I'm of the belief that I'd rather we didn't get a new manager until the regime changes.

Flynn is part of the regime. He's toed the line, joined in with the lies, been complicit. Anyone of any class would have resigned after Aldershot. His shabby contract extension stinks to high heaven and him and Hatswell are clearly about as much use as Paul and Barry Chuckle on the training ground. His motivational, organisational and leadership abilities are non existent.

Morris at least had the guts and self respect to call out the bullshit.

I'd like Flynn to stay until the entire Morfuni operation is driven out.

Then we make a fresh start with a Caddis or similar.

Agree with this, providing there is a snow ball in hells chance of happening.

He's never got out of L2 before.

Any manager who has got out of league 2 before won’t be looking for a job in league 2 unless their career is on a downward trajectory.

Perhaps the defensive coach should be the first to go!

Not always, if a manager can see a plan and thinks the club is on an upward curve then they may sometimes be willing to drop down to go forwards.

If you were a seasoned or respected manager and the Swindon job came would you, if you’d done your homework and due diligence accept a job here?

Looking at an under achieving club with decent crowds you’d have to ask yourself why that was surely? And don’t managers and agents talk to each other?

I was amazed that Morris, hugely well connected across football, joined us for exactly this reason but I think that the reality is that there are enough ambitious managers out there that are prepared to steel themselves and say “how bad can it be?”

The answer of course is “disastrously bad” but you only find that out after you’ve been told that Foundation Park is the training ground and yet the Beversbrook dressing room is shaking to the sound of that morning’s Zumba class whilst one of the heavies from the boardroom waits outside to tell you that it would be a really good idea if you include his son on the bench.

Might be tongue in cheek but he'd be a level of back to basics we need. He'd certainly get them fit in preseason which has been a staple of every one of our successful div 4 teams.

Any new manager will probably come from Michael Standings agency anyway.

They did under Di Canio, not that long ago. Some thrive under it, like Simon Ferry.

Modern players are too mollycoddled and wouldnt cope with Lous training regime these days. Playing fatigued etc blah blah blah.

A manager of his ilk would get them fit and stop them conceding goals though.

Not many like that around now as most managers just want to play tippy tappy passing football, flatter to decieve stuff, creating few actual chances as they would rather walk the ball into the net ala FIFA computer games than actually having a shot or a penetrative pass to a striker inside the box.

No no no mate...that's 'posession based football'...it's the line all 'modern coaches' trot out now. They're just robots who can't think for themselves...
