I suppose it was inevitable that he would be one of the bookies favourites, but hopefully not going anywhere
Don't really think its worth getting worried about, pure speculation nothing more for now imo.

I can't see it. It's a poisoned chalice, as soon as they lost a few games he would be sacked. Paper talk I feel.

Don’t see him going to Wigan currently or anywhere else. If he continues to achieve with us it’s likely in the future he’ll go somewhere with a bigger budget.
Would be great to see him lead us a redeveloped Belle Vue

Don't think he'll be tempted! He's a Wakefield bloke and the club is buzzing at the moment.
I wouldn't want to either upsticks and live in Wigan, or travel there. I hope he wouldn't either!

Cheesy Chester is doing a fantastic job at Wakey and they are a club definitely on the up so why would he want to leave for a high pressure job elsewhere like Leeds or Wigan?

I noticed he has a young family as I assume they were his kids with him on Monday. This being the case now is probably not the time especially as Wigan are a risky gig these days. He’s plenty of time to challenge himself where as now he is in the perfect place to create a reputation. Something he would needs at a big club with even bigger egos. Chester knows Wigan better than most so I’m sure he knows the pit falls.

The young family is equally a reason to take the money while you can.
Saying that he has come out and said he's happy where he is.
