They sure were interesting times under Heggs and who could forget his ladderless window cleaners back 5. We were a big physical team.  Heggs even had to play the odd game up front. Gave everything then couldn't walk for a week. 

Can't see this is really a serious option but interesting none the less. 

Really think we will get some decent quality applicants for the job with the squad that Rowe put together.

Must have been a dream day for Simpson.  It wasn't so long back when he was at Boston that Cleeve described him as someone who puts the cones out for Culverhouse

I've just had a listen to Gary Setch's post match interview following Corby's 1-1 draw on the road.

According to the interviewer and Setch Kings Lynn have made an approach for him

Joe Simpson has done himself no harm with this result today.  Just have a feeling it would smack a bit of a Mark Hughes type appointment.  Whoever Bal goes with he needs to get this one bang on the money after what has turned out an expensive disaster with his first go at appointing a Manager.

I'm sill in the Cully camp. Proven track record in getting Boston and Lynn out of Step 2. Though his record at step 1 is poor to say the least.

Whoever gets it has a decent group of players to work with so it should prove to be an attractive proposition for the incoming Coach/Manager

We were spoilt over the years with duo's like Defty/ Bloomfield then later Gash/Marriot.

Ferguson, Clough. 😂

I just hope whoever gets the job doesn't look to rip up the playbook and start again.   A lot of ingredients seem to be there.  Maybe an experienced old hand at the back wouldn't go amiss.

Another name to throw in the hat is ex Wimbledon and Burton Mark Robinson. Though his stats are far from impressive.

Be interested to see Paul's thought he seems to have an eye for these things

I thought Gash wasn't considered for the job as he was unable to commit to Lynn's full time status.

Name to throw out there  Adam Hinshelwood. Check out his stats as a Manager

Genuine question.  What do people think Culverhouse do with this group of players that Rowe has assembled ?

I have to admit to having a blind spot where Cully is concerned. Still think the Football we enjoyed under him in the two promotion season was a bit special.

Feel the whole situation is a a real sad affair. Rowe certainly knows his Football and the expansive brand of Football was indeed a treat to watch at times.   How close he was to getting  it right we will never know.

Hard to believe it's all been chucked up in the air, for what ?

I wonder who people fancy as the next taxi off the rank?   I understand I'm in the running but sadly I won't be throwing my hat into the ring.  As the person suggesting it has backed enough wrong Horses over the past few years. I wouldn't want to be the next one 😂😂

Well the 'risk' Bal took has backfired spectacularly.  Does this bring into question his decision making in the eyes of the fans but also the owner.

First big appointment he has had to make and he's got it wrong, big time. The National coverage this now going to attract must have a negative effect on the Club and its business.

Eyes will be very much in Bal going forward.  Surely he realised this appointment had all the potential to go wrong yet he took that gamble.

Just read the Club statement. Is that really the best Club can come up with ? I think the least we should expect is some form of apology from Bal. or does he already feel his job is untenable ?
