CONFIRMED: James Webster (with Poaching assistant) to the end of the season.

Mixed feelings on this from me. Club legend returns, but not convinced he's up to the job. Please prove me wrong Ginger Maestro.

Wrong coach and wrong week but apart from that 100% correct.

I think he and Webster might have the same blood group, so definitely a fantasy point there, Jake.

It could wind up Goose, though, as we have rebalanced our club's Ginger quota following Welham's departure.

According to JP on Radio Humberside post match at Widnes, it's likely we will get bodies back for next week. He mentioned 5 - Campo, Lunt, Kelly, Horne and Green. He forgot Boudebza.

Wonder what's gonna happen with Poching.... Says Webster is to become assistant to the eventual successful candidate.

New coach must be happy for Webster to steer the ship for a while & probably implement a few things before he arrives. A nod towards Morgan?

Welcome back Webbo.

Whoever Rovers announce for 2017 its now down to Webbo to stave off relegation. Who knows maybe he can steer us into the Super8s. There's pleanty of games left?

100% McNamara according to a source last night (someone who is involved in Skirlaugh and goes to visit and stay with him in Aus)

Good appointment, I didn't know he dad played for Rovers.

What madness has possessed your Chairman to do this? You have decent fans who don't deserve to be treated this way. Feel sorry for you, the one person you don't want when the going gets tough is James Webster

Poching and Hodgson are staying.

Lets not forget - Webbo was a big reason we got into SL and coached us to the NL Cup Final win when others had written us off. Hes got HKR blood in his veins. Wakey didn't have any money to buy players. We will see.

Peacock's statement definately leads you to think team investment is available and more heads are still to roll.

Let's be honest Websters job is to steady the ship, if he keeps you in SL, he has done a good job.

Main job for your club in recruitment and retention, some tough decisions are needed particularly with your overseas players, which you don't get value for money or aren't well balanced enough.

Uninspiring from Rovers. Coaches all stay in place who have overseen the mess so far and Webster comes in for Chester.
Loved Webster as a player. Treated poorly by Rovers at the end. Then how do you describe his tenancy in a similar situation at Wakefield....disaster, catastrophe. Did they manage 3 wins?
Wish him luck but this stinks like the Chester appointment more emotional than sensible.
No point getting McNamara if we're in the championship for 2017.

Such a shame we had to give up our own youth system and identity and decades and decades of bringing through our own players in order to somehow be able to afford to tempt Jason Netherton to coach a "joint" academy...

I seem to recall a fair number of Wakefield fans were glad to see the back of Webbo. Yes he had a tight budget but he must have contributed to their woeful performances.

At least he will have the luxury of a decent 17 over the next few weeks.

Personally I'd have left Poching in charge. He managed to galvanise the squad with his open play approach, but now we have a situation where Webbo has to gain the respect and confidence of the squad, which could go either way and lets hope not the Wakey way!
