Smith: Akward times at Parramatta
New Newcastle Knights coach Brian Smith says he felt let down by certain members of his former club Parramatta last year.
Smith left the Eels mid-season in controversial circumstances, when he decided his presence was hindering the side's on-field performance.
He said he was still disappointed at the way he was treated at Parramatta during his last season.
"Personally I think it was more about some of the other people in the place who just didn't react the same way they had around me in the previous seasons," Smith said.
"It's always an awkward thing, I'm not pretending it's easy but it was dissapointing for me."
