I'm still waiting for someone to agree with you. Noble has had his day and the fact that no club have shown any interest in him speaks volumes to me.

| Quote Sebasteeno="Sebasteeno"He still coached Bradford to SL and WCC success, his bosses cheated the salary cap then the next year he got Wigan into the play offs then went to Crusaders who didnt have a team a week before the season started and got them in the play offs. Compare that to Gentles coaching career. Hmmmmm'"
Put another manager in place who has half a clue about football and I am sure when Ferguson retires Man Utd will maintain their position with the resources they have.
Noble took Bradford to the GF and won it, with the best team around at the time. A team which he had not put together. Some of his signings were questionable to say the least.
At Wigan in 2006 he has 225k of extra cap to play with, a distinct advantage. In 2007 he got to wigan to 6th (same as gentle last season) where one player (Trent Barrett) dragged them passed an injury ravaged Hull.
That he has been out of work for so long speaks volumes IMO.

Posturing in the media about contracted players is one thing, actually signing anyone and remaining within the cap is quite another. We'll see how the "Salford Spring" goes.

Gentle has had less than 1 and a third seasons. In that one season he got to the second stages of the play off.
Tell me, with the resources available to him, what were you expecting at this stage?

I don't think Sebasteeno has been the only one querying PG's progress. I think many have had high expectations when the word all along has been that it will take more than one season to get things in place. We made progress last year and I think, despite our poor start, that we will improve further before this season is over.

Yeah - you'd never get a top side promoting an unproven assistant.
Oh - hang on a minute...

Haven't we had this conversation before. Names like Anderson, Wayne, Cummins seem to strike a chord with me. But perhaps I'm just inventing these assistant coaches who've been appointed elsewhere. It surely wouldn't happen at Hull.

Or Shaun Wane, Francis Cummins, Brian Noble, etc. Brian McDermott's only previous gig was his disastrous time at London.
The fact is that every head coach was promoted from assistant at some point, and many of them made a success of it. Even top sides will take a chance if the candidate impresses them. Promoting an assistant isn't an automatic recipe for disaster as some seem to be claiming.

Pretty much like it wasn't last season for us.
