Whats up? Did you lose?

IMO Cullen is a better coach than Calland. Its slightly unfair to compare the two given their disparity in experience, but thats my opinion as things stand.
Most people remember Cullen for his poor last couple of seasons at Warrington. He actually started of pretty decently with the Wire, then obviously went badly stale. He also did a very good job up at Whitehaven before making the step up to SL.
Calland was most unwise in making many of quotes to the press. The guy only heaped pressure on his own players and made himself look a bit of an arrogant twerp, especially as your form tailed off a bit soon aftert they were made.
He may well be a good coach, we'll see, but as yet he hasn't really proven himself yet. He 's also lucky to have a top quality 'assistant' in Martin Hall. How much input does HE actually have into your on-field going on?
So, purely thanks to his experience at the top level of the game (wasn't he England coach too?) and in the lower leagues, its got to be Cullen for me. Calland may well overtake him in time.

call yourself bulldog i dont think so what youon about cullen is widnes get behind our lads instead

what u on about, read the very good post , and allso see where bulldog is from, why should he get behind ower lads,?? he is only putting what he thinks which eveyone as a right to do

Cullen has more experience. He also has more money at his disposal and probably better training facilities. Matt comes out with some silly comments sometimes likely due to him being inexperienced. I do not think you can compare coaches at different clubs as each club is totally different in the way Training facilities are, what players and talent he has at his disposal, what the coaching team is like both in experience and talent.
For me when I listen to Cullen on Sky I switch off often after a couple of minutes as he just seems to make a basic point but then waffle on about it and what potentially is a good point to make it lost on me. Maybe he is different in training and a good coach. His record for me at wire is OK but nothing great. He started off well and Wire must thank him they stayed up. But he reached his limits and with the players and money he had he simply was poor and no wonder he went. I do not think he is a good SL coach like John Kear or Brian Mcdermott who for me do fantastic jobs with the limited resources they often have. However I think he is a good coach at this level.

Why everyone bothered about the widnes coach?Worry about fax and you be at the grand final have faith.
