The question then is, before or after his time at Belle Vue, why has no other Super League club employed him? McNally scrabbled around and ended up with Phil Hassan and nearly the South African bloke who was playing union no-one had heard of.

Maybe because the popular perception is that nothing's any good unless it's SL. Although, credit to John Kear for recognising quality and potential when he sees it.

Sorry but no he wouldn't IMO.
I agree he is knowledgeable and I don't doubt his integrity but it takes more than that to run a full time team. There was nothing wrong with the integrity of the club at the time, maybe his face didn't fit - it happens. But let's not forget it was he who brought his friend Shane McNally over not the club so please explain why he did OK and Roe didn't. From what I heard at the time he lost the dressing room very early on, a certain Mr Wood being a big problem - but that was his job to sort and he didn't.
I think the reality is that Roe got his chance in the top flight 5 years to late and the game had changed to much - we all have a sell by date.
Like so many things in RL or sport in general it's best to move on.

Whether that is true or not, it's certainly the case that he hasn't been given another opportunity at the top level in this country, which like it or not, is Super League. I don't think Peter Fox's involvement at that time helped, but it's water under the bridge. Nearly 10 years on.

Full boxes, new catering that trin profit from, bar promotions, cats bar, advertising, ticket promotions, people walking round selling cold drinks/beers etc.[/size
Sure they dont cost the earth but they are revenue streams. Maximise these to maximise profits. This is the way to a bigger fan base, spending to the cap, business franchise points etc
Cosmetics I would suggest are paint jobs etc that dont in them selves make money.'"

As I remember, money was made available for McNally which hadn't been there for Roey. A major ingredient in any coach's success story I'm sure you'll agree. That may or may not be the only reason why PR didn't last.I know that the influence, or should that be interference, of another former Wakefield coach didn't help.

If you mean Peter Fox then no doubt you're right on that score.
