BREAKING : @BBCWiltsSport understands former Southend boss Phil Brown will be the @Official_STFC manager until the end of the season, assisted by Brian Horton #stfc
Brian Horton will not make Chalkies shorts very happy! Not exactly come out of the blue.

Good to see Taylor being kept on as player/coach though.

Would this appointment qualify the club for having done its bit under the Rooney Rule?

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

Rooney rule is only for FA roles afaik
Not sure what to make of this - he’s had a couple of promotions in his career, and kept Southend comfortably in league one. But he’s a bit of a figure of fun (for good reason) and a little underwhelming
It feels like a bit of a poisoned job at the moment anyway - we’ve got so many injuries and I get the sense the team was playing about as well as they could under flitcroft. Ultimately it’s the right decision now to get a bit of experience in and try and guide the team to the end of the season, but unless Brown gets us promoted I’d like to see a younger, fresher manager given the keys for next season (be that Taylor or A.N. Other)

Not overwhelmed but still satisfied we've appointed a reputable manager so quickly.
Let's see what he can do with this very mediocre squad.

Hope we can get the new manager "bounce" for the next ten games.

On one hand I think he's living off his Hull reputation a fair bit, but on the other he did take Southend up.
He's only here for 10 games for now, so let's see where it takes us.

Our first Geordie manager?
"Sleeping giant". Phil, you are more than welcome with having a good go at waking us up.

He must know of a few out of work CBs as well. I still reckon we'll see one come in.
