New Manager is ?

[Vtid]

What are peoples thoughts regarding the new gaffer? Do we get one in asap & try to pick this team up along with some points or take a bit of time to make sure we get the right man in? It’s a difficult one as we don’t have time to hang around based on our league position & run of form but we need a reaction fast. For me I’d like someone in before the weekend but I can see why we also don’t want to rush the appointment. What a predicament! Thoughts?

I wonder how the fanbase will react when/if Kennedy is announced

It would seem a lazy appointment for me when for once there a lot of decent managers out there or at clubs,they have to get this right or it is going to massively backfire on Carol for her loyalty to DF,lets hope he is as loyal to her

You are right but I doubt he has loyalty to anything other than his wallet

I will not be happy! Previous jobs are 8 months at Macclesfield Town & a 12 month stint at Lincoln where he was sacked & fans wanted him gone long before he was given his marching orders. He’s pretty much just another coach for me

Whoever is chosen some fans ain't going like it 

I'd say get on with it 

I reckon they already got who they want .

Couldn't care less who he is personally .

As a manager you only as good as your team .

Everyone knows that money buys success generally .

Unless your Stoke then it doesn't which is weird as you think playing for one of 100 richest people in England would be, well paid job which should make every player want to get the win 365 bonuses .

So sometimes you can succeed with nothing 

Anyway enough of that rambling announce the new man I wish him luck he will need it .

An even worse record than AC, so pretty <ovf censored> angry I'll be honest.

My personal thoughts on this are that despite the going through a proper interview process this time(like they have said),i think they had their man on Tuesday.

Personally i hope i am way off but i will be surprised

Couldn’t care less who the manager is!!! I told you to stay off that chimp powder it’s no good for you 🤦‍♂️

My big issue will be if it is kennedy,how can they justify giving such a massive task/critical job of keeping us in League One to another inexperienced manager who has managed 83 games and has worse stats than AC because that will be a very interesting reply

Kennedy would be uninspiring to say the least. We need an old school type manager, even if it’s just to get us to the end of the season. None of this “building for the future” type bollox.

Mark Kennedy quote “We were too expansive, to win games you have to be hard to beat. We tightened up. I didn’t want us to be a team with 700 passes and the two centre halves have 400 between them. I think I’ve brought a realism — we play in League One and sometimes a game will look League One. But the philosophy has to be around playing football and possession-based. We’re not going to whack the ball from back to front. But you don’t need 83 per cent possession.”Mark Kennedy quote “We were too expansive, to win games you have to be hard to beat. We tightened up.

Rumours beginning to circulate online re Kennedy. God I hope not. Would be such an uninspiring appointment. You might as well have kept Crosby & hoped for the best.
