He has been their a good time and still does not appear to have turned them into true contenders. This season lucky win over London, beat a poor Northern and lost the other four. Does not sound like GF form. If the rumours are correct does not get on with the owner, and again if rumours are to be believed their is soon to be a vacancey at his old beloved Northern. Mind you they are broke and would he want to go.

Worst Wigan performance at Leeds under Noble by a long way.

Don't see them parting company though.

I don't particularly like the way Noble's teams play, but he does have a habit of getting them playing well later in the season. When he arrived, Wigan were in line for relegation and they did cheat to stay up, but the last 2 season's they have been 1 game from the GF. Hardly worthy of the sack IMO.

Can't see it myself - Leeds vs Hull this year

I can't see why they'd sack him at this stage. He's started badly with teams before, even winning a grand final from a very poor start. However if there are issues between him and the Chairman, then history in any sport will indicate it ain't going to work. Who would they bring in to replace him?

.... if there was relegation still around this season they'd be in line for it again on that showing.

Nice singer, mind.
