Being reported he has signed a 2 and a half year contract with Crawley.

Glad he’s gone. Glad he’s got another job.

Same. I don't harbor any dislike for the man, ala Sheridan. But he wasn't up to the job. Good luck to him at Crawley

Echo the same sentiments as the few posters above.
Unless he costs us promotion last game of the season.

wonder what attracted Crawley to him?

I read they went data driven recruitment too this season.

I guess our league position looks good compared to them.

Don’t know if his options were high. Only a nut job club would be interested really.

oh I can think of a few reasons why he'd go
  - cash
  - length of contact
  - football style disliked by section of fans
  - Austin not his choice (possibly)
 
And we don't know how it was behind the scenes.

I was wondering more why he was on Crawley's list, at least at this point. They are sort of in a relegation scrap and he's not that experienced.

Anyway, a bit like when Garner left, good luck to him.

It's more about who we appoint now. As much as it would be peak Swindon to be managed by someone known as 'mad gav', let's hope we can find someone with a bit of experience. Might be a tall order with the model in place.

Another reason is that he wouldn't get a manager's job anywhere else in the league.

I get avoiding Crawley if you're a young manager starting out and don't want to damage your reputation but that isn't the case with him, he's probably grateful any club will take him.  What's the worse that can happen? He gets sacked after a couple of months with a nice pay off in back pocket

Location must be a factor

Would be a great result for us to get rid without paying compo (presumably)

As above good luck to the guy and a strange move by Crawley when they seemingly had two capable managers already this season. As also stated Crawley to Kent is a lot nearer so that must have been a contributing factor.

Apologies if this has been mentioned, does anyone know how long SL’s STFC contract was?

I think his final comment in t’Adver was pointing out that bringing in more experience wouldn’t guarantee more consistency.

Maybe the Jan recruitment is heading that direction.

The club need to confirm Lindsey's departure so we can see some new manager betting odds!

Pretty much this...

No fear of that Crawley will probably be about 3 managers further on by then!

Apologies if this has been mentioned, does anyone know how long SL’s STFC contract was?

I've asked this question several times, on the silence I assume nobody knows, when I looked back at his appointment the news pieces seemed silent on the matter.

Amazing in this thread how many posters now seem to know intimately what SL is/was thinking about his career progression.  Cheesy

Still no official comment, was it just too late to get an announcement out or do we think they are waiting to announce a new manager at the same time

I'm led to believe that's unlikely at this juncture. (the second part)

I reckon the club will release something official today regarding SL's departure and the upcoming hunt for a new manager.

we've been to Aberdeen, we hate the Hibs, they make us spew up, so make some noise,
the gorgie boys, for Hearts in Europe.
