Why do we assume that ex-players would make good managers ? I’m not too excited by this new man’s CV, but I suppose “moving on” or being moved on, applies to 90% of the profession. And I disagree with Kes that Gash would bring much benefit. He didn’t score enough when he was here, and (being cynical), I’ve never believed the idea that Number 9s “bring other players into the game”. If they’re not iIN the game already, they shouldn’t be playing, IDHO ! Anyway, good luck to the new man, and happy Xmas to all on the forum. We all have our hearts in the same place. Finally, I always used to think the club could make League football in the end, but I no longer believe so, as the ground was never developed, indeed is a lot smaller than days of yore, and we have a very fickle fan base. The potential is still there on both counts, but unlikely to come to fruition.
