WAKEFIELD coach Chris Chester has dropped a big hint that his five-year tenure at Belle Vue could be coming to an end.
The 42-year-old former Wigan, Hull and Halifax forward says personal attacks on social media have forced him to consider his future and revealed he is out of contract, along with 13 of his players, at the end of the season.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity to rebuild the club, whether that involves me in it, I’m not too sure,” Chester said at a press conference ahead of today’s Super League game against Leeds.
“I’m out of contract but I’m comfortable with that to be honest. I’ve had five really good years here at the club and I’ll continue to enjoy my time here.

Again, Oldham kept opponents scoreless in the second half
For the second home game in a row, an Oldham side that was full of verve, energy and self-belief kept opponents scoreless in the second half when beating Halifax Panthers 16-12 at Bower Fold.
In their last home game they scored 18 unanswered points after half-time to beat Swinton Lions 28-20.
This time, they trailed Fax 12-4 at the interval, but stormed back down the slope to win 16-12 with a winning try four minutes from the end by on-loan centre Jack Croft, goaled beautifully from wide out by full-back Callum Green, who had a blinder.
