That would concern me. If, for instance, he was given a caretaker-coach role while we were waiting for someone else to divest himself of his current job, it could backfire badly. If Wane does a good job ... what do we do: cancel the new guy's contract and back Wane (which, if the new guy was going to be someone special, would be a mistake IMO), or push Wane back into his former role, which might pee him off and send him elsewhere.

Surely he'd take the risk though.

As a Wiganer if you got offered the top job at the club you know that it's a once in a lifetime opportunity and to turn it down would be madness imo.

I'd rather have a go and fail then sit back in 20 years and think 'what if'.

Wane has other considerations such as a business away from the sport as I understand it, so it would not be the end of the world for him personally if he did make a hash of it, not that i am saying he would by the way.

Would it not be wise to move for chris thorman can cover full back and stand off quite well.

If we could train a chimp to cover full back & stand off, i'd rather do that than take Thorman on this year's form.

Please no, he is one of the worst players in the league imo

Shaun Wane may be an asst to a head coach still to be named.
I could very well see him being an asst to Lam!
At the moment he's not an asst but p/t reserve coach. From that to head man of the first team is one heck of a jump for SW and a massive leap of faith by IL if it's all true.

I dont think Lam will be involved.

If Wane is to get it, we need to appoint an assistant with experience.

It would be the lowest point in the clubs history if we signed Thorman.

NO IT WOULD NOT BE A WISE MOVE!!

What are you smoking!!?
