Grown on me alot if i am honest. My only slight concern is i do think he has it in him to fall out with players easily but i forget in manager terms he is young. Let us hope he learns from it

Cautiously optimistic. And given how I felt when he arrived that's quite the turn around.

The proof is in the pudding as the saying goes, but he hasn't done a lot wrong so far. I like he's trying to re-engage a jaded fanbase/community a lot.

I think it's perfectly reasonable to be feeling a bit of hope and optimism going into the new season with Richie. That's  as much as you can ask for as a fan of a lower league club.

I like him. I like his attitude and his values. He might have been a little naive at times but that's to be expected. Going forward I expect his no nonsense approach to bear fruit.

I find he's like Cooper with less of the blame game going on. He rightly calls out players/himself/fans when needed but is also quick to compliment. Could he be a blend of Cooper/Di Canio? Just way less erratic than PdC and with less budgie. We live in interestring times! Hmmm

FFS what have budgies ever done to you? Outrageous comment. Birdist..

I'll echo batch's comments. Normally I'm very confident, but the last 3 seasons have knocked that out of me.

A minor stat, but Wellens has just completed 46 league games, albeit spread over two seasons.

P46 W20 D13 L13 F68 A54 PTS 73

Still classed as a rookie manager I guess but that's not too bad and should hopefully improve as the season progresses.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

That’s the POs almost every season - minimum achievement, I reckon.

Won’t take much of an improvement this season to get top 3.

I do worry that he may get poached if we get promotion this season, especially with links to his former clubs.

 Wellens has improved on last season, after improving on Brown, to get the predicted 13th place finish.

 He also this season got the needed results after a poor trot.... all good signs.

 However he will come up against 2 things which he pointed out last season as a problem.... namely key men on loan, and too many in the squad not contributing much.  It wil be how the management team resolve this in Jan which will decide if we're going anywhere in 2020.
