That is exactly the point. They announced their coach was leaving and a new one would be announced in due course before their last game. So all those saying you can't announce Noble is going without saying who his successor would be need to take note - including IL

It wont work, logic doesn't seem to with the IL happy clappers

Celtic fans arn't wigan fans though.

If IL has nothing positive to announce then he will get beat down with it.

"Bloody hell, how can he not already know who the next coach is"

"we want Dave back" and so on.

Something that is getting thrown around at those who dont think IL is magic, yet nobody has ever said it, so why?

But given the fact everyone is convinced Noble is going yet there is no announcement people are speculating that he doesn't know who the new coach is anyway. He is getting "beat down" already because of the way he has handled this issue so far.

If he had said Noble was leaving and a new coach would be appointed in due course would [iyou[/i have complained? I wouldn't. As well as putting Noble in the picture officially which is what he deserves, it would have killed off the uncertainty that Noble might actually have been given a new deal which a lot of fans do not want. So even if we all think he is not going to be here in 2010 until it is announced he won't be, there is a nagging doubt he will get a deal at the 11th hour.



No one wants him back.

Let's keep Nobby!!!!

Proves nowt yet

Patience my friend

Noble to Celtic and Michael Mcguire to Wigan is now pretty much a certainty.

Mcguire is untested as a head coach of course but is rated as one of the top coaching prospects around in Australia and has been the assistant coach of the NRL minor premiers three years running (2006 - 200icon_cool.gif.

As I said a while ago. Noble will be joined by Iestyn Harris and the only thing holding up the McGuire move is possibñe problems with regards to his lack of first grade coaching.

Yea Yea, stop digging.



In reality, its obvious that the deal is on.

Dont jinx it!!

No I wouldn't have complained, but I'm not complaining that we don't know anything either.

I would be complaining though, if Noble himself did not know what his future was and was simply waiting. As he deserves better than that considering what he has done for us.

The man himself says he doesnt. I dont understand why people are so quick to dismiss that to prove their point.

Fair play to Catalancs he called well, whether it becomes true is another matter but it's heading that way.

Perhaps Catalancs you should make a thread when Noble's announced by Celtic and you can tell everyone you told them so.



Personally I don't care where Noble goes, all that matters to me is who comes to Wigan.

DON'T TELL ME.... I'M HAPPY CLAPPY, AND I DON'T CARE ENOUGH....

Where's the list?

He has never used the media to manipulate the situation has he?

Its all about saving face for BN and respect for other coaches.

Celtic have now announced that Dixon is gone......they will not announce a new coach i would expect till Wigan go out of the comp out of respect.

I may go on the Celtic site to see if they are all panicing clearly as no new man has been announced so they must be going into 2010 with no coach!!

NEVER!!





Already prepared and in waiting

Man you need help! The only one who looks like a plonker is you. You argued my scenario was daft yet one club has come out and done the exact same thing this week and most clubs have been doing the same thing for years basically proving you the plonker!

Im begining to think you are very close to IL with the way you blindly defend the man and shoot down anyone who dare question him.

What does anyone think to Kearney taking over after the four nations?
I know he's turned the job down in the past but does he have anything else to prove as an International coach? Waiting another 4/5 years to defend the WC, when he could really prove his abilities by taking traditionally one of (if not "the"icon_wink.gif most famous clubs in World RL back to the top?

This is a very encouraging article about Maguire from last year when he was linked to the Brisbane job.

You really answer your own question.

He does seem to tick all the boxes, Im not getting my hopes up however.
