Fitzpatrick is doing a great job which is surprising because he was a right dirt merchant when he played.

Thane, It's not so much I find it strange that he's ended up at widnes, of course he has to work somewhere, and widnes are a club with a good set up these days - no reason not to go there. I found it strange that he hasn't come back here, given his excellent reputation at the club and within the sport - I would of thought we would have made a big effort to bring him back. However and in answer to garyhulsefan below....

I'm not sure why we've gone for Clarke when there's someone available who we've previously had on board and done a good job for us. I'm not saying Clarkey's a worse option, it would just seem more logical to bring Chris back in, but if everyone's happy then it doesn't matter too much.

Karl Fitzpatrick does seem to do a really good job at the club from what I've seen.


If I was baron I wouldn't have wanted to come back to warrington for what effectively is a bit of a demotion - he has his career to think about. Maybe the club did offer him the role, he just thought a more senior position at widnes was a better option for his career.

You never know, we might of had an offer for Clarke ages ago and baron might have become available after we had signed him? I'm happy with Clarke as strength and conditioner but yeah I get what you mean with Baron, he did a great job with us while here :-)

I appear to be the only one not overjoyed by the return of Jon Clarke. Whilst a player of the club was one of the biggest drinkers in team and part of the Stockton Heath contingent along with Cullen. I didn't rate him as a player and feel he was lucky to play in super league for the time he did. Feels like sentiment is propping up the comments here. How many years experience does he have again?
Surely a few better options existed is ts looking to surround himself with another yes man?

Widnes got the better deal by far.

If I was running Wire and an employee left I would wish them well and remain friends, however, I wouldn't want to let them return as they please though.
Barron has a job which he vacated. You can't just put it on ice...you move on. Perhaps in a few years it could be reviewed if he was still interested.

He didn't put it on ice, it was filled. It turned out that nobody liked the guy who filled it and he left, situation vacant.
