Speaking to Lewis Stuart in the Sunday Times, Searancke insisted: "The key at the end of the day, is that I'm not bitter about it. Frustration is more the right word. I'm not sure what happened to be honest."
Glasgow have just appointed their fourth coaching team in five years. "It seems to me that a lot of coaches have gone through there but the players stay," said Searancke.
Searancke felt that many Glasgow players simply gave up during the opening Heineken Cup match at Llanelli. After taking the lead Glasgow conceded two quick tries eventually going down 45-15. In the after-match press conference Searancke questioned the attitude of the Glasgow players. Searancke also believes players in Scotland are unwilling to do anything extra to cure their shortcomings and don't face any penalty for substandard performances.
He had expected that a player, whose fundamental blunder had cost his side a match, would have worried about it all night afterwards and then been up at the crack of dawn to cure it. He saw no sign of that in Scotland. Interestingly, when announcing Hugh Campbell would be Glasgow's replacement head coach, Telfer made it clear that he agreed with a lot of Searancke's comments, but not necessarily the way he said them.
"There are a lot of good things happening in Scotland, there are some issues I need to address in myself," Searancke said. "Where I come from as a person, however, I found that there were too many people who did not act professionally. That is not just within the SRU.
"There are so many things that need to be asked questions about," he says.
"To me there is a positiveness about asking questions but part of the problem in Scotland is that any questions are immediately put in the negative."
