Is the job that specialist that you would want to bring in your own? Is there a secret to the Wigan washing powders?

The whispers I'm hearing that Ian Craney is going to have another role. Not sure what though.

Pullen can play in goal if needed? Can Ian Craney? Cook out.

Each kitman has his own secret washing powder/fabric softener recipe, closely guarded.

But the question is: do we go for a bio or non-bio type of guy?

It also gives you a vehicle that can talk to you and train players.

Phil, is it possible that Craney comes in at the under 23 level for us and then the first team coaches are Dyer, Jeffers and Roberts?

We're now accumulating something more like a higher-end Champ backroom setup. We wanted a better structure, now we're getting it.

Most top-level sports have long gone with specific coaches for particular disciplines (e.g. defence, attack) as well as the overall strategists, plus analysts and other personnel with particular skills. Much like the military in the 20th century, they are realising that without all the support staff, the front line troops are not effective.

Agreed. I'm a little confused about a few peoples stance of 'what are we doing with all these coaches?!?!?!'

Any decent set up has more than just an assistant, coach and GK coach. The reason why we've had that is because we've been run like a League 1 club for god knows how long.

That being said, I'm still curious as to who will be assistant.

Entirely. I know nothing of Ian Craney's aspirations or coaching qualifications, so just speculating that that might be the role he's lined-up for.

My sources tell me that our very own Cleaner has had two interviews for the role and is about to have a third. I fear he will want to push the scope of the role too far beyond just cleaning kit however, and that ultimately a less ambitious candidate will get the nod.

Cleaner doesn't strike me as the genocidal type but if he goes that far, then he clearly isn't suited to the job.

Correct and I think we actually owned the coach.

Trevor Kirton-although I had to google it because I could not remember his name exactly.

I think Paul Elmer was a kitman who also doubled up as the coach driver in the early 2000s too.
