Casn't believe some people are prepared to accept Harris as assistant even if none of the above is correct.

He has done nothing in coaching to warrant such as job as assistant at Wigan. Coaching Wales is part time and he has hardly been at at for any length of time.

Getting the short straw by having the coaching job of the Crusaders as your first head coaching job does not qualify you to be a Wigan coach. We are not a charity.

He failed to make any difference to the Crusaders plight and as he took the job on he should be judged on how he did. If it was a lost cause he should never have taken it on in the first place. So its his own fault if his coaching CV looks poor because he failed to make an impact there.

This will be the first time any club has ever appointed a coach who failed in his job as a coach!

As Highland Convert points out, the options are many and I.L. will announce HIS choice of management when he sees fit and like it or lump it, we'll all have to agree with it.
Whenever I see posts like this these days I am reminded of the classic comedy series "The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin" in which Regi's boss "CJ" had the catch phrase

"I didn't get where I am today by ..."

Is IL the new CJ? :doz:

Where from the stands???

I'll be home & away next season & be watching the U20's & U18s as well!!

The only game I will miss is the Magic weekend if they insist on it being the first game of the season!!!

I may go then even if I disapprove of it :( Just a money making exercise for the RFL cronies IMO!!

Should just move the CC final back to either first or last bank holiday in May. Too close to the GF.

Very much Josie but at least it will be in a sensible location and not mean long journeys / overnight stays and empty stadia.

I thought they had signed for a few years at the millenium? Will be warmer than last year at Cardiff though if right :)

I made this comment a while back. I think I said "I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole" or words to that effect.
I'm absolutely baffled if this is true i.e. Yistin being No 2. I despair for the future especially when Joel (and possibly Sam) could be leaving.
I hate Mondays!!!!
