What about this Hartley lad does everyone like?

Is it just because he has no spurs connection
A good player in his day and a decent track record at a level lower than we hope to play!  Other than that - nothing!

Hartley has fabulous head of hair and the ability to grow a no-nonsense beard.

Two promotions at Alloa is good work, but were they not a part time team? Therefore the professional methods he employed will have made a big difference there. Taking over a full time team he can't do the same thing and get the same response.

More evidence he can be a good manager than Sir Les, just not sure why people really like him.

Played for bristol city as well!

When I first saw his name I did a double take as I missed the last 3 letters of his name.

Ha, I was literally just about to post that too bud, the following quote stood out for me:

"When I stopped playing football I wanted to be a manager and not a coach because I insist on running my club’s playing side from top to bottom. I have to be my own man.”

Surely he can't be the right man for the job at the moment?

That was my first thought when I read that sentance as well KT!

A couple of good quotes about Paul Hartley after their play off games last season.....

They seem to tick the right boxes.

Quote
"It's fantastic to come into training.

"You would not believe some of the stuff we do - fittest team in the league.

"We do hundreds of stuff you wouldn't even see and the hard work shows in the end."

Quote
"We know we work under limited resources. We've not got a lot of money, but it's not about money for the guys - it's about enjoying their football and seeing the club progressing and the players progressing.

"We try to pass the ball, we've got a good group of players and I'm proud of the club and the achievement of the players."

Fitness and passing, both good attributes.

almost every manager claims they want their team to pass the ball and be the fittest team, just standard manager talk

That could well put him off then if as suggested Lee Power brings all the players in, we will have to see.

That wasn't a quote from him but from one of his players.
