I though he was pretty good for London last year, he played at 6 against us and was by far their best player that day. I would have though he was a good option for your bench as he can cover 6,7 & 9. You must be looking at bringing another Hooker in as playing 80 severely diminishes any hookers impact later in games. Houghton's scoot would be a great weapon if he came on fresh with 20 to go.
Says in the mail that he's left with immediate effect, which to me hints at a fall out with Radford, as surely we'd have kept him on for the rest of the year as squad cover.

For a coach to moan about short turnaround and 3 games in 10 days etc, to get rid of your 2nd hooker and play Houghton for 80 minutes in all these 3 games is comical, but not a surprise with the coach we have in charge.

Suspect this might be something to do with his private life rather than any falling out with the club/coach. He's said he'll Tweet more details later which doesn't sound like there's anything sinister going on.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One
