Not happy with this, if it comes off.

Wouldn't mind if he took a mainstream job, but FFS, second division Bulls??

To go from director of rugby at a top flight club, to a coach for a club in the third division would be a huge step backwards for him in my mind. Bradford are a spent force now and will just end up dragging an excellent coach down with them

He might want a head coach role so he'd go with my best wishes, did well on his return last season. I would be pleased if he stayed though.

Up the Trin

The notion that Bulls, in the lowest division, would be looking for a high profile, FT coach (along with some FT players), just goes to show that they haven't learned a thing through their last 3 bankruptcies.

They should build this year - surely they would be one of the favourites for promotion - then ramp it up the following year.

I kmow what people are going to say, but hasn't he just signed up for another year to continue to be Head of RL for us.

Yep thought he did.

From the sounds of things, quite a few candidates have pulled out of wanting the Bulls job that's why they've made a move for JK. Makes you wonder why others have dropped out and why JK would potentially be interested when he's got a seemingly cushy gig here. Maybe he's missing being a full-time Coach again after his latest stint with Wales. Saying that from what we've seen & heard he's been fairly hands on while he's been here.

Losing kear would be losing a playoff spot he is the man. I love jk!!!

Losing kear would be v bad news for us
V much hope this not true

Gutted if this is true. Brilliant partnership with Chester this year

Where has the rumour come from?
I haven't seen anything about this.

Really don't want to lose him.

Hope this is a wind up!

Doesn't look like it.

To be fair, if JK wants to go back into full time management what else can we do? I'm sure no one would suggest we get rid of CC.

I don't think JK owes us anything. The disgusting way some fans turned on him when he had a 10p budget to work with in his last season as head coach says it all.

If he wants another crack at it with the Bulls I wish him all the luck in the world - JK has bought nothing but positives to this club in my opinion and he deserves any success he mat achieve.

Nobody should hold it against him.

I wonder if John got the bug to be head coach again after his stint with Wales at the World Cup. As has been said , he has been nothing but good for this club and I would thank him for his efforts and wish him luck, if he should leave for Bradford.

I think JK has played a big part in Trinity's success on the field last year. It's a real shame that he isn't staying to finish the job off with CC and have a real crack at winning something in 2018.

Quality coach who IF given the backing would turn the Bulls slide around, at his age thought the director of rugby at a top 5 super league club would be ideal for him but obviously not.

Good luck to him..

Totally agree.
JK was held back once by us (Catalans) but rather than hold a grudge he came back in his present role and has been great for us again .
If he's going I wish him all the best he's been a top man for us.

Not sure anyone has said he owes us, or shouldn't be jumping ship.

I think the sentiment is, if you want to get back into frontline coaching, WHY, OH WHY, would it be with Basketcase Bulls?

Would love him even to stay but is the challenge of bringing them back from rock bottom to super league to big to miss for him, also heard from the 2019 season franchise I saw coming back and 14 teams

See if anything gets said at your Forum tonight?

Bulls website says they will be announcing there new head coach and assistant coach tomorrow at 3

May I suggest if you prefer surprises, keep off here for a while!

I wouldn't hold it against him but I hope he stays.

I think he will go he was offered an extension to his contract at 4pm today, but if it's true the Bulls are going to announce a coach tomorrow I think it'll be JK.

He was contracted for next year, so an extension on that I would presume from 2019 onwards. Personally, I really hope he stays and will be gutted if he goes. I think he was a big part of our success last season and I'd have thought he might want to continue the journey.

I hope you're right Shifty I agree with you , but we'll see tomorrow.
