Chris Chester really is a nice bloke. Sad but probably an inevitable event from a simple business planning point of view. All the best to his future.

I'll be the first to say it, I'm not sure Poching is the man. Looks for all the world like a deputy, not a sheriff. He comes across as too laid back to me but what the hell do I know and I hope I'm wrong.

On the plus side, much of Pochings career was spent at top teams, Leeds as a player and Warrington as a coach, under a number of top men. So he should at least have the knowledge.

First of all, thanks for the effort Chris and all the best for the future!
I'll second it because surely what is needed is a proven coach?
Willie is a legend at BV, but as a player not coach. Being a good player does not make you a good coach BUT I'm willing to eat my words!
Anyway, whoever it is, the players now need to take a look at themselves because, despite what some poster feel, I don't think some of them have always given 100%.

Brilliant players and legends of clubs do not necessarily make good managers. Obviously no one knows but I don't think he would be my choice long term. Hopefully whatever happens works out

Agree Vasty, we need someone with zero connections to the club and playing squad. Clean slate, new start. Someone with experience of how Saints or Wigan go about their business would be nice.

Well Chester's gone and I wont deny I was in the Chester camp and I'm disappointed but maybe it's the right decision we will see. But I hope the Chester haters don't come on here with more faces than the town hall clock wishing him well when a number of so called supporters made his and his familys life hell on social media. I would like to thank him for his efforts in difficult times and finally I hope some of the personnel at Wakefield take a good luck at themselves.

Get a grip, because supporters weren't happy with performances and the state of the team under Chester we now can`t wish him well? I`ve heard it all now, I`ve not seen one poster cross the line on here with so called "Abuse" of Chester, I may be wrong, but I`ve not see anything... this isn`t Facebook or Twitter.

Chester got himself involved in private messaging fans on social media asking and saying stuff to them, I’ve seen the posts. Chester as had some unbelievable backing off some Wakefield supporters when anyone else would of been hammered and sacked but the trickle became a flood

Correct people on here have not abused him or his family on here, they’ve wanted him in or out and I saw one post on Facebook by a young lad wishing he would die but no death threat or abuse against his family and if that’s the case I’d like to see it
