| rlLooks an impressive CV - Wiganer to bootrl
Looks like Forshaw is staying on (for the moment)
Looks like some players are in for a huge culture shock with the new regime.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good

sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

| Beat me to it you little sod 
Good news, he appears to have lots of experience. I wouldn't be happy if it was just Mike Forshaw. |

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Excellent news, sound like a very good appointment and by keeping Forshaw it'll mean we have more resources and man power in which to share amongst the players, and he's a local lad as well.

Seems an outstanding candidate, MM has picked him, so clearly he liked something he had to say.
Impressive that he is a Wiganer as well.
I wonder how long Forshaw will stick it?

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Frightening (if you're a player)
Bloody good news for us spectators.

Well if he has been taking shortcuts and cutting corners, doing things wrong, he certainly won't be getting off lightly much longer. |

It does seem unlikely that he would stick around after such a demotion.
Unless he acknowledges himself that he needs time to obtain more experience and qualifications.
It makes the decision to bring him in as head SaC coach in the first place all the more mystifying.
Anyway glad we've got someone who actually has evidence of the necessary experience and qualifications to get our side into shape. |

Where's Jonh when we need his "experienced views"?
I'm sure Jonh will know about him through his contacts.

| Quote: Glynola "Sounds like a great appointment
All looks good from that article. He is obviously very experienced, a BSc in Sports Science and a Masters Degree in Sports Physiology along with nine years experience in that position at the highest level of Rugby Union and Football - certainly must know his stuff!
Born in Wigan and a Warriors fan. Always a winner
I also like the fact that Mike Forshaw (although I don't think he has been good enough) & Mick Turner will provide assistance in this department and have the chance to learn from someone who is very experienced in this department and take some of the work load away from the other coaches while having to do a reputable job as they must report to Mark.
All seems very positive and a step in the right direction.
Now just the Reserves and Academy coaches next please Mr Chairman!

He's probably chucked the toys - IIRC he had an interview at Gloucester around the time this fella was appointed |
