I would hate to see Hay take on the Cas job, we would revert back to the Matterson style of play & end up worse off than appointing Orr, even though he is inexperienced, i do want a Cas lad for the job, but at the moment he is at our near neighbors, & i don't think Cas will want to pay for his release

There's a lot to challenge in your post, tigertot.

Best cas forward of his generation is a viewpoint i have never heard uttered, in regard to Hay.



Went astray at Cas? well the expiry of his contract definitely did, as he was allowed to sign for sheffield without receiving a renewed deal.







Glossing over your opinion of him at Leeds, where he managed to win a challenge cup medal and play for GB and England in the World cup, people are rarely what they seem, unless you have some regular interaction with them. Amongst the people, who are acquaintances of both guys, few would agree with your assessment of their personality types.





However, I'm only interested in the best coach for Cas at this point in time..



Give Aston a try for me, he's waited all his life for this and he would clear some of the deadwood out, that's for sure.

Isn't Aston both owner and coach of Sheffield? Coach aside would he have time to coach Cas and be owner of the Eagles? Or more to the point would he want it? He seems a pretty big fish in a small pond at the moment.

You seem to have misread my post, whether deliberately I have no idea. I said potentially. I watched his progression through the A team, he could fit in on the wing when required such was his pace. He reminded in some ways of Andy Timson, another fantastic prospect who, for reasons, didn't achieve his potential.







I didn't say he went astray. Something went wrong, I heard rumours about contracts at the time.







I live & work in Leeds. They don't speak that highly of him. He was in the right place at the right time IMO.







I have no idea, I have never met him. I am giving my opinion as an observer. Powell I have met in all the situations I stated.







I couldn't agree more on both points.

It states on the super league website that hull FC are not willing to comment on a rumour that andy hay handed in his notice last week. This sounds about right for cas probably the cheapest pay packet out of all 10 people who applied for the job. However andy grew up in cas and has black and amber in his blood so what he may lack in experience he could make up for in passion for the club.

Watch this space.

No chance of any of the top coaches in the Championship wanting the job but I think someone like Bobbie Goulding or even Matt Calland could be worth a punt.
