Depends on how you look at it. You can throw everything into 4 games and sod the rest of the season or you can try to to turn up every week and win. Let’s see how Hodgson does over the season. Too many mood swings under Radford and by the way, I don’t subscribe to your assertion that fans suddenly turned against Radford after he was sacked. This forum was alive with “Radford out” topics for at least 2 years before he was relieved of his duties.

Another team are after him , Big English RU club .

There’s. a few on the Cas forum, spitting feathers, good luck Lee but not against us

Will be interesting to see how he gets on.

He helped give me that day in 2016, so I’ll be forever grateful, but I’m more than happy we’ve got BH now!

Warry then Wigan famous famous victories at that there London, Wembley, what weekends the great Radders created for this old duffer, he will be forever remembered as the coach who silenced half a City.

Good luck to him.
That day in 2016 will live long in the memory and he has my gratitude for that.
I think we perservered too long and its easy to forget that for a few seasons we were a very good side.

Silenced a third of the city. The other two thirds are black and white

Anybody else get the feeling Shaul will end up there as well?

If Evalds signs a deal I cant see it.

Have a feeling Shaul will go to Rovers to replace Quinlan

Could see Faraimo going there.

Again need to get players signed up, make sure Radford doesnt try and sign her likes of Griffin and Savelio, although cant see why they would leave Hull for Cas.

If Watts isnt happy I'd love to have him back, although not sure how he gets on with Taylor

Good luck to Radders. Gave us two happy days at Wembley so will always be fondly remembered by me. On the topic of Liam Watts, I would have him back any day, we need another big unit in the pack in my opinion and he gives a team other options with his speed and ball skills. Another injury or two to our front rowers and we start looking too light in the pack. One would hope any personal differences could be put aside by professional sportsman.

Nail on the head there with Faraimo.Would do well at Cas
Taylor is the problem but would love to have Watts back

Good luck Lee.

Not many Coaches have two Challenge Cup wins in their CV, so he was always going to get another job.

Enjoying Brett being in charge, but as others have said we’ll always have a warm welcome for Lee for giving us those Wembley wins.

I would think that should Watts want to leave Cas then he'd more likely follow Powell to Warrington.

Best wishes to Radford. As oithers have said he led to club to our greatest day however nothing lasts forever and the decision to sack him was the correct one.

Good luck to Lee just needed things freshening up for FC. Will make the Cas - Wakey games a little more interesting if/when the get rid of Chester & Andy Last takes over.

Not sure if Watts would want to do the daily travelling to Warrington.

As you say best wishes to Radford, took us as far as he could and became the first coach to win at Wembley so he’ll always have a place at the club. Sadly nothing lasts forever and it was indeed the right decision to part ways.

I think lee briers will be his assistant.

Fans of every club hoping to move for Watts on social media

What the hell are Cas thinking? Had lots of resources here at FC but consistently underformed. The whole of Super League are now happy that Cas have in effect downgraded their coach - Mugs!

2 challenge cups

As I said earlier be surprised if Hodgson wins more or levels it

All this Hodgson love affair now but if we don't win anything this or next year the pressure is suddenly turned

For reference, in Radford's first two seasons we finished 11th and 8th winning 22 out of 57 and got to the Cup Quarter Final once.

LR inherited a very different setup, with lots of rebuilding to do in all areas, BH has inherited a very good squad as his starting point.

We might have had a good squad but it certainly wasn't a good team.
You can't underestimate what BH has done, he's introduced a different process and structure, galvanised the team and changed the culture.
The squad LR is inheriting isn't too shabby and he is already planning his retention and recruitment.

To be fair to LR when he first started he certainly did make big changes and improvements but after the 1st CC win I think that's when it stared to unravel and he couldn't stop the slide or rot in terms of attitude, application and getting a performance out the squad week in week out which is what ultimately cost him.
