Sam seems to think a new chief scout is on his way in too. Power taking more of a back seat maybe?
Sherwood? Might see him keep 100% of his compensation and still get a job... (this isn't serious) |

This is going to be a bit of a disaster isn't it.
As people have alluded to already, his mental health is clearly an issue. It's admirable that he's been open about it - but you wouldn't pick a 20 stone bloke to be a jockey, you wouldn't give a blind man a job as a pilot and at the risk of sounding cruel its a bit mental to put a manic depressive in a high pressure job played out in the public eye.
1 in 4 people suffer from a mental health problem in their lives. I'm sure some very successful managers have suffered from depression. Many people have personality disorders and function well in their jobs. Some people are just twats, evidently. |

No that was the start of the following season when Graz lashed one in off the bar. |

Personally, I think the job is a perfect fit for Ling.
Working with people he knows, at a club he knows and without all the stress that comes with being a 'traditional' manager.
People can complain about the management structure at the club but as it is Ling, Williams and Emburey all get along and know and accept it.
Apart from probably losing my bet on Williams, I'm fairly pleased with it.

So we'll be coaching cricket too? That'll put a different spin on training.

Seen this BIB mentioned a few times. I don't really buy that. How many people working at the CG did he work with in his time? I doubt knowing the way to the bogs and coffee room on your first day is a big advantage. (Unless he's been working with the club, in which case I can see the point) |

Well, he did only leave the club 19 years ago. So I'd say he will know no one, and some people won't have seen him play for us either. ....and whilst I didn't start going regularly till our Premiership season, I always thought Ling was a bit crap. |

Think Audrey is alluding to the coaches we have in place inc. Embleton rather than other staff at the club.

Only in the sense of being familiar with the fabric of the club. Just a bit less of a thing to get used to - but I really don't think his past problems will have a bearing on his future
