Great!

Think it's too early in his career. Hope if it's announced the board have got it right!

I can’t spake!

FFS

I'm hoping it's poor journalism and he's just temporary until they interview and decide who takes us forward.
It just seem right at all.

Great bloke and obviously talented with the young playes. however its one hell of a leap upwards. I also fear he will be asked to work with a miserly budget.

See an article where it says he's in the running, not appointed.

Good luck to him but I can’t see there being a stampede of people going for season tickets. It’s obviously one area they are saving money on. They said there was less money to spend but feel for Willie if this is true. It’s almost like they know we won’t be in the top league when the new structure comes into place

Again of true its seems to be the Wigan/Peet philosophy, lots of young players coming through and he will have their confidence, sadly its the older players he may struggle with. Its a very bold approach which could backfire spectacular for both himself and the club, again all if true.

it wouldnt suprise me if all he has to work with are the young players. I really hope it works out for him and he just dosnt become the fall guy

Strong words there, did Poching stab Chester in the back?

Yep, have to agree with all of the above comments but let's hope (if true) that he can be Wakefield's answer to Matty Peet


BUT....just to throw a spanner in the works, Dennis Betts has just stepped down at Newcastle

Nice enough bloke and done a good job with the youngsters, but head coach, not in my eyes, not yet anyway. And people thought that WP was inexperienced.
I think that he will be the interim coach, but you never know, time will tell.
