Before anyone asks… the last time we took another clubs manager was November 2020, when we appointed a man by the name of John Sheridan who was Wigan manager at the time. That went well.
He wasn’t properly under contract though was he. It won’t be Flynn anyway.

Would be delighted at Flynn. At the very least we could go on a good cup run for a change

Flynn’s football the last time we visited Newport in League Two was some of the ugliest stuff I’ve ever seen. Effective maybe, but just plain ugly. Newport always seemed to start seasons well under him before tailing off too.
Not massively keen on this one.

Not sure why Flynn would leave Newport. Spent a few years there building a team and they've been very close. Also his hometown team. Obviously we are a bigger club but right now, even with Clem in charge, we're still a mess.
If it did come off I'd be pretty happy, he's done a great job there although I can't say I was a fan of his style of football whenever we faced them. Seems like he may have adapted a bit last season so who knows.
Absolutely Flynn wouldnt leave a cushy job for a (on paper) basket case club, as for his style, when we played then they were terrible, hoofball and bully opponents but I saw them 3 times when Twine was there and they played a decent on the deck style which impressed me, it could be that he only had the players (and pitch) for hoofball previously. As it stands though if you want to waste your money stick it on Flynn for the job. I have a feeling we will all be "meh" about the new appointment, but in Clem we trust, when he is finally ratified.

It would be an ambitious move, and I’d be surprised but very happy with it. Look at it another way - can Morfuni afford to not appoint a proven manager? We can’t go down - he needs a positive start. Managerial compensation needn’t be that high. Plus, Flynn’s 2020/21 Newport was very different to the 19/20 version. He had the ball going into Scott Twine’s feet, not sailing over him.

It's sounds like there will be a underwhelming appointment

hmmm. I can't see it being Flynn, even if Nicko is very often right.
it's just the money aspect. we surely need every penny to stabilise the ship.

Update from Noxin: Flynn will be the new manager. With Twine convinced to stay too. Chorley not coming. Was lost in translation. Someone said Robbie Fowler will be travelling down from his newly relocated Chorley, on occasion. ------------------------------- Please take that with the most huge slice of sarcasm. Seems several on here are in agreeance/incredibly ITK on who Town's next manager won't be...a case of "Nixon v The ITKers"...let battle commence. Funny though...had Cowley said similar in that regard, he'd already be hung out to dry by several here. Think Berni mentioned similar the other day '...that's how it usually works isn't it?'. Yet here we are. Some of you obviously know more than some and of course "can't say" but I didn't know some were already as close to Clem as Great Western Reds were/are in bed with Jamie Sendles-White ![Pint](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/pint.gif) FWIW - Jerome Flynn would be a better appointment than the previous managerial enigma.

wonder who Nixon's source is?
It's surely either going to be from the Newport side, or from one of the old regime on ours given there is nobody left to ask.

Must admit I have never seen that, interesting, sounds like paving his way to an exit then, still doubt it will to us though but stranger things have happened.

Flynn would be great but I doubt whether we are in a position to go through an expensive and possibly timely negotiation with Newport.
I suspect we'll see someone like Tisdale being announced this week. I'm relaxed about it all, whatever happens Will happen.

Nixon is usually right.
Although 'wanting' somebody and 'getting' somebody is not necessarily the same thing.
