Seems to taking a bit of a break post-Bristol
Might be worth someone having a chat with him.

haven't posted on here for years but had to awaken from my slumbers to respond to this. Sean Holley is Scott Johnson's buddy, and probably worse as a coach - and another who was chased out of Wales. Edinburgh Rugby may be a bit of a joke at present but Holley would make them a complete laughing stock.
We would be begging Solomon's to come back, or Bradley within weeks

So we can expect to see him pitch up soon then?

As someone who has lived in the south west for almost 30 years and watched Bristol for almost as long - the last person Edinburgh needs is Holley.

In his entire time at Bristol there was no obvious sign of any improvement in the team. In fact the only thing he really did, and did well, was bring older welsh players towards the end of their career over the bridge to sign up on decent contracts, play a couple of games, get injured and spend the rest of said contracts sitting in the stands on match days.

Also, working in Edinburgh would play havoc with his media career. As a Bristol coach, he spent virtually every Friday night as an analyst with either S4C or BBC Wales. It was a running joke amongst supporters that Bristol came second to the TV.
