Best of luck to Shaun in whatever he gets up to in the future.
Realistic option for a new coach would be Brian Noble,dreamland coach would be Tony Smith.

so which of this weekends games on sky will McRae be at.

one question will the new man have the freedom or will Simms be holding him back?

Bloody hell you have to wait 65 years for news this momentous on your birthday

Happy birthday old fruit as a surprise from us all your the new head coach, Pev is in charge of fitness and KOTS motivational activities.

Given that we are on SKY tomorrow it will be interesting to see what Stevo says about this, think that him and SM are pally so I would bet that Stevo has the full inside track on what is wrong/going on at the club behind the scenes. Doubt he will be foolish enough to make any outlandish statements but I have little doubt there will be a few barbed comments regaurding SM's removal from his post.

Leigh fan who i work with reckons it's 100% nailed on Milward

What was that Tarry was saying about a high calibre appointment?

Aye bit depressing if true!

same old Salford if true, both he and Shaun Mcrae are cut from the same cloth

According to Wigan newspaper Adrian Lam is going to be throwing his hat in to the ring for the Salford job! Hope so!

Now that would really be the type of appointment I would hope for, very high qaulity player and every single report og him a coaching capacity speaks of him in only the best possible terms.

Farewell and best wishes to Shaun.

Do wonder if he's gone now because we've got someone else lined up??
The club need to resolve the Alker issue before appointing anyone IMHO.

Veivers has already said he'll be putting in for the job so he now has a chance to prove he's up to it.
Give him 6-8 games maybe to prove his worth, whilst sussing out other candidates?

Steve Simms couldn't pick his nose,lets have a Simms must go campaign.

I have it on good authority you will be receiving news on that very soon.

I hope our next coach can take us forward. I am sure we need a change and it can't come soon enough for me.

As we are probably looking at an immediate appointment might that mean that we go for an English coach as there would be no Work Permit issues which there might well be with an overseas appointment?
