Laurie Fisher’s future as head coach at Gloucester is in doubt, after he referred to making “room for someone else” in the role on social media.
The Australian cast doubt on his future when he said it is “time to make room for someone else” on Twitter following the defeat to Harlequins yesterday and it is understood that the club were planning to hold talks with Fisher today to clarify his comments.

“Winning the European Challenge Cup in 2015 provided reason for optimism, but crucially did not earn a place at Europe’s top table.
“And now, after losing at home to Harlequins the Cherry and Whites look highly likely to miss out on Europe’s top club competition again.”
