Sort of what was suggested when he was sacked.

I'm pretty underwhelmed, however our lack of attacking threat and style of play will hopefully be changed by this appointment. I'm fucking sick of the sideways and backwards passing with 2 shots in a game bollocks

Looking at that they must have had a half decent start to the season to have been sacked after such a losing streak and still be 9 points above relegation.

Good to see so many on that FB page really getting behind him. I've no doubt he'll be given every chance by our fans.

Fucking hell. I can understand why people would be underwhelmed but you'd think we'd just re-appointed Maplas with Hart as assistant.

My opinion is it could of been a lot worse. We need to get behind him now.

Oh Teddy Teddy

Exactly e.g. Drummy

Least he has some experience, played the game at the highest level for the best clubs in the country (and world) so knows his shit, he has a lot of people to convince but the first step towards that will be the player recruitment, what is done in the next 6 weeks will give an indicator on the type of style we will play and where we could realistically be finishing.

What makes me laugh is the same people slating his appointment were creaming over the thought of getting John Terry as manager, and even when we got PDC in, he did 30 odd games at Stevenage and didn't work for him, his reputation can only improve and I really hope he doeasn't do a Hoddle and bolt as soon as a bigger team come calling

Willing to give him a go. We all complained Williams lack of playing experience was evident last year and that's one thing Teddy had loads of..

I have reservations (most seem to have the same) but plenty of managers have had shit tenures followed by good ones at new employers.

From the moment that the scarf is over his head, he has my complete support.

Plus he knows a lot of people in the game so can call on them for favours with players and advice.......

Yes. It being STFC, we need to wait for the scarf, but I think this could be a decent appointment.

That's rather an assumption...

Entirely this, good luck to the fella, with maany of our fans he will definitely need it, even at 51 he is probably fitter than most of the squad last year so could get a game.

On a more practical level does anyone know what sort of style he played at Stevenage, as a player he was more 'continental' in style that the majority of his peers, how will he get on winning over the 'get it forward' brigade?

Teddy came in to replace Westley a notorious anti-football merchant, maybe where it went wrong, if he tried to get them playing.  SAF's first rule of management....don't ask players to do what they're not capable of.

He will pretty much have tabula rasa with us, as we've so few players.
