Fair points. The one that springs to mind is Brian Smith at Bradford but it's a rarity - also Bradford had a new Chairman who love or loath him was a cut above. I've seen nothing yet to suggest AG is another Caisley - but - nothing to suggest he isn't. I think we should write this season off for all of us, fans, players, coaches and directors - the road to success starts when the hooter blows at the end of the Bradford game.

TBH I'd prefer Gentle or an Aussie of similar quality as I believe they are better in every respect. I wish it were not so but after 25 years I'm yet to see a British Coach match them. Wishing or wanting it to be so doesn't make it so sadly.

That said I do feel all the names mentioned with the exception of Agar and to a lesser degree Powell who IMO have had their chance could do a job. Obviously I'm ignoring the comedy suggestions of Goulding and Schofield.

Harris, Milward, Morgan, Cummins and Harrison could all do well enough - that's in no particular order.

A lot of posters such as fat face have dismissed many of these which is fair enough - however what they have failed to do is suggest an alternative. Considering we have to have a coach then we will have to take one of these if Gentle is not available. That is unless we have a real off the radar one lined up which I must admit would be nice.

The name i have heard has not been mentioned on here but would presumably get the from most on here.

Cas are now wanting the same coach as us after there recent knockbacks. Hopefully he will choose us though!!! If not there's always our second choice 

Are you suggesting someone has applied to be Coach at wakefield and now Cas are after the same person ?
If so I read the situation like this, Cas are either head hunting a guy who has not applied to be their coach or he did apply to join both clubs but wasn't initially the front runner at Cas but someone they considered better than him has turned them down and suddenly he's their wanted man.

If any of these scenarios are correct, then if that person is now considereing going to Cas instaed of us I would be telling him to foxtrot oscar.

What we should do is put it about that we have set our hearts on Schofield as head Coach and Goulding as his number two (yes I meant that).

Cas being Cas will not be able to resist no matter the obvious issue, they just have to have what we have - job done.

Hope his name isn't Brian, although his name has been mentioned on here so wouldn't fit what ry21 said.
