In what way has he got vast experience in rugby league

The problem with noble for me is that I don't believe he could make us GF winners, however he would improve us and that would see the board giving him a long term deal. We'd be in the mix but never genuine contenders IMO. It would be a hell of a lot better than what we have but still not what we all really want. You also have to question why he was allowed to leave wigan and crusaders (admittedly crusaders was possibly financial)

I agree about where we'd probably end up under Noble but I'd happily take it and cross that bridge when we came to it TBH. Getting the 'next Maguire' is a cheap phrase, but if Jim and Kaff had it about them to go over to Oz and get a Price or a Dymock I'd definitely be up for that over Nobby. But they don't have it in them, so that leaves him as by far the best option.

Think it's fair to say him leaving Crusaders was definitely financial. Wigan I'm happy to put down to the new owner's prerogative to get his own man in, although obviously it's worked out to their benefit.

I would get noble for 2 1/2 years in that he would get recruitment right and put us in a good place IMO.

But all this Noble chatter is irrelevant, I do not believe for a minute he would want to step foot anywhere near the place. Whatever he is, he is no mannequin

As much as I know you love your 80's films, I think the word you're looking for is "marionette".

I would love Edwards, Noble, or almost anyone really. Whilst I don't put 100% blame at Agar's doorstep, I think that change is needed to be a catalyst - any change! I'd be happy to see either a change of ownership, a change of coach, or a complete squad overhaul. It really matters not where the blame lies right now, and we're bound to pick out individuals to be scapegoats, like we have the last 4 seasons, but we will only go backwards on the field if we blithely carry on regardless!

He does look like a thunderbird puppet tho'.
