to go who would you like as coach and who do you think realisticly would hull actually get??

Mcbanana from Bradford

Kearney for me but Agar aint going anywhere for a good while yet !!

a rich man nananananananananananana

All the signs (apart from the performance on the pitch, and what's right for the club) suggest that he will be staying.
If he left, I'd love to Wayne Bennett, but that won't happen in a million years. If Wigan fail to reach Wembley, Noble may come available and I would be happy with him at the helm. If not, it looks like the only other choice would be McNamara or Jon Sharp, may the gods forbid.

Folkes
Murray
Millward
Hasler

Anything less than these and its a dissapointment.

An overseas coach would need a visa, so you wouldn't see them this season.
Can't think of any likely British coaches either. The only one who is available and has been successful in SL is Ellery Hanley?

WORLD CLASS COACH FOR A WORLD CLASS CLUB

Rich Agar(pres) v Brian Smith(1989-91) discuss why we have gone downhill since Brian

No stability.

I know for a fact that any new addition brought to the club for next season is Agars doing and that the board are currently giving him their full support.
If they had any thoughts of getting rid of him why would the board be bringing in recommendations of a coach on borrowed time.

He is here for the long ride folks !!

Just a few ideas off the top of my head that I'm sure will re-affirm to most of you what an idiot I am. Although I don't entirely blame Agar for our predicament, I don't think he can solve it either. This indicates to me that there has to be a chance for any success to be achieved. In no particular order...


Head Coach

Stephen Kearney (Seems to be the fans choice)
Bradley Clyde (Legend, attract top signings and would take no )
Shane Webke (See above)
Royce Simmons (Didn't have a chance last time, never forget his marathons)
Brian Smith (Obvious)
Gary Freeman (Great tactician on the field, I think he's looking for a post)
Shaun Edwards (Really successful in union with unorthodox methods)
Tony Rea (Always impressed with his analysis)
Ellery Hanley (Legend, disciplinarian, would attract good signings)

Assistants

Matt Calland (Fax play lovely expansive rugby)
Adrian Lam (Halfback coach)
Garry 'Judas' Schofield (Only if we got Hanley)
Tony Grimaldi (Just for the professionalism)
Stacey Jones (Halfback coach)
Paul Sculthorpe (get some use out of that car)

Noble.

Not for me. Done nothing at Wigan IMO

Any forward thinking Aussie coach is whats needed but for me your next head coach will be Sharp.

Noble no chance Paul please tell me that was a joke. He has had money at Wigan at they have not improved, took over a very good side at Bradford too. Kearney or Foulkes for me. But I want to see Agar given abit more of a chance with his new signings.

Having listened to Rule on the radio last night it should be quite clear to anyone else who heard it that Agar will be our coach next season. He's clearly been given autonomy over who next season's signings will be and will stand or fall by those recruits.

Agar will be the coach, not doubt about it.

As for those who mention Kearney, he has already said he won't come to SL at this stage of his career. Despte what people think I would take Noble like a shot, would improve us no end.

Very very questionable - the only success he had at Bradfud was when the Bulls were blatantly fiddling the Salary cap !!!!!!!!!!!!
His pack alone cost £1.6m in wages - how could he fail ?
Now he is operating in the rules look at him , let's not forget he would have relegated Wigan if they hadn't fiddled the SCap again with Fielden.
BULLS and WIGAN are the 2 worst fiddling gets and I do not recognise any of their success

Noble - no thanks

Agree, although Folkes isn't involved anymore in RL. I would also add Henry to that list too.

Jesus no...........a lot of the wigan speccies arent botherd if his contract doesnt get re-newed as the rumours out of Wigan are Adrian Lam.

He wouldnt have relegated them...that was Millward who get them in that mess,Noble and Lindsey fiddled the cap to keep them up.

At the end of the day if he did go it would be a mistake. the problem fc are famous for is inconsistencies. both with players aswel as staff/management. Agar needs to be here for at least 2 or even 3 full seasons to have a lasting impact on the club. if we are still like this this time next year then maybe the question should be asked but i personally feel we cant judge the man on a bit of a season lasty year and half a season so far this year. Also if the players arent performing the best coach in the world couldnt do anything so they need a coach to trust and who they can relate to for a period of time rather than constantly changing the coaches and staff

Think you've got that so wrong!! If the Wigan board had given Milly the cash that they let Noble go ahead and cheat. Millward then may have had a chance. Truest part of your statement is that Noble and Lindsey fiddled the cap. Noble has never been an advocate of youth and it is only now, that he at last has begun with some of the talent around the youngsters that Wigan are playing a little bit more like a top half of table team. Look at the players that Wigan, over time have let go, think Wigganers like me must be praying for a new coach who has the motto "if the're good enough; the're old enough........grannyfan

Anyone but Agar, i wait to be proven wrong about him but he isnt doing much currently.

This is irrelevant as Agar will be the coach next season and if he fails next season then we will look to replace him and who knows who could be available by then.
