Reading between the lines I think Clan is saying Neil Kelly's interested and would want the job'"
Absolutely right. I haven't heard a muffle from the club, but then I haven't bothered them trivial stuff about the stadium so far this week. It cant be easy for anyone, but I hope it resolves itself quickly.
I kind of got that impression about Neil, but wasn't sure.

| Has a press conference been called yet, or will it just be an announcement on twitter/facebook etc??
If he could be persuaded, id want Glen Morrison. His Mrs could sort out the cheerleaders as well. Kill 2 birds and all that

| Neil Kelly's a great shout - best get in quick though, or Shudds will snap him up, like they have the other 2 brothers; it's a shame that Huddersfield value our local talent so much more highly than we do...

| Not thought about Neil, but really makes sense!
Anyone know MC well enough to 'sow seeds'?
In other words someone with respected RL knowledge that the chairman admits he does not have.

I look at how Neil transformed Widnes when taking over from David Hulme, he knows how to get an under performing team to reach its potential. He is a play off knockout specialist who's reached 3 Grand Finals with unfancied teams, the kind of knowledge we will need come the Middle 8s at the end of the season.
He's a Wakefield man, a former Wakefield player.
He is one of the highest qualified RL and RU Coaches there is and has recently worked at the RUWC and with other International RU teams.
He's recently returned to Wakefield and is available.

When I think of your brother coaching, I remember him kicking a holdall during a half-time roasting, captured on camera. That is exactly what we need, not standing there with a clipboard. As has been said, we haven't got a bad squad, but they are unable to stop any side that gets the wind in their sales. You can see the defeat in the players' eyes. The second half against Leigh was just hard to credit. Very well done to Leigh, they got a roasting and responded. We were nothing short of disgraceful.
I would resist the notion of Poching. What has been shown with Webster is that some people are just meant to be assistants, not head coaches. Given that Willie Poching seems to be content to be an assistant, I would steer clear.
Morrison would be good, and I reckon a performing lower league coach would relish the challenge. If he succeeds, he knows he could end up with a decent top flight reputation along the lines of Daryl Powell.

Apparently not. “It was the easiest half-time speech I’ve ever had to give,” Rowley said

Quote ="The Clan"
The club certainly needs some fresh ideas.
A new coach that understands the constraints that will come with working at Wakefield yet has the experience to work with senior players. There aren't that many available and as someone has pointed out its their availability that could be the key to who we get.
Neil Kelly is Highly qualified at both Rugby codes with excellent contacts in both, experience of winning 2 Grand Finals, both massively against the odds. Former international Coach, Championship and Super League Coach of the year.
Most importantly, understands the man management of top flight players.
When it comes to identifying and negotiating with new players he's very experienced.
Been involved as a Coach all over the World right up to now.

Certainly someone worth speaking to if you're Michael Carter and Chris Brereton
