Quote ="DaveO"So what if it is fan-chatter? I am sure there are plenty of opinions already offered on this board and others about plenty of other "candidates" who have also not as yet had some press hack put their name forward. Have you been picking up anyone who may have suggested an appointment of say Betts or Chester would not go down well? As soon as McDermott's sacking was known both Wigan Facebook groups, Mikes board and Total RL had posters saying they did not want McDermott at Wigan. Go and chase them down if you are so bothered they voiced such an opinion off their own bat.
And by the way I never used the phrase "lazy option" so they are not my words but yours, thanks. What I said was: "Now Wigan have to compete with Leeds to sign a top coach. If they end up with Furner and we end up with McDermott I think various forums and facebook groups would explode. Not because Furner is viewed as a top coach in particular but what it would say about Wigan's inability and lack of ambition to attract anyone but the unemployed!"
There is no hard evidence for any of the numerous names mentioned by fans or press getting the Wigan job, so do you not realise just how daft that sentence is? It means because "there is no hard evidence" who our next coach is no one, including you, is seemingly allowed to discuss the matter.'"
Give it up Dave, it's getting beyond ridiculous now.
There is no chance McDermott will be Wigans, next coach.
IL will get the right man.
