Good luck with that. He doesn't come across as someone who takes well to criticism or even an opposing point of view, in fact he seems remarkably thin-skinned for all the bluster. e.g. the "media ban" stuff.
Maybe, contrary to all the assumptions that Cooper was just a frontman/cipher and Williams was the real backroom genius, the breakdown in the relationship came because Cooper stood up to Power and said "Look, this isn't working" and Williams was the Power yes man?
....and that is exactly why we will struggle this seaso. We are in a battle and we need to come out fighting.....and we won't. |

Not sure he was involved in football when he was here even... did a good line in offering out entire stands of away fans, but football naaah
Fans that had been giving him abuse....and had a pop at him for heaven forbid - clearing the ball into touch whilst we were defending The prick. |

A coach in the youth set up at Manchester United I believe. I will be in the minority, however I thought he was a decent defender for most of his time with us. In regards to the current vacancy, Derry and Ling would be atrocious appointments on the face of things. I would not be adverse to Wally Downes, that would leave me more confident of a defensive improvement. On another note, I would like to know what Dennis Wise is up to, I would welcome a return for him. |

Felt he was an ok defender for the level BUT clearly demotivated and only after one last pay day.
Still remember he scoffing burgers on the side of the pitch at Hampton and Richmond in a Pre Season friendly while 'injured'.
And, during a league game, while also 'injured' necking beers in the Members Lounge before and after the match.
Not really the best example to be setting when you are one of the seniors pros.

I had a laugh on the way home last night when some genius suggested to BBC Wilts that Colin Calderwood's appointment would add 2,000 to the gate every week!

Why?
Because he's Colin Calderwood. He's not that big time. Sure he was an extremely important player for us but his managerial record is average and just not that charismatic. |

Calderwood may well add 2k per match if he is selected (assuming he applies), the reason my have something to do with attendances at his point of appointment. Seriously there would be some lift off at the start and a bigger increase in traction if he is sucessful. We won't get Calderwood so not to worry.

There's only one person that would add substantially to attendances.

Ruddock would certainly add a few K's.. of a sort. |

Difficult as it is to understand LP sometimes, when he says he's interviewing 4-5 candidates that fit his criteria (one of which is a previous link to the club), does he really mean that ALL candidates have been previously linked to the club?

Colin is my second favourite Town player in 50+ years of viewing, but his time for managing us is passed. I want a managerial virgin. Could Darren Ward be our Eddie Howe? |
