how do you know this

Never thought I would have said this this but - its time to bring John Kear in. Give him until the end of the year and see if he can salvage anything from this shipwreck of a season.

I'm not sure the Cas job would be attractive to any proven coach except one looking for a final pre-retirement pay day. DP is nicely placed at Fev to bide his time for a return to SL at a club with better prospects than ours and that may include his present employers. As we lurch from one embarrassing setback to another we would do well to remember that the SL license of a failing club may be revoked 'mid-term' and currently you could be forgiven for thinking our BOD accept that will be our fate at the end of this season. So DP might not even have to wait long or move anywhere for another shot at the big league.

Make you think this could be the reason Ferres walked...

I think Kear would make a big difference to you guys,, your backs and hooker seemed lively and of course Chase has the quality but you had no leadership or discipline. You just seemed incapable of doing the hard work in attack and defence. Kear would sort that.
