Without knowing for certain that this is the list I’d go with smith as he has good ties in the modern game and both he and his brother played for us. Maybe they could 1&2 at the club

@richard-richard isn’t mark smith his brother? Maybe I’m mistaken 

I think Duffy would also be good but doubt he will leave Wigan

@mckviking 

Smithy has been seen on TV as Wellen's assistant so I can't se any move there tbh!

I see Denis Betts has been mentioned, but..............

I can well recall the stick, abuse, and worse he received on here, when (I'm trying to be polite here) things weren't at their best at NP, so..........

Would he want to return? I'm far from convinced he would!

John Duffy has (amongst others) coached us, and he could poss do a decent job at your gaff.

Matty Smith has decent history with you, and (in my opinion) could well be more inclined to make a re-appearance than would DB, but..........

If money was no object, and you could bring anyone you desired in, who would it be?

Go on, dream away! 🤣 🤣 🤣 

Spelly.

I don't think there is a coach who could get much out of the current squad without also having a decent amount of money to spend on additional recruitment....if there is someone out there with the combined coaching skills of Vinty Karalius and Wayne Bennett and the ability to spot a star and persuade them to sign for Widnes like Doug Laughton could then I would give them a long contract.

Well, a club run like a circus may as well put another clown in charge of coaching.

it's more likely to be a "let's guess the contenders" rather than anything based remotely on reality

I do rate Alan Kilshaw over at Hunslet and he is able to gather a decent team with few resources
