Gary Thornton? Did a good job at York with the young lads and knows this division really well. Don't know if he knows RM at all.

Matt Calland.

Willie Poaching?

Brier's would be ideal.

Might be wrong, always am, but, I can't see our board going down that road.
Time to move on, no backward steps, please.

Might be wrong, often am, but didn't he apply for the head coach job?
Would he accept Assistant Coach?

Could we afford him?

One thing for sure it's going to be very interesting.
The old names that cropped up for head coach are popping up again.
BUT, who predicted Richard Marshall, there must be lots of names out there we don't even know about or even consider.
Could it be someone he works with already? Warrington or England? He has said it must be someone he can trust. So, my bet? Somebody he has worked with.
Might be wrong often am.

He always impressed me in his time at Batley. What I would say is the assistant coach should be a back with RM being a forard. Percy's, Fax. Mermaids Red, 5.7% Mmm!

Willie Poaching signed to be KR's assistant last week.... On the below link, the board said Lee Greenwood would return to the club at some point in the future, which does seem a little strange to say when you've just sacked him. I think he would be perfect, great apprenticeship & I'm sure he knows Marshall from when they played together here. www.loverugbyleague.com/news_161 ... lifax.html

Batley under KH, won the NR final & reached championship finals.

Won national, county & local cup finals with Calderdale college.

Won national conference with Siddal.

Who's available who's done as much?

Maybe Dave Clark is an option....? Ex Barrow coach who is RM'S Asst in the England Academy set up...? Knows this league well and can do the role P/T whilst still doing his RFL Development Officer role....?

RM says in this weeks press that he will be speaking to a couple of coaches during this week for the assistant role and also there should be medical staff in place.
The sports scientist and conditioner Andy Hollyhead who RM has brought in will be giving most of the players individual programmes to include fitness, speed, size etc.
Our overseas players will be arriving late November to early December but are already, Quote" Working hard for next season over there." Said RM.

Elsewhere Paul Sykes joins Fev from Wakey and Leigh pay Fev a 5 figure sum for Greg Worthington.
