| Quote ="Tarquin Fuego"I havent read through all 15 pages of this thread so I may be repeating someone.
Noble won what he won at Bulls when the salary cap was being fiddled to the max by the Bulls . Their pack was amazing but when they trimmed their budget the pack had to leave to fit in the cap.
At Wigan he did nothing and they only stayed up when they broe the cap to sign Fielden or else they may have even gone down and he would have been described as the worst Wigan coach for 40 years.
WHY are we hoping Noble comes in ?????????????? safe pair of hands , that's all.
WE need a McGuire not a Noble , look what McGuire did with NOble's team !!!!!!!!!!!
Please , please no noble appts'"
Noble left Wigan on the verge of winning trophies and McGuire has credited Noble for the work he has done. Not saying Noble is perfect but i'd welcome his appointment.

on the verge isnt the same as winning them though is it
they need to seriously look for a decent coach instead of just appointing the first idiot that comes along for a change,then seriously change the team i`d keep a maximum of 6 players from the the current 1st team and rid the rest

'Idiot'? Noble is far from that and he's a 100 times more accomplished than our current coach. I think most people agree we'd prefer to get 'the next Maguire' but we recognise our board wouldn't be capable of finding/recruiting him so Noble is an obvious and solid choice.
As for the squad I disagree we need another major clear-out although Dowes, Washbrook, Horne, Long and Fitzgibbon will be/ need to be shown the door at the end of this season

Fitzy because he's retiring.
What's Noble done recently? Well last year he put virtually a scratch team together at 2 or 3 weeks notice and miraculously got them to finish only 2 places behind the Hull FC side that Rich Agar had had 2 1/2 years to construct and refine. Noble's achievements at Wigan are being underplayed too, he saved them from relegation and then twice got them within a game of the GF, the second time it was only down to a bounce of a ball that they didn't get there. Now I agree with you that nearly winning something isn't the same as actually winning it, but if so many people are willing to give Agar credit because he once 'nearly' finished 4th then I think Noble deserves far more credit for what he did at Wigan.

Mcguire was quoted in the press as saying a "huge thank you to Nobby who has all but left me a ready to go squad able to hold their own against anyone, leaving me to concentrate on individual skills"

A thing a lot of people say about Noble as well is that he inherited a good team at Bradford. Yes he did, however he kept that team at the top of the pile for a fair few years as well, bringing in new players as others went.

If he comes cheap he would be in with a good shout. Would not want him as coach though. We need an outsider coming in rather than someone who is already there.

I'd prefer that to Webster, but if the board appoint another rookie after Agar I really will despair at their ineptitude.
The whole coaching staff need clearing out in an ideal world, doubt we'll ever see it under this board though.

If we promote in house the situation will remain the same. We need not only a new coach but a clearout of the backroom staff as well.

| One thing for sure if Fitz became coach, we'd see at least 3 current "stars" get the axe.
