Harlequins legend Danny Care has said his old club needs “looking at from top to bottom” and they must get their next coaching appointment right.
The Twickenham-based club have won just two Prem games this season since a pre-season coaching shake-up as director of rugby Billy Millard and head coach Danny Wilson left and were replaced by senior coach Jason Gilmore.
Wilson departed to join the coaching set-up for the Wales national team with just two weeks to go until the start of the Prem campaign.
Since Conor O’Shea’s exit in 2016, John Kingston, Paul Gustard, Tabai Matson, Millard, Wilson and Gilmore have all led the team.
Former scrum-half Care, who spent his entire club career at Harlequins and retired last year, has said there is no quick fix for the club after years of coaching changes.
“There’s been so many changes at the top of the coaching seats that then everything changes from that, and there hasn’t been a clear alignment all the way through, which I think the club are very aware of,” Care told BBC Radio 5 Live’s Rugby Union Weekly podcast.
“What they have to do [with] this next appointment, which we’ve kind of said for a long time as players there who care about the club, they have to get this next one right.”
