Quote ="sally cinnamon"I would have Cullen any day ahead of Millward. It comes down to whether Cullen would be happy to come back in a role that wasn't head coach. It might be hard for him to serve under another coach now.
As Cat says though it's been 5 years, lots of water has gone under the bridge, and I am sure he respects Tony Smith and the trophies he has put in the Wire cabinet.
The danger with bringing Cullen back in a role like youth coach is that the media would naturally go to Cullen for interviews, and he might end up being quoted more than Tony Smith, so it could feel odd for TS.'"
Cull was on the top table at Bennie's Q&A night some months ago and he was asked a question about him taking a vacant head coaches job again. He said that he didn't think he would go for or want another SL job again and was happy with his Sky commitments. I'd love to see him back at the HJ and I wouldn't thought Cull taking over the academy post would be a problem for TS. It's possible that he has ruled himself out already.
