It will be Mike Flynn

He has Conference experience which will come in handy.

Do you think so?

we have contracted technical players and as far as I remember he's a lot more direct.

I just want to win, so I don't really care what style we play..

He had three seasons there. His second season he led them to a fifth place finish and League One Play-Off Final where they lost to Blackpool. His first and third seasons he had them finishing in the bottom half.

The problem with Appleton is his Oxford connections would fans take to him.

The problem with Appleton is that he's been a manager for 12 years and had one decent season and 9 or 10 shit ones.

I think he was direct at Newport for a reason (pitch and finances), but things didnt do go well at Walsall, not sure why. He was big mates with Wellens as well right.

He seemed to be doing a decent job in the first half of the season, he had a big clear out and brought in lots of players last summer and were just outside the play offs then it went downhill after they beat us.

Walsall's season collapsed when Danny Johnson was recalled by his parent club Mansfield. Clough barely used him afterwards but he'd scuppered The Stags.

The next manager has to be experienced, we have done the inexperienced and it hasn't worked for Clem,

We've done experienced too. Colin Todd, Andy King, Roy Evans, Paul Sturrock, Maurice Malpas, Danny Wilson, Mark Cooper, Phil Brown and John Sheridan.

That's the sort of experienced manager we can attract.

And the sort of names people are throwing around look to continue that record of ball aching mediocrity. Michael Appleton for fuck sake. Just kill me now.

That's where Morris' appointment was at least a little bit "Oh, that's interesting!"

So, we’ve also done academy type coaches - Williams, Garner, Lindsey, Morris. Where do we go next?

If money is tight we’re not going to attract an ex-name type like Macari, Hoddle or, God forbid, McMahon.

That only leaves the names that have been bandied about this evening - Clarke, Artell, Cowley, Appleton etc.

And you don’t seem keen on them!

I was a bit shocked hearing this.

IMO the Manager and the style never changed...just the name. Academy football, needless passing for the sake of it and then hit on the break or give away the ball as its L2 and concede.

BUT..id thought he would of been given a crack...

Not bothered that hes gone....all a bot Meh.

I dont think the ST take up has been very good at all.

Thanks Jody but the Stats and Win % is more than enough to part company.

The virus was ingested when Scott 'obvious choice' Lindsey was appointed after we dithered for fucking weeks and weeks.

Then alot of piss poor players brought in trying to play keep ball..

It was fucking awful but we had a foot in the door....then Lindsey fucked off and then the infamous January transfer window (which was boarded up)....

ST sales are awful hence the Early Bird being extended. Maybe a new name might offer 'hope' and a flurry of sales?

But as we all know...its the hope that kills you.

I will be there and hopefully NOT watching academy football.

It gets on my tits...somethings never change. Sad
