I’m struggling to see why though.

Be interesting to see if there is a statement made of to why WP/FC departed to make way for Mash.

I would imagine it’s for financial reasons but I doubt they would say that

I am sorry but if true every action so far smacks of cost cutting. He may be knowledgeable about the Trinity youth team but what does he know to assist with regards future signings.

I think it's worse than that.
We have enough money to talk to Andrew Fifita so we are not skint, we just need to use it wisely.
This isnt using it wisely, its showing a complete lack of understanding of what is needed.
Like I said, I don't thing our board is that daft. But they may be about to prove me wrong.

Has someone hacked your account, i am agreeing with more and more of your posts these days

Bad mistake if true

The longer the club goes on without anyone high up with a genuine rugby league background or experience we’ll never go anywhere, who gives the advice to business men to make rugby related decisions?

My comment is about Matty Peet!

Weird with a capital F

Not sure about this if true.
To be honest I’m a bit underwhelmed at the thought of it.
The lad may be a good coach at lower level but is unproven at senior level. Time will tell I just hope the club make the right choice!

Wow.
Didn't expect that.
I suppose he will have the total respect of the acadamy players that have (and can now) step up....

Yes so am I agreeing with you, we can only be in an alternative universe but the question is will it help sell season tickets, I just don’t see how it will. The other problem is what gravitas does he have amongst players we are looking to sign. With regards Peet he was in a different situation, Wigan had a good squad and are a big name in SL we have offloaded most of ours and how do you sell Trinity to a possible new signing.

He managed the reserves this season mixed full of senior and youth. Where did they end up? In the grand final.

Also last year he managed the academy into arguably the best in the league.

Maybe not my choice and it is a high risk play but success seems to come to the teams he coaches and they play a effective brand of rugby.

If it’s him he should be afforded chance to prove people he can do it. It may not be though so let’s wait and see.

Could be Mash as head coach with Dennis Betts as head of rugby

Alright, keep your pants on.....
And, Yes & Yes.

Entirely correct the bloke has talent and ability. However lets see the calibre of signing he is given to work with because without the players he will fail.
If the club expect a rookie ,albeit talented rookie, to compete he must at least given a reasonable squad. From some names we hear, he could be already on a loser before a ball is kicked.

Danny Orr linked now so it looks like a lot journalistic gossip is getting into social media

Same again … as have Danny Orr who has never coached at SL we should have kept Poching who was inding his feet ! All v underwhelming and confusing at the minute .

I give up - short of appointing a bin man or lock lane coach on a part time basis this is the cheapest options - so next season our midget geriatric team is going to be coached by someone with no track record of sl we are a total joke

Not sure but good luck mA

Just thinking this one mA has been battling away for few years now mc and jm has given a clear indication that there is a opportunity to process so yes for me

Sorry but not for me this one if true. He may be a talented up & coming coach but managing academy players is a world away from coaching at super league level. He’s had one year as a co-assistant coach at first team level, and even that was a job that he had to split his time between along with his lower grades work. He effectively has no top level coaching experience at all. The club has lost the plot if this is the case.

Excellent Betts’ experience of taking Widnes down never to return will be extremely useful.

I am surprised why we have not received what Vastman thinks of this.

Didn’t think it was possible for Cheapy McCheap to be even cheaper.
