Webster had apparently run out of ideas of how to address the slump according to this rag where Washbrook is interviewed... www.dailystar.co.uk/rugby-league ... ings-right Hope the new coach will look at player fitness/stamina, attitude and defensive structures. I think Scott Anderson on his day is a great player for Trinity but he looks heavier now he has returned from injury. Paea had one match on live TV last week to show off his new hairdo (probably in response to Fui Fui) then doesn't play the next week with no explanation as to whether he's injured and Trinity squad are light in the front row today.

I wouldn't be surprised to be honest, its a job that can only look good on your cv. For one it shows you have plenty of fight and desire to take the job in the 1st place, keep us up and your value has doubled straight away, if we go down at least you did your best but we were too far gone in the first place so you either stay and try to bring us back up or move on with the experience under your belt.

I'm not, thanks to a slip by TRB many years ago I was revealed in full - no I've never forgiven him either



I had a choice - change my name on here, stop posting or stand by what I say. I chose the latter and since then Ive only been physically abused once and verbally half a dozen times. You learn to live with it though it curtails public appearances.

So go on who are you?

Be brave.

If were losing and I'm in a grumpy mood I'll tell you on Sunday

I bet the fans don't see half of the game today, they'll be too busy watching the crowd for prospective coaches.

Well Paul Anderson did smile when I asked him if he was interested as he was about to go in the ground

Stu Dickens will get the job at least till end of the season.
Who else would want to coach this shambles?
Is this the worst Wakefield team ever? Been going since 1989 and even 1995 and 2011 better than this rubbish. Also heard Craig Hall and Paea have requested to leave in light of Carter's comments.

Craig Hall has looked like he left a few weeks ago never mind following Carters comments.

If Craig hall and para have asked to go it says everything for me about them. No balls no guts and weak character.

And if they do go at least the new coach will be able to fetch 2 players he wants in and plenty of time to get them playing b4 the split

Paea gone to Sydney City Roosters

Assume he has gone to be ball boy/ water carrier?

I wouldn't be sorry to see Hall go if that comment earlier is true. I'm more sad that Paea has gone because I don't think we really saw what he can do for us. Injury prevented that.

Hall has shown what he can do and to be honest I'm not very impressed.

Good grief we have been provided with a reason for every rumour earlier this week it was Collis but yet I saw no lack of commitment today. I note today it is Hall, he is not in the team so must want away therefore one of the players singled out by Carter in his radio interview.
I think it would be better if he now came clean and name those he was referring to in order to prevent this continuous assumption and the usual tirade that follows on the forum. We will now have this continuous uncertainty the problem is that we have the smallest squad which is getting smaller. I would like him to now state where he expects to find suitable replacements and who will identify them.

We don't have to have anything of the sort. What went on in the changing rooms between M C and the players. I think he was right to challenge them and hope they man up. They have been given the option to go if they prefer. If it's best for the club let them.

I agree Lampy. He doesn't have to name them. They just need to put effort in and we'll know.

On his pre-match interview on Radio Leeds yesterday Stuart Dickens said that Carter said what needed to be said. The players had to hear it and it was an honest clear the air moment.

When the Catalans chairman had such an out burst last season it kick started their year. Our little chairman out burst probably came a bit later in the season than I would have wanted. It happened because Carter had lost someone who he really valued. He was hurt on a personal side not just financial.

I think Carter did the right thing. If the consequence is it sets us back 1-2 weeks but we finish stronger at the end of the season then I'm all for it.

I know he can't name them but neither should he have gone to the press. I would suggest whoever we appoint offer them a bonus to keep us up because let's face it we are a basket case who will only survive in SL despite what some on here believe.

If MC hadn't gone public about what he said to the players, then probably more fans would have stayed away for the Widnes game and he would have been criticised for not caring. The guy cannot win!!Damned if he does & damned if he doesn't.

I have to say this is a difficult decision

Kear has a job and so will need to be convinced
Morrison has a job and they won't let him go this season so is a future appointment rather than immediate
Kelly seems like a good plan as he ticks a lot of boxes but he has been out of the game a long time and I wonder whether he could do it

Apparently the guy at Gateshead (who was at Cas......who's name eludes me) is interested but I've seen nothing on his CV that makes me think he's the guy either

JD would be a great appointment but he has a better gig now and really isn't an option to us.
Karl Harrison has some credentials but I'm not sure about him. Assistant at Bradford, not even head coach, but a possible
On that subject, Cummins is being talked about but he doesn't strike me as the tough leader so I'm not sure he's the man either.

So I'm no wiser really................I guess we'll see.

Dave Woods is the name.
There is also Nobby, who will have applied and apparently a couple of Aussies who have 'experience' over here.

Is Woods still at Gateshead?. I thought Stanley Gene was coach there.
Going down the Aussie route Mick Potter might not be a bad call.

If Nobby gets a shout you can expect a return of J S to the starting lineup.

Got to be Kear for me. He won't accept a lack of heart or pride and I think if anyone can get them defending/playing as a team, then it is him. I was sorry to see him go in the first place. As a twenty-four year old, I grew up with some of my favourite trinity performances under his tenure.

From the names i have been told are rumoured to have applied, there are plenty who want the job, although a couple must surely be just chancing there arm!!

Francis Cummins
Brian Noble
Neil Kelly
Steve McCormack
Warren Jowitt
Barry Eaton
Dave Woods
Francis Stephenson
Karl Harrison
Couple of Aussies??

Anyone heard anymore?
