He’s not obviously on the current “Who’s who”…
Feels a big demotion for Gav, which is odd but maybe Flynn didn’t want him near the first team.

Development loan manager. Sounds a real busy job that. Anyone think they are trying to push him out? |

I am kind of glad Gunning isn't first team now. Mainly because it shows that Flynn has sole control now and what he wants he is getting. I know on the face of it it seems harsh on Gunning but he should be happy tbh as most clubs he would have gone with the previous management team

Jamie russell mentioned before he was currently doing that role and it is one they see as really important. I agree as well as getting annoyed seeing all our youngsters going to the same old clubs around the area, the club were really keen to offer him the role. If they wanted to get rid they would have easily enough |

Its totally normal for a new manager to pick his team. I like Gunning but at the end of the day, we (I definitely) wanted a proper football manager rather than a coach and this is part of that. |

I like Gav Gunning, reckon he is potential to be a good first team coach / manager once he has all his badges. Gutted that he won't be part of the 1st team coaching but hope he's really successful in his new role.

I was going to say, I wonder if the club are going to make an announcement that Russell is our new Director/Head of football. He certainly seems very well thought of at the club so unless he's been headhunted by another club or they've sent him to Oz to begin our STFC adventure down under I wouldn't be surprised if there is news about him soon (whether that's normal soon or STFC soon is another matter) |

I think you are right on all of that Bob. Who is your source, not sent away though  |

Someone on twitter said Russell was at the game last night and sat in the dugout, so thankfully still seems he's around.

That Academy announcement yesterday, was surprising in a pleasant way. It appears to have a bit of a longer term planning feel about it. And I just think if we have a footballing asset like Russel in the club, we should utilise his ability, and I really hope that we do. Someone on twitter said Russell was at the game last night and sat in the dugout, so thankfully still seems he's around.
Yeah that's really positive if true. |
