I just found out on Facebook that John Corbett had been sacked, I'm not completely suprised, there were a few gunning for his head a year ago, I think a GF spot and moving up a Div are the only things that saved his job then.
If it is true that John was not allowed to address the players then that is a low act, I hope that was his decision and not the committees.
Personally I think John is an exceptional coach and will be snapped up by someone next year, I would be suprised if either of his sons ever go back to Rutland Ave after this and I wonder if the committee thought about the possibility of losing Mark Naley as well.
There was a lot of hurt at LFC over some decisions made at junior level that have wounds that are still healing, in my opinion this will take far longer for the club to recover from. Unless a new coach can attract some quality players Div 6 might be a struggle in 2012 as well
