Strange your comments coincidence with when Wigan have been winning.

Hopefully, Wigan v Leh at the DW so we can do what we did to Whitehaven a couple of years back. Then let Basil come back and say that Super League's doomed.
Wait, I can hear a drinks order... Pint of bitter for Mr Millward.

Where? Bradford? Cas?
I can't see any of the other clubs having reason to change coach and IMO it would be a bit harsh if either of those two did anyway.
Either way I can't understand why any SL club would employ Milllward again. While he may have been stitched up getting the boot from Saints he gave them the ammunition and it must be common knowledge how he lost the dressing room here big time and seemed powerless to turn things around.

The club who are rumoured to be losing their coach will not be sacking him, he will move on to the vacant England seat. All I have heard is rumours but they do seem to be pretty solid ones.

You dont have to appoint for a job if there is no suitable candidates, and I dont think Kear is a suitable candidate for the post. Did a terrible job last time with better players IMO. It would only be beaten to worst decision of the season, by Wakefield appointing Millward.
Again all my opinion, but I never think you should move backwards in sports, and Kear would be exactly that.

I understand what you're saying but how do we play Internationals with no one in charge?

Dont know to be honest, but he cannot be the only person to apply, can he? I suppose they could give him a one "season" contract ie just the length of the four nations, and see how it goes from there. However i still dont think we need a full time coach. However he isnt going to give up a full time job at wakefield for that.
And im not convinced that coach should be english either. I think the best coach we have had was David Waite.
However an anyone will do attitude isnt right either, typical of the RFL to cock it up though!

I totally agree and I can't imagine it's as well paid as a club job. For that reason you're not going to get a top appointment so I'd make it a part time job and get the best man for the job.

Would quite like them to give a younger coach, perhaps 3 tournaments and let them build a system like they should have done 20 years ago, instead of just copying the ausies, but 3 years to late, if you get my drift.
However the flaw in my fiendish plan is i cant think of a young coach who is doing anything off the top of my head!

Some of the people on the Wakey forum are well-placed and have dismissed the rumours. Sounds like speculation about the defeat on Saturday quickly turned into hard fact.

Not too badly placed myself regards Trinity and it is something that has been doing the rounds for a couple of weeks, still not saying it is hard fact though and indeed could be a case of Chinese Whispers as is often the case in Rugby League.

I thought that when I read his tips in sporting life this week - especially his comment "With Long returning, I'm not sure Wigan can bounce back. Long's caused Wigan no end of misery over the years and he can help Hull put in a big performance". I have never considered that Long has caused us a great deal of misery, he has seemed to go missing in a lot of matches and his supreme goal kicking was the main difference between us and Saints in the 2002 challenge cup - thanks Sean

It sounds to me like Millwards favoured tactic is no longer as effective as it once was and he wants it changing back.
