I'd like to know from those saying it is an underwhelming and disappointing appointment, who they realistically thought we would get

Got sacked after finishing in Play Offs losing to Exeter who were a very decent side that year. Beat Palace and Spurs in the League Cup losing in the quarter finals at Manchester United.
Considering Colchester finished lower this season than in any of those in which Mcgreal was manager (without knowing any other factors at Colchester that may have impacted), it doesn't look a bad appointment to me.

amazingly one of the club leadership team (and I use the term leadership team in the loosest sense) speaks; albeit through the website. Anyway good luck John - you are gonna need it |

Good appointment, but will have both hands tied behind his back until the ownership changes.

Nice 'arms-folded' pic on the OS now.  Found a dumped mattress outside his house has he? |

I'd say most on TEF have been pretty positive overall about McGreal. Twitter may be a different story though? |

Can't help feeling sorry for McGreal. Not only does he have to work with Power interferring and dictating who he can & can't play but he's gonna have frig all money to bring players in on a team that will need to be totally rebuilt.

Just saw this on the STFC LinkedIn page. Not sure why anyone would have any particular objections to McGreal's appointment.

First port of call, give Curran a 3 year contract extension!

Very pleased. Was dreading a Newell and Sheedy appointment.

I did quite like his comment:
"It's Swindon Town. That alone makes you want to apply for the job."
