That must be why you sacked him then.



The truth is I thought he was hard done by but he's not done much since 2016 other than run an Academy team at Warrington?

What we have to consider is that when Wakefield appoint a new coach it is for life and not just until the performances deteriorate.



Sorry couldn’t resist.

I believe he is one of Wane's assistant coaches in the England setup, and the head coach of the England Knights.

As I said, not much. I'd have thought he'd have got another SL gig but 5 years is a long time. Maybe he's just not interested, I wouldn't blame him.

Was on Facebook yesterday cant remember exactkey who posted hence i said dont know how true

If it's not to be WP, I'd take Anderson, if it is WP, have Anderson as assistant.

People keep chucking names like Anderson around but surely it’s WPs choice should he get the job permanently. In which case why would he want Anderson? What connection do they have? I’m not saying there isn’t one or that he may be quite happy with that scenario but we can’t just limp two people together because we like the sound of it.



I’d go for Ward but that may be the last person Poching wants. Frankly I would expect he will go for someone with far less experience than either of those, I would. There can only be one boss.

Do they have to have a connection?

Weren't you one of the ones that was saying we need someone with no connection or sentimental ties to the club?

For the time being, I'm looking to see what the response from the players on Friday will be after last Sunday.

Yet again vasty so wrong, wouldnt mind it wasnt even a negative post or somthing bad and i never claimed it to be true just thatvi had read it, but as per the norm you just cant help yourself.

If willie gets the job and last does go to cas he will need an assistant i like the idea of Applegarth but would that mean we lose him from youth set up so maybethe club would benifit him staying as is so another candidate is maybe finn.of course its all if and buts and the choice of the coach.just hope things are decided sooner rather than later

I don't think any announcement will be made prior to the last game



However, I do think an announcement should be made prior to 2022 season tickets going on sale. Also, could help on sales depending upon who is announced

The new coach should be appointed directly after the Hull game allowing time to settle in and get down to business.

I tend to think that WP s got the job and I think that would be acceptable to most supporters, personally I would prefer an outsider.

I say lots of things on here but they are mostly just musings, I don’t expect them to be taken seriously.



The point I was making was at the end of the day it has to be Pochings choice should he get the job. From what I’ve seen of MC he will appoint the Coach and then leave it to him to appoint his staff. Unlike most of us he has the common sense to leave it to the professionals.



In which case I can’t imagine Poching taking on someone as an asst with more experience than him, if you did so you may as well make him the coach.



People go on about JK being great for CC and he was but he was always itching to be back in charge and that’s why he stayed for one and a bit seasons. You can’t build on that.



True Anderson has been low profile so maybe but the rest, even Ward, are to close to being the top man and Poching is to wily for that imho.

and be involved with England, and coached England Knights. and spend time travelling and learning from the best.



"we" didn't sack him. The board did that. and replaced him with the useless Stone - who had no clue what he was actually getting when he signed which is why he was so poor.

and honestly aren't most coaches sacked - its mostly how it works isn't it? by the same token if Chester was so crap why wasn't he sacked years ago instead of being one of the longest running coaches in SL??
