If we were only having a stop-gap, we'd have appointed Halsall and Dryden until the end of the season. There's no need at all to appoint from outside if you're doing that.

You are assuming there is someone with an ounce of common sense doing the hiring.

We both know that's not true.

It is and deep down I hope he drags our great club into the championship and beyond but I JUST WISH HE'D ANSWER A FOOKING QUESTION DIRECTLY.  What is so wrong with giving someone an answer to a question they have asked not talk about some utter boll0cks and skirt round the question. Sh1tebag from the start with his answers.

Boy I miss Ricardo's directness

I think it's time to get the tin hats out and wave goodbye to Stanley Aborah & Graham Burke and any chance of football. Effective football only means one thing, hoof it into the stratosphere ala Derry & Abbott then hope for a lucky mistake from the opposing players.

sorry I disagree Stanley has been by far our most best player technically 5x better then this lot he could easily demand a fee  Burke I agree should leave

I'm saying that there is no point in having Stanley on the pitch and therefore he will leave (just fr clarity I really don't want him to) as we will most probably just bypass the midfield with massive long hoof balls to the centre forwards

Speechless 

I dunno il give him a chance as its only fair to but I'm not expecting a lot but if he comes in and played football and we win a don't care how it's done.

This is a physical league with power battle and pace of you have none of that you'll fail like moniz failed cause there was no battle or physicality.

If he brings the right players in makes the right subs at times hel be okay but I still belive cooper was the best bet but I ain't gonna go mad over it I've had my moment yesterday going crazy.

Il give him a chance and see what he can offer i mean he is right in a way we are scoring goals.

But  sometimes we just need to be more structured at the back organised not everyone bomb forward like moniz did

He has as much to lose if he wants to be a manager with success he has got to knuckle down listen take advice and see the game read it and change things at the right time.

he can't be any worse then moniz least he will know what English football is about having coached in it and played in it.

il give him a chance that's all I can say if it fails then it fails if he sucseeds great what happens happens end of we can't control it 

3 an a half years contract

In reality, that doesn't actually mean a lot.  Ray Trew has had his fingers burnt too often not to insert some sort of minimal compensation clause if (when?) it goes t!ts up.  

il give the bloke a chance after listening to his interview he seems determined to make a point and make a name for him seen.

He also seems the type who ain't gonna expect anything less then 100% and battle otherwise you're dropped and I like the fact he pointed out the goals are good.

But we need defensive structure an key roles defensive in players there has not been fantastic defensive teams at meadow lane but the  top teams ain't great but are all organised an know there role and if he can implicate that into our defenders great.

Im going to give him a chance if he does well fantastic and another I disagree on is people on Twitter Facebook giving death threats and abuse to the trews over this.

Dont get me wrong I was mad at the appointment but now iv calmed am happy to give him a opportunity and support him as i did moniz til he failed.

But yea people who have been sending those kind of threats to the Trews are scum of the earth human beings who deserve to be locked up sorry I had to say that anyone feel free to tell me off about that at will

I don't think you need apologise to anyone for saying that.  It makes you wonder how these people operate, the internet is a wonderful thing but it does give low-lifes the opportunity to act hard from the anonymity of their keyboard.  It's a game of football ffs, I get really involved in it for 90 minutes but by the time I've driven home I've worked out that there are more important things in life.

Unless we've won of course, then I admit to pretending it's really important for a few pints longer!

@Elite_pie I can agree with that few pints before the game tho ???? if we beat stags it may be 4 or 5 pints 

The BBC stated it's until 2018, so it would seem it's a two year deal not three.

That said, I really don't know as I haven't noticed it mentioned elsewhere and we all know that the media can get things wrong.

If/when it all goes pear-shaped the compensation will be coming out of the chairman's pocket, not mine.

Why are we assuming we'll be playing hoofball? Effective football could just mean tightening up the defence and getting the midfield to support the back four more. The proof of the pudding will be in the eating.
