Without the senior guys performing we would have hit rock bottom long before.

The Anil Kumble style coaching works with a young group but now we have a senior group of players who played and put their bodies on the line for this team for a decade. These guys deserve respect and would demand it whether some fans like it or not. BCB needs to understand this and find a coach who will work with them instead using the threat of thappor. I hope we find somebody like Langer
Simmons or Marsh would be perfect in that sense.

Langer leans more towards technical coach. Which might be good in a way. Getting him would be a heck of a coup for BCB, because this guy is being backed to take over from Lehmann.
