They considered Cooper when they appointed Garner. Copper having just got the Barrow job and who is now unemployed?

Already seeing calls for Paul Caddis - what coaching experience does he have? He’s been running his own soccer schools recently hasn’t he (no disrespect meant, but it’s not as if he has been coaching within the professional game) - sentiment aside, feels an odd one.

No smoke without fire, further positive cash flow.
Let’s see where the intention is?
After all was a relatively cheap appointment at the time.

Can’t fault his first season in fairness.
However more of a coach than an out and out Manager.

Wellens v Garner only as a debate only one winner for me.

The worst that can happen is we have to start all over again. Just this time with nowhere near as much debt and no embargo.

It's not ideal but it's exciting. This is what lower league is all about.

We're all part of a food chain. Wellens and Garner both had one good season with us after failing in their previous jobs. There is no loyalty. Both have jumped at the first opportunity.

Let's see what happens!

Ryan Mason also mentioned which I'd be behind also. We're almost certainly going down the promising coach a la Ipswich/Franchise.

Interesting times

Amazed at how many of you are happy to wave him off into the sunset. I'd be reasonably confident that with a more settled squad, lessons learned from this season, a full pre season etc that we could really push for autos with Garner next season. The grass is rarely greener.

After all, to quote one of our former managers, "It's Swindon Town".

Carrick or Garrard seem obvious choices if attainable.

People thinking Carrick wouldn't go for it? I'd think he'd be desperate to kick start his management career the same place that kick started his playing career.

Minded to agree. A known quantity, with the factors mentioned above in his favour approaching his second season.

That we operated with only one senior striker in our squad and topped the charts for goals is remarkable in hindsight.

I’d be happy with Carrick or Mason…but have a feeling it will be someone none of us have heard of.

He’s done well. But I can’t find it within me to be upset about him leaving. Just don’t feel that bothered. Looking forward more to who we replace him with rather than lamenting that he’s left

McKirdy would also be a possibility

May as well say 6 players leaving to join Garner. Let’s take a chill pill here.

Williams is the obvious link given he has more or less said previously that working with Garner again was the main reason he joined.

That said, he was at Charlton previously wasn’t he, not sure how well thought of he was or in what circumstances that spell ended?

Charlton fans seem thoroughly underwhelmed from what I’ve read.
