Yeah I hadn't heard that but wouldn't be surprised. I think he did a good job with Glasgow but as with all these things a lot of people will be split between did he do well or was it the foundations laid prior to his appointment thst was key as you said.
Will be the same if England win the WC. You'll have people hailing Borthwick as the greatest coach ever and others who'll say if was all down to Eddies work in the buildup.
I think he's a good coach, but not sure what top jobs are available other than Scotland and I'm only saying that because it appears Townsend is making people aware he's going to be available. To be honest it's about time Townsend moved on, if I was Scottish I would've wanted him out a couple of years ago.
