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.

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.

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.

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?

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??

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

so you would have an unproven coach as head coach over an assistant coach who has worked with some of the best in the business, has coached at this level and coached a side to silverware. hmmmmmm.
then From a personal POV I hope you give it WP.

Just my opinion, you lads stick with 'flattering to deceive' Watson!

You tell us missus your the one with all the answers apparently, and being involved with England and coaching the England knights, not to mention travelling round Huddersfield and learning from the best doesn't seem to have done him a lot of good as he still got the sack and still can't get a job, imagine that eh.

I'd be ok with Anderson.
I thought he did well when he got his chance as head coach and has obviously worked with the International setup.

He clearly isn't coming as an assistant. Willie if he gets the job will probably have a trusted person in mind.

Have you seen the coverage on YT for the England Knights trip over to AUS and PNG? Completely changed my opinion on the guy, results didn’t go his way in those few weeks but thought he composed himself very well in the clips we saw and really guided the younger lads.
