the astounding things refer to the past or to his future plans.'"
Prior to chatting to OK i would have said exactly the same as you have regarding GT,but not something i want to reveal on here.
The things that were astounding were prior to OK taking over and relate to a previous director, and if it comes out and it is true as i've been told, the fans will be baying for blood.

Thanks for that Red I said a similar thing on the T & A comments in answer to some thinking the same!
Although mine was recalling what Mick had said, you being more involved would have learnt that in the course of events!

| Quote Cibaman="Cibaman"Might not necessarily be a good idea to re-appoint all of the old staff. Could do with at least one person from elsewhere, not part of the old regime.
It did seem from the outside that Hood, and Caisley before him, were fairly hands on when it came to rugby decisions such as player recruitment. I would be surprised if OK will want to get too involved in that side of things.'"
I agree. I also think it's a good thing that Tasker isn't staying and for the same reasons feel that new faces would be a refreshing change from those closely aligned with the issues of the past.

| I get the feeling Tasker ended staying on in sufferance due his close connection with he who will not be named.
As far as saying some of the old Staff shouldn't be re-employed well those that came back as volunteers certainly should be allowed to have a job back. We were grateful for their loyalty during administration, so I think it’s curmudgeonly to think otherwise!

It's not curmudgeonly to hope the club move forward unencumbered by the events and personalities of the past. You're right to mention Tasker's connection to CC, the same probably goes for Noble who I personally think has done nothing wrong. I also think that whether people worked for nothing during administration should have no bearing.

| So you’re blaming virtually all the Staff as well as the Old BoD’s and Main Shareholders. So who don’t you want back at Odsal then??

| No, I'd like to think we're past blaming but I would like to see change/renewal. I don't have a problem with LSH but don't think him and FC look strong enough. Medley has the strongest claims to be re-employed and am pleased for him. Duffy has many supporters but was a significant figure in an administration that was, as Tasker states, 'out of its depth' and engaged in a years long internecine feud.
I can understand why all three have been re-employed and in due course other new faces may well be brought on board. I hope so.
