Could be barking up the wrong tree because we’ve not had any club statement on anything but if they weren’t expecting to have the next manager in by the next game someone would have been named as caretaker I’d have thought.

One interesting name that I can’t see mentioned is Eni Aluko, she might consider us as a first decent foray into management and I imagine would be prepared to work under our “model”. It is a massive gamble on our part.
Wow. 😳 I mean I'd get lindsey back in. If her press conferences are anything like her commentary gaffs. There's nothing to suggest she would make a good manager in the women's game so let's not be that experiment

DIV I think a decision had already been made by the club to make changes especially in little of the CA signing and the bad atmosphere / results that were happening. Scott L was unfortunately the man to take Swindon forward and most / everyone knew that at the time of his appointment. That said, who would want other people selecting your players especially inexperienced people who are more likely to pick the winner at Newmarket than the next Don Rogers.

It will be sorted by the next home game on the 14th.
Are you assuming or you know?

to be honest I don't know much about him.
I've said I've no desire to be fucking Crewe in the past, so naturally their former manager is in the frame

I like Artell though when listening and watching his interviews he always puts me in mind of Daniel Kitson in Phoenix Nights. He is surely the only football manager with a degree in forensic biology. It probably helps sort out the crime scene after some of the performances all our teams have had. He wouldn't be my first choice but he wouldn't be a bad one.

Me neither. Record pretty poor with Crewe. I know it’s all relative to expectations and all that but again to me comes across as another ‘style over substance’ manager whose job description at Crewe was play nice football first, win games second. Although, I’m far from an expert on anything Crewe tbh

He kept Crewe in the league and then against all odds led them to promotion to League One. Yes his time ended with relegation but his overall record there was commendable. Crewe and Swindon may both be railway towns but you are a considerably bigger club than Alexandra, He wouldn't be my number one choice but he'd be a good appointment.

Look at Wellens though, Oldham etc, then us and Orient. Sounds similar.

Sounds like a man that has been through the wringer and been successful at the current level Swindon area now Hungry to get back in the hotseat. Six month rolling contract and fill your boots I say
