I have backed JK to the hilt this is no knee jerk reaction but at last I feel it is time for a change but I will always have the upmost respect for John Kear, but it is time for him to move on.

If so please please not Harrison, Powell, Sharpe time to look at an Aussie coach with modern coaching skills

Disgraceful this afternoon same old mistakes week in week out

I can only hope...

I admire your optimism TRB! I genuinely hope we are surprised as it seems like everything hinges on us getting our own shiny new stadium.

Something just feels different about Trin this year. It's even more dull to watch than ever. We've got cast offs and bargain players as per usual, several of them to attempt to fill the void left by Brough, Tronc, Newton to a lesser extent, but unlike '07 and '08, and even '09, the application and desire just isn't there, and the names we've been linked to (and their respective positions that they fill) don't bode terribly well. They don't even seem to paper any cracks, never mind fill them... I really do think we need a change to get that spark back into the dressing room and recapture the underdog spirit. Who could do that job for us is a completely different matter

Ultimately - but no-one gave us much hope of getting to this stage, with a fully funded package, this quick. With OPP we can then move directly to the detailed submission and so on...

I take your point, but this is being persued on many levels with the turn-key event being the PP.

I think people need to be realistic. We are not a big club, but the three players we lost this season would have affected any club in Super League, let alone Wakefield. It's impossible to get like for like replacements half way through a campaign. We've had one top eight finish, and everyone now expects this to be a minumum benchmark. John Kear is the best coach this club has had for over 20 years, and has had one bad half season and now everyone wants rid. If he were to go, I don't think we'd be get anyone with a better track record wanting to come to Wakefield.

what gets me about king john is, the way things are going he might not get another job in sl just like cullen,harrison,powell and be looking in from the sides. do yourself a favour and walk away now before you destroy your chances of a job and we end up stuck with .

i agree hes doing it on purpose

Slightly O/T but I can't believe that Cas are still favourites with Hills to be kicked out. Do the bookies have some inside info that we don't?

So who do suggest we get to replace him?

Please not that old chestnut again. Name me someone who could do a worse job then what Kear is doing now (not what he did last season or seasons before that)

Anyone !!!

Nice bloke decent coach but he has a shelf life at every club he has coached and he has now reached it with us. Time to move on at the end of the season.

I don't want Kear to go, so I have no need. But if you want him out, who would you propose to replace him?

absolutely unbelieveable. what planet are you on?
