And after the headline, this was pretty much the first sentence...

Speculation that Trent Barrett is on the verge of signing a three-year deal with Wigan is “wide of the mark”, according to UK publication Wigan Today.

“Wigan were about to ink the deal then at the last moment the CEO had a hunch and googled ‘pretty boy’ and found the Silvertails fan forum online. The deal was quickly scuppered”

“We dodged a bullet”, says Wigan CEO.

he could have been the most beautiful coach they ever had ...

I heard he's working in the outdoor furniture section at Bunnings...

This would never have even been an afterthought at Wigan when Maurice Lindsay was in charge there.

Funny thing is Peter Sharp first sprung to my mind.

I hear he is losing a ton of money because he keeps bringing in his own chairs to re-stock.

Reading on, happy to see Cheyse Blair might get a gig over there. Much dedication and persistence from him.

I don’t wish him any Ill will and actually hope he succeeds wherever he ends up as a coach as I’ve always thought he had talent but he just lacks man management experience.
I’ve seen it so many times in business where the best performer at the lower level is promoted and cannot perform as a manager and is then sacked.
Barrett will be a very good assistant coach as he has a lot of good attacking strategy and Manly still do it this year but, he had no idea about defence.
As we all know and Des says, “defence wins more matches than you lose”.

That's right mate , You don't wish any ill will to anyone and I am sure we all share the same sentiment

The only thing we wish is he never has anything to do with Manly again .

Worst Manly coach in the history of our great club .

Always believed he would make a great ass coach for some team. Wish him well as long as its not Manly.

Ooops did I say ass coach, sorry Trent meant Assistant.

he just lacks man management experience.

And the ability to instill culture, respect for the jersey, discipline, pride and dignity, create attack and defence structures, accept responsibilty and, and...
