About time, shame it took so long in coming. So is Websters deal just until the end of the season or longer term? Is it a caretaker deal? Is he effectively on trial? Are we looking for a new assistant to help him? I find it strange that no length of agreement was mentioned, it can only lead to further unrest and speculation. Is this a short-term appoinment or long-term?

Personally at this moment I am more pleased RA has stood down to take in who will take the head coach role. Knowing how he dug in at Ull I couldn't see this
Fair play it him for doing the honourable thing and let's get behind the Club

Richard is a proven quality coach and a good man.

He's been hounded out by a set of supporters with delusions of grandeur.

Remember you are Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, not a Wigan or a St Helens.

From the link in 1st post, guess this covers that

"All parties felt that with a new coach being decided upon and the club entering the recruitment period, it would be hard to continue in the role, especially with the players knowing I was going. [sizeIt would also allow James to start putting into place his plans for next season[/size."

Thanks, we'll try to remember our place

I'm not sure about the timing of Agar going if it'd be planned for weeks maybe the poor display against Bradford accelerated it? Either way I'm pleased he's gone and it was needed IMHO, the changes with pivots/positions etc seemed chaotic.

Good luck to Agar and Warrington but for me he is a good assistant SL coach.

My family will now be going to the London game with some optimism hoping that those wearing the red,white and blue will play with defensive and offensive structure, with some hard running, quicker defensive line speed and pride in the shirt they are wearing. Good luck to Webster.

Hallelujah! Trust me to miss the news after being on nearly all day. Onwards and upwards now, good luck to Webster, come on Trinity let's have that fire back in the belly!

Turns out what I posted yesterday that someone said on Facebook was true. There's a first!!!!

Everyone has a shelf life, unfortunately for Agar his was up. He's a nice guy, and he works tremendously hard but sometimes that isn't enough. This season has been a disaster, some of it was his fault, some was out of his hands and the players must share the blame too. It was clear a change was needed for the team performances to improve and I respect Agar for stepping down.

Best of luck to Webster and hopefully it'll inspire a reaction from the players and getting them playing with pride for the team and themselves, desire, passion and hunger!

When Millward was sacked, Danny Orr took over from his assistant role and there was a clear difference in the team. Hopefully it works the same for you.

All I can see regarding Davide Longo is that MC is insinuating that Davide is the guy behind SirRichardAgar on Twitter.

Perhaps to be taken with a pinch of salt, but if even a small part of that is true I'm glad he's gone.

Youl have to remind me Brucie where has he shown he's a quality coach not here and not at hull

If mr webster is looking for a assistant what about John Bastion released by our neighbours fev

Your on about another who talks a good game
