New Cas coach : Sun May 05, 2013 7:45 am  

Just seen a tweet from League Express columnist Gareth Walker that Daryl Powell WILL be Castleford's new coach. Going to be a difficult season for him, I think. Wonder what made him decide to leave the club where he's had most success at?

Will be announced after Batley match. I'll miss his smiling happy face. I was going to comment on the fact that at least Castleford won't have the opportunity of choking but when the new league format comes into play they may have to attend a relegation type final. At least t-shirt printers in Castleford will be rubbing their hands.

On the outside the club gives out all the right messages but all is not sweetness and light behind closed doors.

I think that's wishful thinking GFB. They have been an outstanding club over the last three years; compared to where they were in the prevailing years.

This seems to follow a certain "investor" around doesn't it?

Powell ! A refreshing, smiling face to brighten up wheldon road. How many players is he going to pinch from fev, they all play with the right attitude for sl

Interesting, at the present time you'd have thought Fev would be a better place to be than Cas.
We shall see.

Sheridan to take over at Fev?

If this is true and Powell does go to Cas then Fev are losing a superb coach in my view. All joking and banter aside you have got to give him a lot of credit for what he has done at Fev regardless of our rivalry with them and obviously other issues. He has taken them to the next level from where they were in terms of performance etc. Good luck to him even if he doesnt like us i say!
