There was Rob Burrow doing his scrappy-doo impression on him, that was quite amusing.

Chester been sacked today, to be announced tomorrow morning. Watch this space I guess...

Ridiculous to sack a coach three games in.

I'm not particularly a fan but everyone deserves a bit of time.

No club prospers by chopping and changing the regime.

Coming from a Wildcat fan, who has seen some struggles over the past couple of seasons.

This is the coach that helped get you to Wembley last year, the first time in 30 years.

The last two seasons you may not have got into the play offs, but this has only been decided in the last game or couple of games in the regular season. The competition is so close

Given the injuries you have, and the un-deserved suspension of a key player for 4 games, think this is a little harsh.

The only thing that really cost you on Sunday was Wakefield's defence, which I havent seen them tackle the way they did for several years, especially close to the line

If ( and I await confirmation) Chester has gone then I'm pleased the decision has been made as his position looked untenable at 4.45 on Sunday. Nice bloke I'm sure but we are going backwards at an alarming rate.

If the Rowley rumours are correct then we will go backwards even quicker.

Gutted if he has been sacked. macnamara to replace him if true

I might have heard right last week after all

I'm sure you are

Never been a fan of McNamara, way too B&W for my taste. However, if it was a straight choice between him & Rowley, take SMc any day.

'kin hope not. It would be bad enough having that odious little turd in charge, but to have to cope with your smugness as well? I'd have to ban myself for a week or 2.

It's twitter ter. I'm sceptical that it's a wind up.

If it isn't and he's sacked he's been on post 2 pre seasons. At the start of his tenure we started playing some fantastic rugby. We've nose dived spectacularly since. The players led by the over seas contingent raised themselves for a cup run before being overcome by the final.

Our defence is abysmal and worsening. It's 50% of the game and we're Shi#e at it with no sign of improving.
Injuries haven't helped but they affect every club.

The squad has worsened. The work man like McCarthy replaced with Clarkson ( from average to averager), Welham and Goulding by Salter and Thornley. It takes a special effort to down grade and run down a squad to this extent.

Only Sio and Mantellato have maintained form in the whole squad. That seems down to their professionalism than good coaching.

If the rumours are correct and Chester has gone then hopefully Poching goes too. A complete fresh start is vital for whomever it is that takes over. SL survival and damage limitation has to be the priority for whoever it may be.

Those proposing Rowley are way off the mark IMO, we need an experienced coach. We have never had an experienced coach since we got in to SL. We need someone who can come in and sort this mess out by stamping his authority on this squad.
The only mentions of Rowley are coming from supporters of the champions-elect.Maybe I was right along

If true about Chester, first bit of good news in a long while.

Its true just had Email from club he has been stood down

Aye and poching takes charge against the saints! Unreal
