The 'We think Michael Maguire is crap' thread

[gpartin]

Every time we get a player or a coach who turns out to be crap there are always some people who claim that they knew all along he would be crap.

This is your opportunity to let us know who you are, so in three years time we can compare this list to the 'I told you so's' to see if they are telling the truth

I think he will be good!

[waterside glens]

me too

[Wigan Watcher]

I’m not saying about his ability but commenting on the very short interview I have seen on the Wigan web site…

I noticed that he did not know our players and did a lot of repeating maybe because he does not know much about our club the players and Super league….

My concern is he has never coached in this country and is coming into a country not knowing his opposition and in fact not knowing his own players, it’s a big ask to be in charge of Wigan, learn about our players, learn about the style played in Super League, and learn about the opposition players. I just hope he does not listen too much to certain people within the club and makes his own judgements about our players.

I truly hope and wish him all the best and truly hope he brings us success in the near future. I for one am willing to back him 100% and not criticise his early game plans or style of play, in fact I’m willing to say if we do not do well in the first few opening games then so be it. I will go on to say the people of Wigan are putting a great burden on his shoulders and rightly so, they deserve success simply because of the passion they instil into the club.

May you have great success for all our sakes

I just think that...well we haven't had sucess with coaches with experience like Nobby and Agent Millward...why not try a new boy?

isnt the idea he brings his own style and let the other clubs worry about us rather than he them ,isntthat why shaun wane is assistant because he knows super leah=gue and our and there players

[woody]

its probably a good thing he does not know many of the players, there reputations and who they are then he can have an outside view on everyone and not be biased towards certain under performing players. starting with a clean slate on everyone. its time for everyone to step up to the plate and prove there worth. also he is a massive believer of players coming through the ranks and playing home grown players which is what we want and need at this club

I think he actually looks remarkably like Brown so hopefully he will also be able to do for us what Nathan has done for the Giants!

doesnt matter if hes not familiar with the club or played over here just take a look at hudders with nathan brown.

Or Justin Morgan at KR, or Potter at Catalans.

His CV reads well, the praise heaped on him by Craig Bellamy as a tactician bodes well. The fact that he was formerly a specialist backs coach, with Wane a forward hints at a good coaching set up.

I hereby withdraw all my recent less than positive comments about the new coach not taking us above 6th next year and apologise for my negativity.
