I think this is a good appointment for you and he can certainly take you to the next level. He is proven by winning trophies and has a magic touch at Leigh. As we all know Leigh have had major financial problems this year but just look at them in the table!

I would have been happy with IM at BV but we have to keep waiting for ours to be decided. I think on the pitch Cas will improve and be on the up, just hope we are too.

This is said in jest !! Right ?

millward did a tremedous job with us winning everything..then when he got the push he went to wigan..(our biggest rival's).
and truth be known i dont hink he's heart was with them.he seemed to lack intrest after having been with saints with all the trophys he'd won.
i think he'll be great prospect for you lot at cas.....think you'll have a great year next season with him in charge.

No jest, just my personal opinion. Not necessarily the same as everyone else's, just mine. I also know of an FC fan who'd much rather have IM than Agar but that isn't saying much.

Common sense dictates that we give Mr Milward a go, his CV is actually very impressive.

Who is to say that unproven assistant coach's from Aus would be any better?

Still how often does common sense every rear its head on these forums??

Does anybody know if gronk is available for comment on the subject

It'll be one of the worst decisions in Castlefords history.
Ask the likes of Paul Sculthorpe, Kris Radlinski, Brian Carney etc about his man management, particularly his treatment of young players.

Just check and see if Saints and Wigan improved after he left.

"Just check and see if Saints and Wigan improved after he left"

Saints improved during his leadership - Wigan didn't.

Thats the biggest concern and for that reason alone did not want him at Wakey.

That said it seems views are split 50/50 with fans from previous clubs so who knows how it will turn out, don't think its the doom and gloom a few are showing tbh.

And yet Tony Smith is happy to let his youngsters come to Leigh , as was Saints with Jake Emmit and Tom Armstrong

Sorry i thought this was about Millward

The young Wigan academy players hated him and were treated appallingly by him. If you want an insight read Radlinskis book.

Millward IS one of Leighs big financial problems.
1) His salary
2) Salary cap, again. How many times is that with clubs under his tenure? Saints, Wigan and Leigh.

Be careful what car you give him.

I don't think it's a bad choice - how many good coaches are there out there looking for work anyway. What do people expect your not Wigan or Saints. I'd have had him at Wakey though not as a first choice. I think the love fest everyone seems to have with Mr Gentle has muddied the waters. He looked interesting but when you boil it down I can't see where he's that much better than the rest other than he has the most recent NRL experience.

At least you didn't sign some of the real duffers mentioned.
