Wirewire Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Certainly the best coach we've had for a very long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teessidewire Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Probably the best since Murphy first time round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PADDERS Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Probably the best since Murphy first time round.Brian Johnson was one of the best we have ever had and he had NO resources and was made to sell all his best players I would love to see him now with all the backing that Smith has !But in Smith we trust !

Sorry Padders but Brian Johnson was in charge the night Saints put 80 past us on one of the most embarrassing days in the history of Warrington Rugby league Club. We had a strong team under Johnson for many years and if it hadn't been for the all conquering Wigan we would have won more silverware. Brian was a jolly nice chap, a little quiet for the media, but I wouldn't rate him as one of the best. Now as a full-back - he was simply the best!

Latchford Wolvesfan Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Johnson wasn't one of the best but to be fair Warrington threw that game in order to get Johnson the sack.... he gave in his notice shortly after so it worked a treat.

Johnson was sold down the river by the club who sold all of the best players and gave him no support ! Yes he was the manager for the thrashing but when you look at all the interference the club put on him at the time like not paying the players it was understandable why none of the team wanted to play . Higham was the tosser incharge then he was at fault IMO his poor business sense drove our club into the ground ! If Johnson had the same resources as Smith has, he would have been his equal IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy51 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I seem to remember we had 3 progressively good coaches in the 70's (Ken Kelly, Billy Benyon & Tony Barrow) who produced the the great side of the early/mid 80's & laid the foundation for Brian Johnson's stint as manager. I thought Barrow was a great manager but for some reason he left the club abruptly when the team was at its peak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got to know Tony Barrow very well during his time as coach and used to interview him every week - minus the video camera. He left because he did not get the full backing of the board.
