In the same interview he also said it's a massive job and he's lucky to have it.
That didn't make the headlines.

Definately a soundbite taken out of context and latched onto by the press and some fans. I don't have any issues with Shez so far other than some weird and often non existant substiutions, he has his hands tied, and hes right, if he was a great manager he wouldn't be at Swindon he would be managing at a far higher level.

I've really found it all quite embarrassing to be honest.
I suspect that some of those making the most noise are well aware of the context, but want to make a show of being angry because it's the in thing to do and making LOUD NOISES helps them be part of the crowd. Or some people just like to be angry regardless of whether or not the anger is justified.

The "I wouldn't be at Swindon" is almost Clough like in its bluntness. And, in the particular context of the situation in which he took over and with the ownership shenanigans, entirely fair. I'd love to hear about the enormous potential of Swindon, Shezza's plans to tap into it and grow us into a respected Championship-level club. Only, right now, that wouldn't seem like ambition, it would sound deranged.
He's not charismatic like our PM for example.
However he's come to save us from relegation. He needs to be judged on that. Obviously his dour, inarticulate countenance recalls Hart but let's remember Wellens failed his R test at Oldham.
For the future, I'd prefer a younger, more ambitious appointment. But they normally come to a club with a plan. Right now, I'm keeping a close eye but I am getting behind Shezza

Maybe that explains why he seemed 'distant'. Awful news and feel very sorry for him - What a rubbish time and thing to happen.

Fuck me that’s terrible
So presumably the reason he missed a couple of press conference wasn’t because he was living it up on the piss as some implied

To lose both parents within a short period is just awful irrespective of the time of year. Can only imagine the whole situation must have been made doubly hard by current restrictions. Condolences and RIP

Shez hasn't held any press conferences since the loss of his mum a few weeks back, perhaps it hit him hard and he doesn't feel up to it?
This makes it even worse for the poor bloke, lost my Dad 10 years on 23rd December and it changes everything in such a short space of time.

Couldn’t blame the bloke if he did have a drink or 10 either in all honesty, who wouldn’t.

Let's hope the guy is given some slack even if results don't go our way. Terrible news and condolences to him and all of his family and friends
