fair enough matey, entitles to your view, however if you look at the transformation at Blackpool in the time he's been there, incredible. OK he hasn't got a tremendous squad, and they will win a handful of games at best, but a couple of years ago the thought of them winning at all was unthinkable.

So a rookie coach with a couple of wins at Blackpool is the criteria we are looking at????

I see where your coming from mate but i think we need to opt for a little more experience, someone perhaps who has already won at this level and will gain the players respect. We also need a coach who will excite the fans.

I'd say he was Paul Cullen but he didn't make up any words in his post.

Or so say the Daily Post

www.liverpooldailypost.co.uk/spo ... -22943082/

Not sure but I suspect this is more lazy journalism with the story mostly coming from messageboards.

I would not be unhappy with this appointment if it happened. He certainly had Warrington throwing the ball around.

The past is the past...

Correct, he's a proven super league coach who likes expansive rugby, did a very good job for Haven and progressed Warrington well before in many peoples eyes taking them as far as he could.


A good option for the job IMO, i dont care if he's a wire, if he wants to do it and is fully commited then he gets my vote.

Agreed. If hes fully commited, he'll go very well, regardless of whether hes a wire icon_wink.gif

What has he proven?. If you give him a full salary cap and sign top players he serially under performs?

His Tv analysis is just waffle + cliches.

I like Widnes and would like to see you in SL next time round. There are many coaches better than Cullen.

What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.” [i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99] [b:24qn1m99]Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY![/b:24qn1m99]:24307.jpg

Agreed.

That story is just based on reading message boards.
