Another one bites the dust -  Sacked by Castleford - Chris Chester to take over as interim.

Don't know what the owners expect a manager to do with that squad 

shocked. that came out of the blue.
what a joke of a club

Dreadful from Cas but always on the cards the moment Chester walked through the door. Having him watching your every move can't have been the most conducive environment for improving things Magsy's way. 

What makes you say it came out of the blue? They have been dreadful all year and just got thrashed by the worst side in the league barring Salford and he didn`t have a clue how to fix any of it. There squad isn`t great but think it`s better then what DM and Delaney have been getting out of them, they turn up every week looking like a bunch of players that have just met each other for the first time, completely out of his depth. 

Yep. Joke of a club with poor players. Not sure what they expect 

the real person to blame is whoever does the recruitment. it's been absolutely garbage for years

Joke club, what coach could have possibly survived their appalling squad. 


What benefit will it possibly bring, do they think they'll charge into the playoffs now?


Depending on how it would work in terms of synergy, I'd be interested to see whether we'd bring Danny back as an assistant. 

I'd bring him back straight away. But probably not as an assistant per se. I think that may upset the dynamic of the current set up but maybe as a specialist halfback coach across all teams, mens, reserves, academy and even the women's team and have a hand in pathways.

But he may just want to take his payout from gas and just do some easy media work for a while.

On the other hand he was also shown the door at KR with them preferring Danny Ward.

Which is why I don't think a normal Assistant coaching job is the way forward if he is to come back
