Morris might be a decent bet. Very highly rated by Jason Demetriou which is a pretty good recommendation.

| If we got Wane I'd show my arris in Woolies' (now pound land?) window. He's so dyed in the wool Wigan he'd never touch us with a bargepole and rightly so. We'd be poison I'm afraid. I must say I don't understand how he can be England coach and still have this mystical 'role' at the pie dome. Surely a clash of interests. Does my head in seeing him sitting chatting to Peet before games on Sky. You never see him so friendly with other team's coaches.

He literally works for Wigan on a paid basis, so his interaction with the coach of the club he works for is clearly going to be different to how he is able to interact with other coaches. I don't think Wellens, Peters, Watson etc would be thrilled if he rocked up in the team dug out pre game.
I'd also disagree with there being no way he'd go to Wire. Yes, he's a proud Wiganer but he's not thick and if the will is there to get back in to day to day coaching and the money was right, I think Warrington would be up towards the top of the list of clubs he would go to-Local to him, knows some of the players, ambitious and a great opportunity to run everything his way. It would all come down to his appetite to be back in full time club coaching but I don't see it being Warrington as any sort of issue tbh.

Sadly, the egos at Warrington wouldn’t touch Wane. He’d certainly change the culture for the better, that’s for sure.

| Quote: NickyKiss "Burgess would be such a Fitzpatrick appointment. As an opposition fan, I sort of judge who you should get, on who I don't want you to get. I would've been chuffed for the league as a whole to see Holbrook back here because he is quality and will raise standards but obviously I think that would've meant you guys then being successful and I'd rather Wigan were. Out of the names being floated around, the only one that really worries me is Shaun Wane. I don't say that as a Wiganer, who is biased about his ability and thinks he can do no wrong but I genuinely think he would turn Warrington in to regular trophy winners. The club has the resources to do that but it needs the right man in charge. You have invested in your academy in the last decade but it feels like you've never had the right man in charge of the first team, who will back those lads and give them the confidence to become top level first team players. It is the only way to bring regular success and there would be nobody better to oversee that.
I hope you don't go for him but if whoever is making the decision wants success, I'd be offering him whatever it takes.'"
Good post.
I agree with the gist of your comments, but not with regards Shaun Wane.
Wane has coached virtually all the Wigan developed players from them being 14/15 years old and has moulded them into his way of playing the game from that age, He is a father figure to them and they have a very close relationship.
If he came to Warrington, he wouldn`t be afforded anywhere near the time he required to replicate what he has done at Wigan. The Board AND fans want success within probably a 2 season timescale, and he would be moved-on.

I didn't know his role at Wigan was paid, that makes his role with England/vice versa even more of a clash of interests to me. Oh well, funny old game!

Not seen Stuart Pearce for while. Has he gone the same way as some of our previously ardent forum members?

We"ve had a few seasons on the run of dissapointment and as you say we need someone with a proven track record and it looks like we are going to do a coin toss.

| Agree with Nickykiss. I think Wane would love that shot at Wire. You have under achieved for donkeys and have the money available for him to work his magic. Even without new signings he would have you competitive because he doesn't accept a drop in standards. When he became head coach (remember some Wigan players having bleach blonde hair?) That was the 'late for training punishment' No hair dye, no playing time. He rules with an iron fist but all the players also loved him and his passion is without question and would endear himself to the fans. One sticking point i can see. I just can't see him working with Fitzpatrick. His sole aim at Warrington just seems to be 'getting one over on Wigan' i don't think he knows what he is supposed to be doing. I don't think Wane could work with a man who loves putting out stupid tweets, memes and media comments. It would send him stir crazy. If he DID take the job with KF in the CEO role i could see them falling out pretty quickly.

If it meant Fitzpatrick goes to get Wane in I can live with that.
