if we were playing anyone else it would either be a fine or no case to answer.

No way the RFL are banning Saints' best player before a nationally televised match.

I'm not going to get an answer off you on this, am I? I'm not interesting in petty bickering with you about the game, I'm sure you can find someone else to do that.

Thanks very much for at least attempting to answer a genuine question about a game between our clubs - clearly not what these forums are for.

Careful, you show Don Brennan up as much as I have over time and you might get a mention in his signature too!

I love the way he hasn't grasped the quote feature yet. Which is ironic since most of his posts consist of ">quote< - INSULT".

He looks a motivator to me rather than a tactical wizard. I'd be surprised if he could spell his own name, never mind use a pencil.

If lenaghan was convinced about him, he would have announced him as head coach long ago. Now if he does it will appear as though he has got the job because no one else was available, hardly a massive vote of confidence. Not great management by lenaghan

They've been waiting for John Kear to become available

Did he give you a good hiding years ago?

Anyone who has been coached by him has his respect, particularly the lads he coaches at U18 and U20/21.

"Straight as an arrow" "honest with all his players" ids how I have personally heard him described.

And I'm sure you wouldn't call him that to his face, grow up.

He's much older than me so no he's never given me a 'good hiding' and if you knew me at all you'd realise I wouldn't have a problem calling him an ape to his face.

As for my comment I really really do hope he gets the job because Wigan will go backwards. Having respect is one thing, and is probably fine for an assistant but being the top man is a totally different deal.

Oh and on your advise I read John Monie's book and his comments on Wane were interesting.

From the look of his face, he's already fell flat on it.
