The Penrith board has guaranteed that Matt Elliott will continue as coach for the 2009 season.   The club's chairman, Barry Walsh, emerged from a board meeting today to say that after a performance review covering the 2008 season, there would be no changes to the coaching structure.   "Matt Elliott attended the meeting and it was very productive,'' Walsh said.   "Whilst we acknowledge that there was disappointing aspects of the season we see a positive future. The board unanimously reaffirmed Matt Elliott will be remain as coach for 2009.''   Elliott had earlier emerged from a meeting with the club's board to say that he has been told it is business as usual for him. There has been speculation for several days that Elliott would be sacked after Penrith missed the finals again.   "It was a performance review, that raised some areas that they (board) would like addressed," said Elliott.   "The fact is that at the moment, I've got a contract and the instructions coming out of the meeting are to continue."   Elliott said that the discussion with board had been "frank, open and honest" and that he went in there to give his straight forward view of what had gone wrong with the team's season.   "I'm not scared of my own opinion," Elliott said.   "My intention is to be here for next year and to help this club be successful over a sustained period."   Asked if he expected to see out 2009, "Yeah, and more," Elliott said.
