Millward it is.
Cant reveal my source.
You tried for him before he left for Aus, will ignite your club and I am jealous.



Sorry but I'm still laughing at what Millward did to the Pies when he was coach there.....

3 options for Widnes

1 stick with Stankevitch until the Super league licences come round again
2 Paul Cullen
3 Jon sharp

karl Harrison Dave woods etc and even Millward would be a big no no

I think its funny that a few narrow minded fans dont want Cullen because of his Warrington links...i'm sure a few Wigan fans were the same when Mike Gregory was appointed coach, until he got them to a Grand final of course...

I don't think it's his warrington links at all. It isn't with me. I'm just not sure he can make us a winning team. He had a massive budget at warrington and underachieved year on year.

I also think its because Widnes fans think they are getting a Warrington Reject if you like....

I believe as do many other normal Warrington Rugby fans do that Cullen just lacked that little bit of something to get us to a final and win something...we were not far of I suppose in the end we just got sick of being "dark horses" again..

When Wire fans wanted Cullen replaced it was for the likes of Tony Smith Craig Bellamy Steve Foulkes and that calibre of coach No one wanted Jon Sharp, Karl Harrison, or Dave woods, the odd motion for John Kear was often Muted but the fans first Choice Was Tony Smith we were even promised a world class coach

we got Jimmy Lowes ....!!!

be very careful when dismissing perfectly reasonable coaches.

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.


Dave Woods? Never short of entertainment that's for sure!
