Not sure if any of those 3 are the right choices. Noble would be the best choice but he's used to working with a decent sized budget.

I'd choose the best candidate. The thing is, we don't know who has applied and who hasn't. This is all hearsay from the media, who let's face it, have been speculating about Morgan and Noble for months.



Adrian Vowles anyone?

I'd love to see Vowles back at Cas. However, I wouldn't want him to ruin his reputation and stature like Steady did

In order of preference!



1) John Kear....Unlike many, I'd happily give him the chance (1 to 2 years) and then judge him afterwards. Most seem to be happy to judge him before giving him a chance at Cas....not Wakey....judge him at Cas!

2) Brian Noble, yes he would be welcome at the Jungle.

3) Justin Morgan.....can come accross as a bit of a 'wide boy' for me, so I'm not too sure.

4) Andy Hay. I never really rated him as a player, I'd have to consult the players and other staff to see what they make of him.

How about a NZ born ex-loiner coach who just happens to have worked with the present Tigers coach recently.

2 + 2 = 5 anyone???





Delboy66(aye of the Tigers fanzine)

I think theres a lot going for Noble as his past record is excellent.



However, I get the impression he's waiting on a call from Australia for a crack at the NRL. I'd be worried about him leaving after 1 season (a la Crusaders).



It's a shame for you guys that Matterson is going. I think he's done a cracking job... is there no chance of you making him change his mind like Huddersfield did with Brown???

I think many Cas fans believe it is time for change. There is no doubt that Matterson has left a lasting legacy in some ways and the BoD have to be applauded for that too. Their investment into the youth system is paying dividends and that can only benefit CTRLFC in the long run.



Any coach coming in though will have to work to that current remit of focusing on youth, small number of overseas players and a tight budget until the new stadium is built.

Andy Hay's got his name in the hat as well fwiw

So has Daniel Anderson judging by the rumours.

Millward,Dave Woods and Lord Lucan all mentioned as applying for the job







Delboy66(aye of the tigers fanzine)

So if the rumours are to be believed, names currently in the hat are



Noble

Morgan

Kear

Millward

Gentle

Hay

Anderson



Jeez it will be tough if all those really are there

You missed Dave Woods and Lord Lucan.
