It's a wonder nobody has mention Matt Henney.

Might be a cheap option but not perhaps the best!

You might well be right though its not something I've heard of on my planet. Seems strange we played them in a pre-season friendly. Did he not have any say in it ?

A lot of people seem to have Henney at the back of their mind, but I'd suspect most thing that he's not experienced enough yet.

One for the future, I'd have thought.

It's alright having a new manager but according to Bayliss the budget for this season has already been spent and we know most of the squad are not good enough for this level. A manager from the Evostick and below, well, enough said.

A new manager often means better morale, at least for a while.

Give the players a chance to prove it wasn't them and see how we get on :) I don't see the need to follow negativity with negativity - we probably can't do much about the players anyway.

According to my Stalybridge mate, Jim Harvey would be a terrible signing as manger.
He says
He is that bad.. We lost a lot of good players coz he fell out with them! He barks orders and was playing ppl out of position to see how it works.. He sold one player, who was already at the club when he arrived and he took all the credit

Neither were Dave Bayliss & Darren Sheridan when they took over from Phil Wilson - at around the same stage of the season and us being in a similar league position - but they still got us promoted.

I'm not saying that Matt Henney should be considered; equally he shouldn't be ruled out on footballing grounds, but his day job may prevent him wanting to be a serious applicant for the job.

For what it's worth (probably very little) - Neil Doherty. Lots of positives - local, passionate, developing youth, etc (and I still have a little crush on him after all these years ...) :scarf:

Not true. The club has a monthly playing budget which any future manager can use how he sees fit.

BK on RC just before said they'd already had a couple of applications and would be taking their time to consider anyone that puts themselves forward. Also said that Meechan was a very ambitious young man, indicating he would be interested.

What about Gavin Skelton as player-manager? Apparently before he left he said that if the job ever came up he would be interested. That could be a cracking appointment.
