Can't see Duffy leaving Wigan tbh, nor Matty Smith leaving Saints with a good women's team.

Hard to answer that question without a list of the applicants tbh! I think James Ford would be a decent shout but I’ve no idea if he is either interested or on the club’s radar.

I'd be surprised if he were interested, it's only three months since he joined Fev as Director of Rugby, if Fev get promoted he'll have prime responsibility for the SL recruitment process and will fill the same role that Chester does at Leigh, if not it's doubtful Long will survive as head coach at Fev and Ford will be in prime position to replace him.

Possibly mate. If the mo ey is better I am sure they would move.

Personally I would like to see Betts back. The club at the time promised a year on year progression for the first three years that we were allowed to settle in to SL and we did fulfil that part. The year we were top we played some wonderful rugby and scored some great tries However “Rules Rule” ensured we spent more on Directors pay than players. If you ever get the chance listen to the Kevin Brown podcast with James and hear the things that was promised you can get an idea of how money was promised and then refused, no wonder we were bad.

Thank you mate. Had problems logging in and I hope we can kick on further with more good performances. 👍 These rumours are annoying. 😂

Does Littler not also teach? So if we are going for a part time coach why not just stick with Belshaw who seems to have got the players performing?

I think the Betts ship has sailed, he should have gone at the end of 2017 (although in the previous 3 years he had done well).

Oldham are behind Dewsbury, Hunslet, Workington and Doncaster. They are above Crusaders, Rochdale, Hurricanes, Cornwall and London Skolars. How can you get a job at Widnes, at Championship level still one of the biggest clubs in the league based on that performance plus time at Swinton.

Just watching Sky, I think if Hull win tonight we could offer Ian Watson a job as I don't think he has much time left at Huddersfield. 

I would rather give the job to an untested but high profile former player like Matty Smith or Kevin Brown than a coach that is mid table League 1.

Tbh to swap our managing/coaching set up for a failed Oldham package could be the kiss of death.

Betts has to a better option as coach for a start, I doubt that Watson would be keen to drop to Championship.

So it appears that Stuart Littler will be the next one in the hot seat. I don't know enough about him to form an educated opinion and for me, that is the problem. 

.........

 

As requested by alanC and Dan1, where does your information come from?

 

No answer - presume you made it up in an attempt to seem important and start a rumour. Chiidish!

Looking at today's scores, Daryl Powell could be looking for a job soon.

Not liking to add to unsubstantiated rumours, as that is purely what they are, but i did read that Ian Watson's future could be dependant on having a good season end.
