Just fished this out from the Guardian website back in February:

"if John Kear can take a thin-looking Wakefield squad anywhere near the play-offs it would rank with the greatest coaching achievements of his long career."


Perhaps we ought to email him

You do have to laugh at journos who think they know enough about the game to get sanctamoneous when all they've ever done is pen the story of a real sportsmans exploits.

I think we should ask for an end of season report, apology, re-write or a pic ...



I was looking for that article a few weeks back along with adrian morleys one.

Cheered me up no-end and these are the guys who are supposably commenting on our game.

has mark chestney made his donation to the brennan rooney fund yet ?? he said he would in the paper if we DIDNT finish bottom i wrote a email to the rugby leaguer asking this and said i was emailing so there would be some stamps left if he wanted to write is knowledge of john kear and the wakefield squad on the back of one but it never got printed

I wondered when this thread would crop up Don, too many "spout offs" who no nothing about the game knocking around.

Stick it up em.

Watson just made himself look an idiot.

As for Harris he is a gimp any way. Don't give monkey what he says. If yo ever watch the super league show he just talks a load of rubbish while he moves his hands about
