He was quite successful at championship level with Fev though.

Fair point, let's keep Mash.

FFS!

Let’s hope not eh

Didn't say that but let's not Knight Powell just yet. He's had some success but he's also failed with a lot more money than he'll have with us.

He'll certainly have a game plan that Gale can work with.

Simple equation; sign up mash = Far less than 3000 crowd figures.

No, I know you didn't.

Chuff me, I know the written word can be interpreted in many different ways, but we don't half seem to have lost our humour.

Powell is interesting... really liked him as a player but seemed to turn into a bit of a pratt as a coach... that said he has been a bit of a mixed bag with some success and some failure

Powell’s success with Castleford speaks for itself , the man’s a cracking coach and if he does end up coaching us I’m more than happy to have him onboard . Couldn’t give a monkeys what his attitude is like as long as he cracks the whip and turn our misfits into a fighting force and gets rid of that holiday camp culture that has hung over the club for far too long . For far too long we’ve accepted mediocracy at every level within the club and skirted disaster on numerous occasions culmination in our inevitable demise from the super league this season . I don’t mind doing my bit for the club and all I ask in return is that the club do their bit, and bring that pride and passion back into our games

If it is powell i`ve heard he is very proffesional with very high standards, if so lets hope he`s allowed the chance to go through the place like a dose of salts. Get his own staff not lumbered with mash, as i'm sure after the warrington gig he has a point he'd like to prove.

Didn’t Willie steam in with some high standards and the players ran off to Minards to complain it was too hard?
