I'm assuming that the other Scott is sticking around? Some room to accommodate Caddis on the coaching staff would be welcome, but all well & good if the 2 Scott's can take the strain & any savings are recycled into the playing budget.
Some good examples of people with a less than stellar playing career going on to make a mark in coaching.
As always, even with due diligence every managerial appointment is still a risk with no guarantees.
As fans it would be good to pick up where we left off towards the end of last season.
Looking forward to the fixtures & some positive news on contract renewals.

I thought he spoke pretty well and said pretty much what we thought he would.
Hopefully he will engage the fans more than Garner ever did or even tried.
Has a few of his own ideas about aggression on the pitch and attacking with speed, something we missed under Garner at times, certainly the aggression side of it.
I can see why Clem decided to appoint Lindsey as apparently most of the players last season said that the dressing room was the best they had ever experienced, so its continuity and hopefully will keep a few of the OOC players and get some in to compliment the players we already have.

This is the kind of posts i am refering to when i say constantly negative on here. How has his tattoo got any relevance to anything ffs. There are plenty of other reasons to doubt this appointment but bloody hell.. It's a tattoo

It's obviously a 'meh' appointment. No need to dress it up any other way. I'm just happy we have somebody in the building, the other thread was getting pretty angsty!
Whilst on the subject of not dressing things up the assistant is likely to send some over the edge apparently. He won't disclose a name but he's from the lower echelons of the league/non-league pyramid.

Agree. He also said quick attacking football, but then again so did Garner in his Charlton interview

Well I hope its just that no one has heard of him from that rather than someone known for being spectacularly awful.

Oh god, I have just read on his blurb that Scott Lindsey's kids go in the town end for most games. I really really really hope it goes well for him as some of the shit shouted by fans can be toxic to listen to.

I think it's probably the former to be honest.

My thought is that of recent managerial appointments, many of us (if I recall the TEF threads at the time) were more positive about Brown, Flitcroft or McGreal than we were about Wellens and Garner - but we all know which two of those five turned out to be the better appointments. I just hope Lindsey hasn’t said “it’s Swindon Town!” In his first interview.
Hopefully the relationships from last season will encourage the likes of Egbo and Payne to sign again, and he will know how to make McKirdy tick (an outsider may not).
Looking forward now to the new (or re) signings being announced.
Some people have posted that “promoting assistants never works” - more accurate to say that it can work and has on occasions. Some have cited examples of it not working already, equally there are some which worked rather well - Bob Paisley and Joe Fagan being the best examples of that.

Not buying Sandro saying he doesn't know how close Lindsey came to joining Charlton.
He comes across as a bit of a bullshitter, to be honest.
