McLaughlin set to be shown door at Ulster

Ulster’s head coach Brian McLaughlin looks set to lose his job at the end of the season, despite pulling the side out from the depths of despair.

Informed sources say he will be left go when his contract runs out at the end of May.

It is believed that Director of Rugby David Humphreys and Chief Executive Shane Logan have already earmarked a New Zealand supremo with John Kirwan and Matt Sexton being touted as his possible replacement.
