Noble is a chequebook coach IMO relying on being able to sign good players.
Not the man for us as far as I am concerned.

I don't hold with the name calling aimed at Webster, he's taken his shot at being in the big chair and it hasn't worked out for him. That doesn't mean he'll never make a coach just that here and now isn't his time but if he's big enough to point his analysis at himself and learn from his mistakes then who knows.

I would however lose respect for him if he just hangs on for money and does so at the expense of the future of the club.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



Quote: alegend "Have watched Wakey over 50 years. I am a season ticket holder, but will not go to widnes game and not watch Magic Weekend at all. This is down to a negative coach and a captain getting sin binned, giving Leigh's faster and more skill full half backs the room to do damage. In a few of Leigh's games, there appears to be sendings off or sin bins. Is this clever coaching to get more room for their half backs I wonder?'"


Or alternatively teams now want to be the team to end the winning run and shut us up, and resort to those tactics to put us off our game. Who knows? You are not the first to say that mind although probably the first to use the word clever. The bitter ones just call us thugs.

Agreed.

Whoever comes in will need to wheel and deal and balance a squad on a low budget.
Noble has never had to do this, if fact he has always had big bucks to spend, plus he will want a hefty salary himself !

We aren't that much below the cap now and in his open letter MC states if we stay in SL next year we will be virtually spending up to the full cap. We may have a lower budget than others but we certainly are not as far behind the 8 ball as we have been previously as far as salary cap spend is concerned. Yes the club is operating on a "shoe string" in a number of areas but the poor on the field performances cannot be blamed on a lack of finance as much as could have been said in the past. The amount certain players are paid and the value for money they offer is a different discussion.

You probably have as bad management skills as him! I have been involved in sport all of my life through education and playing etc. Trust me his attitude stinks. If I win the lotto I will pay for his suitcase myself.

I still think that Noble would be very expensive.
Although there is no doubt that we need to change most of our coaching and conditioning staff, Noble would want a hefty wedge (I'd gamble more than double Webster's salary) and his back room staff would probably be a fair uplift (in cash terms) on what we have now and that is before we start on players wages.

Our lower salary cap spend than other teams is one of Websters favourite excuses but previous coaches have achieved much more with much less expenditure. And he can't really blame the Glover & Elston era for inflated contracts either given pretty much all the squad have either been signed or re-signed under Carters more thrifty watch. I think only Kirmond & Collis of the 'big earners' are from the previous regime with Annakin & Trout the others and i doubt they are earning the big bucks. This is largely his squad and Webster really doesn't help himself with some of his comments.

So 24 hours and no word from the club. Is the leech not listening? Any other club would've sacked Webster after the Warrington debacle (Cas did with Millward), never mind ten weeks on.

I have it on good authority that Kay said "hey kirky give me a couple of smacks so I can create some space for Riddy and Brierley"

I am amazed that nothing has happened today, I thought it was a shoe-in that he would be gone one way or another. If it doesn't happen tomorrow then it is another game of ineptitude coming up and more revenue lost for the club no doubt. Strange way to run a business.

Like I said yesterday Carter made a near fatal mistake by tolerating appalling record for so long. We lost a lot of fans in that period that haven't returned, now he's doing the same with this Imbecile. This time its fatal too many fans have gone and I can't see of them coming back now.

The club appears to have once again gone into lock down. If he was going under his own vallition then he would have gone today.

No Morrison or Francis Cummins for me.

Well if the position of head coach becomes available, you can apply for it and see if your positive attitude gets you the job. I doubt his attitude is any worse than the players, all goes hand in hand i'm afraid. icon_sad.gif
