Can anyone explain why Mark Aston is never a blatant contender?

I'm assuming he is strongly committed to the Eagles but surely a Super League opportunity with his home-town club must be enticing.

His achievements with limited resources have been nothing short of staggering.

My first choice by a mile.

I've always been a big admirer of what Aston has done at Sheffield given the constraints. He would be a good choice for us and would have been before Millward came. Unfortunately I think it may be his lack of Super League experience that puts many clubs off, if in fact whether he applies for positions or not.

cant see Powell leaving Rovers for Cas at this point in time, Rovers just announced the building of a 300 square metre indoor building to house all gym, wrestle equipment plus a 60 x 40 3g indoor training pitch behind the railway end complete with showers etc, all done after consulting Powel, will give Rovers access to some of the best training facilities in the game, be very surprised if he left just yet

I hear a lot of people saying that Powell doesn't get on with Fev's new CEO, can't understand why.....

The new coach has to have Cas in his blood, to install back the pride of playing or coaching a home town club.
On that basis the candidates would be John Kear, Daryl Powell, Mark Aston and Andy hay.

All born in or around Cas, certainly John Kear and Andy hay would jump at the job, maybe Powell, not too sure about Aston, he seems to be Mr Sheffield and doing a good job.

On Saturday you will see a different Castleford side, whoever is in charge. It was undoubtably a players revolt against Millward, I heard rumours everyday of squabbling, and even fighting on the team bus.

Cas to beat Widnes

Sorry but that is utter nonsense and will take your club down.

John Kear is the best Coach we have had in the SL era and he didn't have Wakey in his blood did he.

Since Wakefield's glory days we have had a succession "Wakey in the blood" coaches and with the honourable exceptions of Toppo and Andy Kelly they were generally poor. Ken Trail who created the Trinity legend came from Bradford Northern!

In house is nearly always a disaster. If my memory serves me wasn't it under Steadman your decline began?

I'd go for Kear because he is good at sorting teams out not because he once lived in Cas. Go for the best you can get whoever they are.

Mate, it's not where they come from that matters, it's where they are going.

Yeah, he stop training facilities - righty oh then.

so you think training facilities are a non issue then idiot boy, don't you think a coach would take that into consideration when considering, especially when he has been at the forefront of designing the ones at Rovers. Wake up and smell the coffee the job at cas is a poisoned chalice at the moment

Re: New Coach has to have Cas in his blood : Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:49 pm  

I'd have one that has the best ability, that can coach youngsters and can teach us how to defend and attack.

Oh and do a job on limited resources.

Kear is good at defence but not attack and can do a job on limited ability. Ticks two out of 3.

Powell can do well with a big team in a small pond but what about a smaller team in a big pond?

Morgan: Didn't have the youth structures at HKA and had to rely on overseas players. Still did well with the squad he had and was respected.

If I'm honest, Justin Morgan is my first choice.

Justin Morgan it is then!

Training facilities are not that high up on the agenda that a coach will say "I'm not going to apply for a SL coaching job because I would rather stay in NL1 because the training facilites are better".

You do know that Cas Tigers often use Fev's facilites already don't you ?

Yep, ditto John Joyner...although he won the Regal it was with Van der Velde's team.

Strange as it sounds sometimes a home town coach can have too much passion to be effective.

Re: New Coach has to have Cas in his blood : Sat Apr 13, 2013 2:13 pm  

I would like the new coach to be an outsider, some one who doesn't have the Cas attitude, we have all these home grown players who should be busting a gut for the club no matter who he is, we have some problems off the field what we know aren't good but we don't know how bad they are because we don't get told nowt.

If we get a Coach from with in the club & he fails it's another players name tarnished in there eyes of the fans, Mr Kear would do a job in the short term, but he is another with Cas in his blood, & we have found that does not mean a lot with the departure of Mr Ferris who had Cas in his blood.

There has been rumor's that we want Mr Powell, a Cas lad, who has had nothing to do with the club, but he is a good up & coming coach & i would love him to take the club forward, as for Mr Aston another Cas lad, but he has got a big stake in Sheffield, when the debacle with Huddersfield went west he was the fella to start them back up.

It's been rumored that Mr Reilly will be taking a post, but i hope it's not the coaching post, he has the passion but his skills would be better used upstairs.

Stuart Raper has tweeted he would love the job, if thats the case he should send is application if not it's a none starter.

Justin Morgan has been linked, but i don't think we could afford him as he was said to want £200 grand a year.

I think we will end up with Danny Orr for the rest of the season & asses, how we go, but if we don't get the coaching situation right this time we will continue to be a basement team, Tonight will tell us if it was just the players not getting on with the coach, & if thats the case the new man will have to weed out the s&&t stirrers
