Jamie bloem ( said in a high pitched voice of disbelief) that'd really inspire season ticket sales .

Let's face it, Fax have always gone for the cheap coaching option. The last coach to move on to become HEAD Coach at another club was Calland, and that was 8 years after he left us. Before that Linnane over 20 years ago. Besides that, all our coaches have either retired or gone on to be an assistant elsewhere really showing that they were not up to being the main boss. Hey, Tony Smith is free at the mo!

Not sure what people are expecting.

We are barely alive as a club and have a huge mountain to climb to even make it to the new season. We couldn't afford to pay our staff a few weeks ago.

Surely no one thinks we'll draw a big name coach?

We don't need a big name coach. At this moment in time we need someone who can get the club, team, fans , the town back supporting the Fax. Maybe Scott Murrell is the answer? Dusty Miller, Milltown Platinum Blonde 4.0% Mmm!

I'm a tiger tail man myself , tried a new pub on leymour Rd Golcar called the cask( fifth fiend ) they've got some nice beers on tap

I never suggested we should be getting a big name coach. Tony Smith was tongue in cheek. Coaches and players go hand in hand. You get a big name coach PLUS big name players which we obviously cannot afford. Or the other. That's why I suggested John Kear because he's as close to a tried and tested coach I "think" we could afford as we can get, who'll keep us from relegation over the next 2 years. I just get the feeling someone like Muzza will lose that cheeky grin when the going gets tough and Barrow are beating us at home.

I shall have to try that one, ive been to the Meltham one and that's decent!

Noticed yesterday that Mick Gledhill had tweeted that Keith Senior was going to be our next coach.

The tweet in full which included Alan Killshaw leaving Swinton was posted on Panthers Fans Facebook and is still there but if you check The Game Callers tweets it's nowhere to be seen so obviously been deleted.

Not like The Game Caller to outright lie, get some attention, then delete it, backtrack and pretend it never happened.

The man is to Journalism, what Fred West was to Landscape Gardening

I've heard Ryan Sheridan cropping up again.

Ryan Sheridan confirmed as assistant coach at Catalans so that's one off the list

Good..
