Plot thickens..

Post by covid tiger » 16 Apr 2021, 09:22

According to the Manchester evening news Warrington wolves CEO has confirmed Daryl Powell is sole in charge of recruitment for 2022 and Daryl is already planning his squad.. :shock: and that he (CEO) won't be handling current contract negotiations.

Is this not a conflict of interest seriously? I like Daryl but I am getting concerned? His he not doing Warrington work already on the Cas payroll?

Tim Sheens agreed to become Hull kr coach whilst still serving as Salford head coach but was forced to stand down due to internal conflicts later coming to light...

That line about he's already planning next seasons squad is an absolute joke. Daryl needs to remember who's paying his wages. This is unfortunately the mess many people predicted with this situation.

Like I've said for months, Powell won't be at Cas all this season.

My concern has always been that there is the potential for Powell to persuade our current players not to sign a new contract so that Warrington can make them an offer once the anti-tampering deadline has passed.
I hope he has a bit more professionalism and integrity, but it is certainly a possibility.

There certainly is a conflict of interest if Cas and Warrington both approach the same players for 2022 and Powell knows how much we have offered them, so he can pitch Warrington's offer slightly higher.

I'm uncomfortable with our head coach recruiting for another team. My view would be that if Warrington want him to work for them now so he can plan for the 2022 season, they need to offer us a fee for his services and he can go now.

We can't have a situation where our head coach is actively working for one of our rivals.

You’ve said a lot of things old boy. I particularly like the “McDermott has the job” posts that you repeated yet look like being wrong.

Proffessionalism and integrity??? does that include lying about his new job two days before Wire confirmed it?

DP has lost a lot of respect from myself and possibly a few more and we have to realise he can not be working in Cas's best interest at the moment.

The BOD should have held him to his existing contract, not shorten it so he can jump ship

Every year it seems the annual pecker up gets more and more surreal

In fairness, it's pretty normal not to disclose information about movements between clubs (for both players and coaches) until the club release it.
What is not normal is for one club's head coach to be actively working for a rival club. If this is what is happening, he needs to go now.
It was a very strange decision to shorten his contract and meant Warrington (or any other club) could take him for nothing at the end of 2021, when they would have needed to pay a fee otherwise.

DP could have dodged the question instead of lying outright, It makes me think what else is he lying about

He said he hadn't signed. Technically, that could have been true. I don't have an issue with it - it's the norm for players and staff to deny anything until it is announced by the club.

What is not the norm, and what I have an issue with, is if Powell is actively working for Warrington during 2021.

If so, 2 wages, not bad going.

If Daryl is working with dire, spelling mistake no "mistake", isn't he in breach of his cas contract?

I appreciate some, if not all, reports are concerning but you have no idea what you're walking away from yet. Even if the comments are true, Cas could still go on and win the CC or GF but either way, the hopes and dreams dreams that got you though those dark days remain the same.

Bloody drama Queen. Times have been much worse before. Even as recently as 2013 when we were (apparently) 15 minutes away from administration was a lot worse than this.

Win tonight and we could go top on points difference
We’re in the quarter finals of the cup with a favourable draw

Oh for the days of home 4-72 hammerings and players like Ryan Clayton, Steve Nash, Lee Mitchell, Steve Snitch and Jamie Ellis
