The one remaining Adver reporter must be on holiday this week - the new manager has not even been announced on there.

He is.  Smiley

Think he’s a dull, uninspiring choice for a dull, uninspiring club.

That said, we could have done a lot worse, a lot worse...

Cheesy

I just looked back at the Adver after that link was posted and it seems that they have posted it in the Sport section, but not the Swindon Town section - so it has probably been posted by the work experience lad..

Haven't looked in detail has he brought an assistant/other staff with him.

Surprised its a two year deal, albeit I imagine they had to do that to get him to take it as gives him the safety net of a bit of a pay off if a new owner wants rid in a months time.

For what it's worth I wouldn't have minded this appointment even if Power wasn't in charge. Think he should probably have enough about him to keep us above the dotted line, depending on recruitment and points deduction.

I do feel for him though. He's in a terrible position, hopefully the ownership stuff is sorted soon and he can get some proper backing. It could just be talk but I liked his interview, rather than Sheridans "job security innit" he did seem to be excited at the opportunity.

No doubts he would have asked questions about funds, job security and takeover etc which he's probably been told not to mention to the media

And he'd have got one side of a very messy story...

Will depend whether the new owner wants a DoF and if he does whether he wants Jewell to be the Dof, same as any employee.

Harsh, but fair.

As long as Mcgreal gets the players that he wants as that was a problem for Wellens last September

Until there is a change of ownership or LP finds another mystery backer, we have massively restricted in what we can spend and will have one of the lowest playing budgets in the league. McGreal will not be able to build a competitive squad as it stands.

We really don't need to go round in this circle again, but, Wellens specifically wanted Kovar, generally considered to be a substantial cause of the shit of last year, so possibly choice is as important as budget.
