When will it happen as it surely will now we have our franchise

Indeed it will - he'll go to Cas next season and should go positively, with our best wishes; Mr Agar =#FF0000(I meant Matterson - sorry!) gave a good example of how to exit a club with dignity and good grace, so no reason we can't do the same.

We should be scouring the NRL for an assistant with aspirations to step up - someone ask Trent Robinson if he's got any mates.

For me that is a conversation for another day.

Lets get Steve Georgallis in

For me that is a conversation for the negative short sighted amongst us.

Let everyone celebrate the success before you start with you general negativity

I agree mate, didn't take them long did it.

I'd rather keep him but if he goes he deserves our best wishes and if he stays deserves our full support.

I'm leaning towards a new brush a bit more these days but not a panic one.

What we need to remember is next season we will still have no money. The upgrade of BV will not come cheap but it's a small price to pay.

It is time for a fresh start, and the search must start now for a new coach. Kear has done well in the majority of his tenure and I thank him for that, He has been the best SL coach the club have had. Things have turned sour last and for segments of this season but take nothing away from him for what he has achieve whilst here.

Flipping eck,it has'nt taken long for your euphoria to subside!!!!!!!!

"IF" we can spend up to the salary cap,i for one think he deserves a chance to do so.

HOW SOON WE FORGET

Apparently been interviewed for the Cas job.

For me it is the same principle as the Franchise.
It should be the best man for the job. Kear should be included in that assessment. If he is the best for us then he stays.

I don't agree with the "new start" just for the sake of it.
There is so much change going on, I'd be happy for the stability in the coaching staff for now.

lol. Trust somone to go to negative posts! We should be happy about getting a license not going on about Kear out.

Like many, a topic for another day!

The reason I say it is positive we have been given a life line and now need to build so we need next seasons coach in place before silly season starts

Not at all - care to point out the negativity in my post?

Some would see it as a positive than we can actually start planning for next year in SL. Clearly, we are way behind everyone else in recruitment so the coach needs to be sorted out for next season so the process of signing and retianing players can begin asap.

JK has had some good times with us and bad times. He has been here for quite some time and a new approach with new ideas may be what we need to kick on.

Give Kear some cash to bring some decent signings in and the wins will follow

He's had nothing to work with down to agent Richardson so how on earth any one can point the finger at john is beyond me

He's a coach & manager not a miracle worker

You did not suggest we bring Ben Jeffries back.

Eh?????? Do you have some good news for me, that i don't already know?

Gah - sorry, I mean Mr Matterson.

I'm all in a tizz this morning, for reasons I'm sure you'll understand!

I was really aiming at the OP but you are effectively saying sack him. I see that as a negative right now. He is as much a part of the success of the club as anyone else. The timing for the discussion makes it as negative as the words.

I’m not saying sack him, his contract is up at the end of the season.

As a bit of background he has been looking at alternatives over the past year, only fair Trinity should do the same.

Absolutely not - I am in fact saying the opposite; I'm saying that both parties should part amicably because it's the right thing to do, not that anyone should be sacked. Given that JK has applied for several jobs in recent months, it seems clear that he feels the same way; I just hope it's done positively and with no detriment to either party.

You can apologise when you feel ready.

Oh.... Thanks for that



There is no excuse, how angry would you be now if the RFL came out and said "sorry, Halifax are in, not Wakey"



Only kidding, just though it was a case for double celebrations... LOL

Congratulations by the way!!!

True but he'd be right in suggesting that was somewhat forced on him.

Congratulations....!!!

However you lot have short memories.... JK was offered Catalans no disrespect to you several steps up the ladder !! but your board wouldn't let him go !! Considering the great job hes done beg stealing borrowing players keeping you up once before losing players to us and cats when you went 'bust' and finally when he might have some money to spend... after you rightly have to spend £500k plus on your ground, you want rid of him !!!

Beggars belief !!! You want loyalty with none back ! serve you right if he went to Cas and came and spanked you twice next season.......
