    That really is a strange one. He’s only won 6 games from 17. I expected to read he’d been sacked,

    His kids must be saying "don't be putting us through that again Dad, let's get back to the States."

    That’s decent for the quality of the team. They were bottom of the league when he took over.

    Can’t fault the guy.

    Didn’t quite work for us (not many will), but was a decent bloke and worked hard.

    Makes sense for him to go over there again and it’ll settle his young family too.

    Don't get why any manager would want to manage in a league you cannot get promoted from.

    All the very best to him. I doubt you'll see him back managing in the UK again, any time soon.

    As I’ve said before, great bloke, lovely family and gave it his very best shot at BFC. Eight points and about 20 goals better off at this stage last year.

    Can’t fault him going back to the states. Relax, enjoy the coaching and far less stress.

    I thought he did a decent job. I thought he showed an ability to change games & get results in games even when we had been second best.

    All the best Neill. Honest bloke and he deserves the best for his family which this move feels like.

    I hope he goes back to the States with the blessing of decent Reds fans.

    Decent manager who was poorly treated by our board. Good luck to him.
