| Here's the link because the one on the site seems to play an old interview with Wane.

I literally laughed out loud when i heard him say that.
Him and Wane sound like they're going to flog them
If any of them don't like it they should be left out of the side until they toe the line.
I liked Wane saying it'll be tough but fun............exactly what it should be.

| Really impressed with the way he came across during that interview.
Can't wait for the pre-season friendlies to see how much difference his methods have made.
Hats off to you Mr Lenagan. Please continue to take advice from LovesToSpooge's sig.

| He mentions having Wigan people around him on the coaching staff as being very important and mentions the names of Wane, Deacon and Bitcom but nothing about Rads.
I take it Rads will be staying on but in what role?

I think it was just a case of who came to mind in the interview.
I'm sure Rads will be a part of the team

Hope so.
He's a top bloke and it'd be great of he coached the fullbacks and outside backs at the club.
Get him bringing the water and messages on for the first team. It'd give the crowd a lift seeing rads running about the place.

You are, of course, entitled to your opinion but you're wrong Noble was given 3+ years and still didn't build a consistent team. All the players in that squad were signed or re-signed by him. He'd had his time.
Maguire wouldn't have left one of the best clubs in Australia to come and be an assistant in SL. It makes no sense, particularly when he's being touted for head coaches positions over there.

Personally it's not about getting to a final in his first year, I'd just like to see some committed, consistent RL and a top 4 finish. If we do that, who knows what could happen.
Oh, and beating Warrington at your place would be nice too

| I have nothing but pure excitment and optimism for next season.
I can’t wait to see the effect he has on players who need an extra bit of confidence or tough love i.e Gleeson & Roberts =confidence-Fielden, Feka, Pryce & Piggy= tough love. I want to see him and Wane build some of the squad and have them believing in the undbouted talent they have. In Gleeson & Fielden we could have the best centre and prop in the league!!
I also can’t wait to see how he develops our talented under 24’s Tommy, Sam, Joel, Prescott, Mcilorum, Ainscough & Hansen. These guys are the future of our great club and i hope working with a guy that has nutured players like Slater & Inglis will help them develop as well.
There are so many reasons 2 get excited!!

lets wait and see if hes up to it and let the results do the talking, and not him.

Lenagan will give him time especially given he's his own choice.
As for expectations from the fans I think everybody just wants to see a change in terms of commitment. The Wigan public can handle losing(we've got used to it) but what they can't handle is losing limply with the players looking like they couldn't give a to*s.
I want to see a totally committed team every week and i want to see a team that looks like it's putting in the hard yards on the training field. If that still isn't good enough because the other sides have been better then fair enough.
Shaun Wane has said he believes they can get 20% more out of alot of our current players......................i think they can get even more then that out of a couple.
Just look at the change in attitude Tony Smith brought about at Wire in such a short space of time! The trophy was a bonus whereas the preformences they started to get out of the likes of King, Monaghan, Briers etc showed he'd got a commitment from them to improve and that he'd given them confidence.

Noble failed to significantly improve the on field performances over 3 and a half years, in fact I would say we never improved and never consistently matched the form we showed once he took over.
I would not have Brian Noble anywhere near this Wigan squad, for several reasons firstly the performance aspect of things which has not been good enough, and secondly for his recruitment policy of supporting coaches, which was and is being shown up now as totally inadequate. I also think many players were not "coached" and showed little improvement over his time in charge, simply lacked flexibility.
I hope he has learned a thing or 2 from his time at Wigan with regard to this side of things or his time at Celtic could be short lived which would surely end his career as a top flight coach.

I think we all came to are own conclusions on that one.
After listening to him you can certainly see why he wants so many trial games, he obviously wants to give everyone a fair crack of the whip and that ties in with not handing out squad numbers till later on making players earn the right for a 1 to 13 shirt.
You can tell as well that one of his main priority and coaching philosophy is the focus on fitness, which should stand us in good stead. Three sessions a day five days a week should reap plenty of rewards later in the season.
