      Released by Bolton as part of the coaching team under Evatt. Worth considering bringing in to our backroom ? wigan lad through and through

        He was assistant manager at Bolton he might be past doing coaching at 54 and I’d guess a lower league managers role would be more suitable or another assisting role.
        It’s 34 years since he left Latics that’s a tsunami of water under the bridge

          I thought he had worked as a coach at the academy in more recent years, like in the last 15 or 20 years?

          Id stay well clear now.

          We have a real tendency to look backwards at Latics and employ people with links all the time. Sometimes a new broom and outlook is the way to go, some times it isn’t.

            He did work coaching but he eventually moved up to assistant manager at Bolton and duely left last week.

            Na, not for me we’ve 100’s upon 100’s of ex players who are in and around the coaching scene who’d appeal over him.
            Filling the coaching role is probably one of the hardest roles at a club. They have to gel the players and put in sessions that improve the team but not only that, the players but into it and enjoy the sessions.
            I’m for the right man for the right job as long as he’s not from Bolton lol
