Hmm. Do the French know what they're doing? Wait until tomorrow and Noble will be looking for a new job. Experience of international and top SL level coaching, he's their man.

Why would someone like Noble take the job though?

There's every possibility that France will get crushed in the four nations comp, which wouldn't look good on anybody's CV.

This is as daft as appointing an untried, inexperienced coach to a Superleague club.

Oh yeh, thats what we did when we gave Jimmy Lowes the job..........

I thought he may have got it, but his record isn't Fantastic, there was the relegation season then the fact that Oldham should have won at least one of those Grand Finals.

Does Bobby even speak a word of french? Should be fun watching his Antics if he's anything like he was at Rochdale though

WTF??

I can see the training sessions:, 'right then lads, at St Maries we 'ave this move, worked a treat against Mayfield it did...'

Fiery Gallic temperament vs Blobby's temperament? Could be interesting.
