I think shaun wane with jon sharpe as assistant wouldnt be a bad team.

No.

If its right about Forshaw leaving, we need a specialist conditioner, who has more than a 12 week training course to his/her name.
If Vievers is leaving, which i believe is nailed on regardless of who is head coach, we need a successfull number 2, who the head coach can work with, not appoint a number 2 before the head coach.
Whilst Jon Sharp has had some success as a no 2 (under millward wasnt it?) from his time at saints, it will be the single biggest death knell in the clubs aim to improve attendances if he is appointed head coach.
It shows a lack of ambition quite frankly. If true of course.

Who is to say the new head coach isnt already appointed and has found his own assistant.

Well if thats the case, and said head coach has requested Jon Sharp has his number 2, then thats fair enough.

As we should be allowing the Head Coach to pick his staff as without that he is hamstrung from the start.

If he comes I believe he will be the no 2. Or a coach, it looks like we have Wane, retained for next year. Knowing what IL is like he knows who the HC will be.
I have a feeling the HC will be from down under, with Wane,and Radz working under him, with Maybe sharp in there to. Unless this is all panic and he is going to Celtic with Harris and Noble as a director of rugby role?

I would hope the HC post has been long sorted, I for one cannot believe that Nobby is still turning up to work everyday without knowing what is happening next year.

I used to work with a load of contract lads, and they always managed to find out if their contract was being renewed, and if the answer was anything other than yes, they would ring thier agency and get them to find them somewhere new.

If every normal working day life that would be true. But Noble knows what he is doing next and he might be going for extra £. So he probably doesnt GAF, he is just sitting tight hoping we win something and letting IL take all the flak.

I'm not making this one up - like I said, heard this from people high up at Leeds as I was on a corporate jolly last night, and speaking to a few of them after the game. He resigned on Thursday as I highlighted page 1.

This isn't a Brett Kimmorley wind-up. Sharp is connected to a number of people at Leeds. The people who told me thought it was complete bollox as well at first, but now think differently.

Think of the connection between Leeds and Hull.

Bye Bye to bumper season ticket sales if true

Where is Forshaw off?

The Moon, hopefully.

Not popular with the Pie fans?

great player,rubbish conditioner

Thats the problem he hasn't stopped Feka eating them.

Sharp was a summariser on five live sports extra tonight for the saints v hudds game. He said that he left Hull as he has realised that he wants to be a head coach and that doing a different role (at Hull) has confirmed that in his mind. Doubt that he will be at Wigan but due to what he said coupled with him resigning at Hull I would expect him to begin as head coach at a club soon. Can't see him taking an assistant role again.
