Apart from everything else I wonder how much that has cost in just paying off the contracts alone?

And don’t forget, you can’t quote me otherwise you’ll be upsetting TF.

When you look at how quick Featherstone are to sack there coachs over the recent years it makes us look like saints in comparison. I know that there budget is a lot bigger than ours and with that comes high expectations but surely they could have given Long a bit more time and that is coming from me who as little patience on these matters. Also and i know it was only one game for me they already looked like a James ford coached side on sunday and i do not think he will improve them.

During his time at York when they had a bit of success there were quite a few that thought he was the best up and coming coach in the game and then he dropped out of the limelight somewhat in moving on in an assistant role.

Be interesting to see how Ford goes at Fev back as the head coach.

Batley have already announced Mark Moxon as the new head coach for next year. Led to believe Ben Kaye will be his assistant. Would leave Lingard without a job especially if the new coach at Cas brings in their own assistant, like Powell and Sheridan. Think Lingard would be better suited to the role than Liam Finn at present, as Liam is still only early days into his coaching career. League One and Championship have a big gap in quality too.

11 in 11 sounds a lot. Powell was there a good while.

Off the top of my head:
Long
McDermott
Carr
Powell

The 11 coaches:

Daryl Powell
Ryan Sheridan
Danny Evans
John Bastian
Andy Hay
Jon Sharp
John Duffy
Ryan Carr
James Webster
Brian McDermott
Sean Long

Great work. I forgot about Webster and Duffy having a crack at the job

I suspect you will be disappointed. Very much expect Finn to be the next coach. Let's not start a Finn out already

Didn't manage the Bierkeller last night. Firstly, was it a good do, and secondly were there any loose tongues as to who will be our next coach?

It was alright, nice to see people and a good feeling about the place.

But, what a terrible experience the Bierkeller is, most of the draught beer had run out, im told the "Haus Bier" or whatever they call it was off from 1600, various other stuff was run out of, there was a hand rail fallen off the stairs you had to step over to get to the bogs. and the upstairs room was like an oven, thankfully the outside area was ok with it been dry, but I won't be rushing back there.

Thanks for the feedback, Brew.

Announcement today at 5pm. Maybe the new coach?

I get why they club did it there, think it reflected poorly on Bierkeller though, but that said if the club wasn't hosting the event there it's likely the place would be empty. So lack of stock wouldn't be an issue.

I'd suspect today's announcement would be a renewed contract. But i'm guessing, I'm not sure when the right time to announce the new coach would be
