Read into this what you will but right now, at the Village Hotel, Noble, McGoldrick & Richard Wright are having a (what looks very serious!) meeting.

Interesting...

Also Noble's rlexpressed his dissatisfactionrl with SL clubs ignoring British coaches. I find his suggestion of including overseas on the quota an interesting one.

Noble's tapping them up for Halifax.

Topics covered so far include Ryan slagging off Matterson, Youth development, and Rangi's off field discipline issues.

Noble is 100% after the job. Wright has asked him how much influence he had over Wigan signing up youngsters and Sam Tomkins career kicking off. I can't imagine him not getting it. He's bulldozing Wright's questions!!

It's definitely not about Ryan.

They (Brian and Richard) asked each other whether they were bother if Ryan stayed or they'd like him to leave. Brian said he was fine for him to stay, he's an open man and has nothing to hide from the players.

Wright just said he's asking Noble questions that he will be asking everyone.

Oh, and Noble's just insisted on having the boardroom painted in purple and green stripes.

I was joking.... tapping THEM up....?

Oh dear!

I don't get that but I'm not a regular on the Cas page so I'll assume it's some sort of in-joke.

I'm with you.

You need to work on your 'jokes' mate. People are usually supposed to find them funny.

They're discussing Brian's style approaching discipline.

He said that it didn't matter whether the man had won them the match the night before, if he co[ic[/iked up after the match, he'd be on him the very next morning and discuss what the he'd done. He doesn't tolerate ing about.

Ryan gulped.

Edit - swearfilter avoidance - naughty naughty! Bonzo

Blimey, this is beginning to sound like Mills and Boon. Don't get me wrong, I think it's all a complete tissue of truth!
