I agree, but you miss my point. Yes Ward needs to go. We replace him with Gallant and we might see a small uptick in results. We might even go on a bit of a run like we saw with Hartley and Peters. Then we will cool off and fall back down to Earth and resume being mediocre. And all the while Johnny and Mony and Chucky get older and eventually less effective, and we start the cycle again, except this time we have good coach and no players.
I know you want Ward gone asap. I agree. Getting a real coach is a start. What I don't agree with is whether that will make any difference in the grand scheme of things. We have too many pieces missing.
