Just been sacked by Glasgow, pretty brutal comment from Al Kellock.

Well, when you reach for the stars, it is only the great fall afterwards that makes you realise that all that glitters and sparkles is not gold.

I can't say I feel at all sorry for him. I made a similar mistake in my twenties and it remains one of my greatest regrets.

He really let Dai down, and for that he will be remembered, not just by Wasps, but by other teams.

After matches he has rarely been a positive voice. Strangely he was employed by the SRU and put into Glasgow so it will be them that disposed of him.
Let me tell you something cucumber

Judging solely on outputs I think he was one we got lucky on.

Whether he would have been any good, the fact is he left us in the lurch. Not shedding tears in Hastings.

Yep, hard to not see this through the lens of the situation he left Wasps and Dai in. Coincidence or not, it was the beginning of the end for Dai at Wasps. Dai said the timing couldn't have been worse.

Not sure what Al Kellock has said but prior to Danny Wilson pulling out of his contract with Wasps he had steered Cardiff (?) to victory in the European Shield with a brand of attacking & exciting rugby.

Not sure what has happened at Glasgow but I suspect he will not be out of the game long.
