I know absolutely nothing about all these silly rumours about players falling out etc., but I did here the name Rob Kelly shouting out something during the Blackpool game but for which team I have no Idea, lets keep these forums sensible.

Checked the highlights, sounds like he’s shouting at Dior angus to go after the ball, nothing wrong with a bit of motivational vocal support. That’s the thing about no fans now, you can hear things much clearer

Presumably the club will just announce all the back room staff at once when there all in place

I wonder if Rob Kelly is helping out without a contract in case something better comes along and he is free to move?

Surely not.....I’d be looking elsewhere if I was DD and not being held to ransom by someone like this. He’s either in or out either or!

Is this Rob Kelly appointment official now as I don't recall seeing it announced? Also, who else is in his management team, Do we have an analyst?

We are one week away from season kick off and I have no idea who is in his management team. (Quite possible ive missed it being announced)

I've not seen any announcement which is worrying considering the season starts next week

Why does it make such a difference tp people knowing "officially" that he is assistant manager?

If there are reasons, that are private, perhaps between individuals and perhaps other clubs, that it hasnt been officially anounced yet then we just have to wait for that announcement.

He is assistant for gods sakes not the manager. Does it really matter that much to you that you don't know the names of all the backroom staff?

Getting Rob Kelly in is a bit of a coup. Worth shouting about for mine.

As it seems strange we haven't announced who are assistant manager is yet is only professional to do so

As I said, perhaps there are good reasons? :roll:

But if its Rob Kelly then he isn't under contract anywhere else as he left his previous role so why not announce it unless it isn't him but hasn't he been involved in pre season

He was released early from his previous contract though he wasnt a free agent.

MAYBE, just maybe there is something related to that release that has delayed an official announcement???

I thought it was a perfectly reasonable question to be honest and slightly surprised at your curt response.

Im just about done with this forum. Don't ask, don't question, if you do ask, you have no right to know, if you do question, you’re moaning, you don't appreciate something. I’ll end by saying it makes absolutely no difference to me at all, just that i had not seen anything announced.
