Obvs lost the dressing room. Tough on FC given the events of the past year but even in those circumstances we should be playing better than we are.

Feel a bit sorry for Cummins - but I realise it had to be done....

Can see an opening for Mr. Noble here for the rest of the season and then an opportunity for him to rebuild getting us back into SL next season.

Ditto, Cummins had a horrendous introduction to coaching BUT...... he has failed to motivate the team. Cas are a great example, on paper there's not a massive difference in squad (Clark and Carney apart), but they play as a team and fight for each other. Maybe like Powell, FC will come back stronger in future years but it would have killed the club to keep him as coach unti; next season

Re: cummins and st hilaire gone. : Mon Jun 16, 2014 2:25 pm  
Who next?

Glenn Morrison would have been worth a shot IMO, but he's just signed a new deal with Dewsbury last week.

A lot seem to want John Kear, but he's struggling at Batley this year. He's had some success there with a squad that he inherited, but this year most of those lads left and he's recruited poorly, with some Batley fans calling for his head.

A good wildcard for me is Willy Poching. He's leaving Warrington at the end of the year anyway, lives locally, and has a very good reputation within the game.

Or, my choice: Nobby! Knows the place inside out, understands the fans, has obvious passion for the club! A known motivator, and with good knowledge of the Championship too having covered it on Premier Sports for a good while.

The question is: Who wants the job?!

I'd like to wish good luck to Franny. I think there's a good coach in there. Maybe another stint as an assistant at a top club could bring the best out in him.

I heard a rumour last week that brian noble was asked to "over look things" I guess now he might be taking over till the end of the season if he can sort out his loose ends at salford !

It needs someone with bags of experience... Noble for me.

Morrison, Pouching and other mentions I don't think would be better FC to be honest.

Can't see past Noble personally. Knows club inside out and would get a lot of fans back onside.
