MORE WOE FOR THE TEAM ACCROSS THE LUMP!! : Wed Jun 24, 2009 1:01 pm  

Ive heard from a VERY VERY good source that wigan let brian noble go last night and that Shaun Wane is in charge till the end of the season. also that Kearney WILL be taking over at wigan next year. its been reported in the press that he turned the job down, but, apparently hes been having talks with wigan this week and has been staying in the killhey court hotel. you heard it here first!!!

I wouldn't call that 'woe' - I expect most of them would be chuffed if it happened.

yeah i suppose, but its more unrest after the hock saga!!

IF and I say IF this is true then it's probably a good thing for them. I'd love them to sign him up for another couple of seasons tbh

Well the rumours are in full flow over the hill. I honestly can't see Kearney taking the job, he could easily be the next Roosters coach if he wanted. I think their chairman has been a historic failure for them, DW was much better with Mo, and thats saying something! Its all a bit sad really.

Given the shameful way IL humiliated Noble by enquiring over Kearney I'm surprised they haven't culled him earlier.

Also heard Terry Newton is Wigan bound for next season as well. The creative juices really are flowing

If all the players and half the fans knew Noble wasnt getting retained im sure Noble had an idea IL was talking to possible new coaches.

Why, no seriously why? They have piggy, Mike Mc already and Lulu who is a better hooker than he is a 7. Wigan are imploading! Their chairman is insane.
