Honestly, I'm not quite sure at the moment.

Alan Mac has talked a really good game on the radio this season, so much so that I'd like to see him give it a go.

I was impressed with him when he commentated as well. He' s apparently still very friendly with Bodin, so I suppose there's the possibility of them linking up as a team? No proven managerial record, so could be risky, but prob no more so than the likes of Wally Downes . Massive fans favourite in his day tho and would probably bring a few more back through the gates. I'd be pleased to see him given a try. My fave player in 1989-90!

I do feel that Wray and Watkins will really try and get this decision right tho.  Let's hope they do and we're not all left feeling disappointed and underwhelmed. It will be a shame if we kick off League 2 in a air of pessimism.

Dont think Trollope would be such a bad dissapointment myself, especially if it was with someone like Downes.

My thoughts also.

i'm ruling out anyone that will cost compo money.
plenty of candidates that wont need paying out for.
if bodin wins the next 2 games then it could be his? not convinced he wants it though.
trollope wants it, make no mistake about that,but as time has progressed i am thinking it wont be him offered it.i think he would have come in straight away if he had been lined up for the job.


Fitton rated Trollope.....now he's gone, albeit technically into the background, I'm not convinced he'll get it.

Whoever gets it will probably need to win the first 6 games, like Wise, in order to avoid abuse. Town fans aren't happy bunnies at the moment. I'm really not liking the Downes talk....if it happens it will just prove lessons haven't been learned.

I agree with Arriba, with Trollope being linked for so long, surely he'd have come in already?

Well it's possible that he was lined up as head coach by Fitton with Hart DOF. Of course now Fitton isn't chairman Wray has made the decision that Hart will not be here at all. I guess with this in mind we can assume Trollope won't be happening.

That was true I think. Well I remember him being placed on "gardening leave" which isn't actually being sakced is it?

I just think why write off a boss (like Trollope) who has proved he can lead a L1 club? They were always a tough game until this season.

Bodin doesnt have the charisma in my opinion. He needs to get a job and be a success in the non leagues first. We dont want another Onoura. Base the appointment on managerial ability, not playing ability.

Good to hear Wray and the board have clearly listened to the fans and taken on board the comments. Definitely need to move quickly to rebuild properly this summer.
