I saw Daryl Powell pulling off the M6 this evening. Is he signing?

Nah, just giving Paul Anderson a lift.

I honestly don’t get the suggestions for Betts. Is there a more consistently average coach in SL?
Won’t be bringing back any of the stay-awayers anyway

"Compliant" how? Are you intimating that an appointment like Winder would just be the monkey to IL's organ grinder and would coach the team according to IL's dictates and not be his own man?

I am not saying he would coach it how IL dictates but more to do with the squad. That is if players were leaving he'd have to accept it and more to the point would accept the loss of top players like Bateman. I don't think a senior coach from outside the club would be keen on that scenario and might (for example) want IL to hold players to contracts whereas a more junior coach might feel he can't push the issue.

More nonsense, IL is the best thing to happen to Wigan in a long time, i trust him to get things sorted just like he did when he took over from the shambles.

Well we will see, won't we. Why you think the sun shines out of IL's bum I don't know. Whether you are in favour or not plenty of fans do not support him for taking games to London and Oz. He stuck with Noble too long and came up with the idiotic policy of letting players leave and then rushed to re-sign them (just to vindicate his policy IMO) and so far none of the ones returning have been worth it. Player recruitment in general has been hit and miss so while players like Bateman and Green have been signed there have been flops like Pettybourne, Pryce, Tauati, the great Andy Powell (remember him!) and Sarge. He made a master stroke of signing Madge and if he pulls of a similar feat again, then great but if he does appoint Winder I doubt many will be enthusiastic.
