He may have been a bit of a wild one, his biography was a different kind of read to put it mildly, but he has probably forgotten more than most of us will ever know. Fingers crossed on this one.

Very, very good appointment IMO.

If he makes us a better team, I've no problems with his signing.

Didn't see this one coming but on paper it looks a good appointment to me. Hopefully he can bring something to our stuttering attack alongside Gale




Would rather we had him rather than Cas

Strange one

The appointment or the person?

With our old team full I saw head lines though he was coming to play. UP there with the best in S L and played with the best If he can get 5 % of what he knows across to the players could be a good move

Fev don’t know what they’re doing, the bloke only lost two games.

Good appointment

Up the Trin

Bloody hell eggs never know we get all the xrap you write from lad

Or, as I said at the time of Ford leaving, they know Long is a championship quality coach at best which is why they wanted Ford in as DoR to oversee the drive for promotion. And now we've got him. I'm sorry but with the absolute state of decisions the board have been making lately, I've no patience for this level of nonsense. Applegarth doesn't need more assistant coaches, especially those from the championship - we need rid of Applegarth and an actual super league quality coach in place. Unless of course the boards aspiration is for Wakefield Trinity to become a championship club, which would make sense employing a championship standard coach.

Wow. Ford leaves trinity and becomes an amazing coaching wizard who oversees other coaches and is the guiding light of all.

Long who has lost only 2 games from this season and has placed his team at the top of the championship (a lot better than the aforementioned Ford at that level) signs for trinity and instantly becomes rubbish.

We could sign Demetriou or Bennett but would you be happy then? I’m not so sure.
