Was about to say the same thing, the good coach thing seems a bit of a myth with nothing on his CV suggesting anything other than average lower league youth coach. It seems a lot of peoples opinions of his coaching ability is based on sentiment rather than the facts at hand.

With someone like Garner I have serious doubts about his long term suitability for the top job in managing a football team at a decent level.  What I am not in doubt about is his coaching - he took the skeleton of a shit team under Sheridan, sprinkled in a bunch of possible talent and in very short time you could see a way of playing (like it or not).  You also saw some younger players improve.  Lindsey, to me, looks to have tried to continue what was there.  One of the reasons it's looked so meh to me - it's an attempt at continuity with lesser talent and very few looking to improve over that time.

Crawley rumour is based on a fake Twitter post isn't jt

It could be a joke, but it didn't originate from today.

Whilst I agree a change was probably for the best, I do not understand those on social media who are publicly celebrating somebody who’s lost his job. Scott genuinely cares about our club, worked hard and has been through a lot the past few years. The only feeling I take away from this is one of sadness that it didn’t work out. I was so happy for him after Mansfield. Hope he does well wherever he goes.   



Because its for the betterment of the club. I'm a Swindon Town fan not a Scott Lindsey fan.

I think of the abuse he received from fans in person and via various media channels played in his decision to quit.

If that is true football management isn't for him. Fuck me he got a drop in the ocean compared to some managers.

Not being funny, but does he have a good coaching pedigree?

Not as far as I can tell.

If the Crawley thing has any truth to it, my reading is that he got an approach (god knows why after our game against them, unless he was already in the running  Wink), knew he was on the brink here and engineered an agreement that suited all parties.

Indeed, it is one thing to question managerial credentials and another to label him some of the things that have been written by the childish prats on social media

Nothing from the club as yet, I wonder whether after all the shite they got in the summer they are waiting to get the successor signed up before making an announcement, missed the 5 O'Clock opportunity today.

It's a little bit interesting that after being a very un-leaky club after Power and Jewell left, the last few big announcements have all been heavily rumoured before the club got anywhere near announcing them. Don't know if it means anything really, but clearly "sources" have been growing in the STFC hierarchy!

I must have missed most of this thankfully. All I have seen is people pissed off with him as manager and his football.
