    There's something about this appointment that it is growing on me. Not based on facts necessarily, but feel.

    He's passionate, plays our style and formation, builds from the back, takes no crap, knows the leagues, learnt from good managers, animated like warnock on the sideline, played as a centre half so will make our defence solid..
    I'm excited

    Over his 3 or 4 years at Tampa his goal difference was summat ridiculous like +120. Consistently among best defences.

    He's a no nonsense jock who idolises our own Big Mick.

    Brownie points for that like.

    Really interesting interview with the Tampa fan. Basically he's taken a mid table ESL outfit to be the most successful they have ever been and into the play offs for the last 3 seasons including winning the Eastern championship in two of those. Sounds like he came in and really transformed the team. Could be really exciting if he can reproduce what he's done at Tampa. Sounds like the fans love him as well.

    Holds the league record. Of 891 mins without conceding a goal as well.

    Enjoyed the red all over interview with the Tampa fan btw. The more I read and watch fills me with more optimism that we have chosen wisely. And not gone with a rushed appointment just to satisfy impatient fans.
    Touch wood. Fingers crossed.

    I must be on the wrong site, positivity considering no one knew the new incumbent before his appointment.
    Get a grip.
    He must be shiete he's our 7th choice, he's no experience of the league, we've sold our entire 1st team squad including releasing loanees, the flatbreads aren't flat enough, despite our best efforts the beer isn't being poured quick enough.
    COYR
    I'm looking forward to the next chapter!!!!

    Does he say

    ‘hard work pays you back’

    And

    ‘football owes you nothing’

    ?

    I think its gone down poorly with some fans because it was so left field and out of the blue' maybe if he'd been mentioned or on the bookies odds we would have had a look at his record and credentials and thought differently' on paper he does actually look like a good fit.
