I’ll be pleasantly surprised if he goes but I think he’ll stay and they will appoint a new assistant to him in the hope that it works and saves their blushes for appointing him in the first place

It’s time for both the acting coach and director of rugby to leave because they have clearly both failed their auditions despite being given way too much time.

I know that people want Applegarth out, and probably agree. Who can come in ? Carter clearly wont pay for anyone. Remember that most of the garbage out there today were not his signings!

Having said that it is MA that keeps picking Lineham, Taufua, Hood etc. despite the fact they have been terrible all season, and then looking surprised when they put in another terrible performance.

Taufua could possibly play Centre or second row, but is never a winger in this world!, the other two are just not SL players, and i wouldnt even want them in the championship.

whilst I agree most of this lot are not his signings, he took the job believing in his own ability in doing something with them, sadly its gone badly wrong. Would anyone who is a fan stay and be remembered for taking your own team down. Well he will the local lad who took the team he supports down. He needs to walk away, he's getting nothing from them.

In his interview he believes he is the right man but for what that is the question. He is going nowhere because it is not his fault because they are not following what he coached. I guess MC wants his club legacy to be a record of humiliation, record defeats and relegation just before he departs probably for the Algarve with the money he can claw back from the clubs sale. This is of course if anyone wants to takeover the on field basket case he is leaving for others to sort out.

Really concerning that there’s no club statement. Aston Villa sacked Gerrard whilst he was travelling on the team bus home after losing to Fulham.

Pretty much relegation confirmed with that gutless performance.
I am genuinely bemused as to why MA wasn't sacked months ago, what the hell is going on at Wakefield Trinity?
Shambles.

Mopsey, I think Mash was recruited to be Carters Patsy. Mash is only a symptom of the ineptitude of his boss

Why would he do that? That doesn't help Carter in any way.

Maybe a Kear or someone would prove me wrong but I can't see any coach making this team into a winning team.

It needs a rebuild as has been said by many. So it depends whether Mash is right for that rather than whether he can make something of these.

Can not believe that any body, can think he is ok to do a rebuild, The football he is coaching is a disgrace .Should be no were near the club

Think it’s fair to say that, barring a miracle, results this weekend have sealed our fate. We need to start planning for the Championship with a new coach not afraid to drop experienced players who aren't cutting it - LIneham, Hood, Taufua to name three - and give youngsters the opportunity to prove themselves. I don’t bag coaches - I don’t know the first thing about coaching - but Applegarth (and several players) have shown they’re not up to it. Start planning for the future now - it’ll be here sooner than we’d like!

I can’t believe anyone at the club watched that today and didn’t find it inept , embarrassing , totally unacceptable ! I would have liked some kind of statement from the club . Minards did after a bad game at Salford last year …. this today and all the season so far is a million times worse .

Never mind the directors , coaches fault these are professional paid players turning in inept performances in a regular basis . Does it really need a coach to instil passion and pride in a players performance,. I can take a loss everyday of the week if the effort was there , but yet again it was sadly lacking . We aren’t talking slick moves here , but the very basics of rugby that we can’t execute. These aren’t wet behind the ears youngsters but paid professionals who shouldn’t need to be coached to tackle and have at least decent ball handling skills and a decent skill set as the very basics , but that is exactly what we have , and it’s embarrassing . 44% completion rate is completely unacceptable at any level of RL let alone a club who supposedly is SL standard

Your right a rebuild us needed thats why resigning jowitt is another crazy retention

I’m living in hope here but could the takeover be close and Carter simply doesn’t want to put his hand in his pocket to pay him off?
