Certainly hope that's not true. Currently playing for his 14th club at the age of 30! Exactly the sort of player we should not be trying to sign!!

I thought John Rooney as player of the year was very fair. Imagine if we voted for someone as bad as Corbyn

I don't go on twitter or have an account

Sorry, I’ll rewrite that: Whoever told you that, needs to keep off those dodgy twitter accounts.

Just because in your opinion he didn't sound it, that doesn't mean he isn't.

Point taken it is merely my first impression.Remember him as player but they also don’t always make good managers sometimes still want to be one of the lads too nice to be objective..He will as everyone does make mistakes and it’s when pressure on he will need good back up.Nothing will give me pleasure more than to be proved wrong.

Agree with both points here. From listening to his interviews of his first managerial experience with Oldham it was very much a case of one of the lads one day, manager of them the next and I think he may have struggled with that. Those were my initial reservations at first, that he may have been too close to the playing side and didn't really want it., but Im looking at it differently now he is here, It 5 years ago now, plenty of experience later with Oldham and Blackpool and hopefully fully set on his management style and goals. He is also inheriting the core of a successful Championship winning side who I am certain can step up. Its there to develop now so a totally different scenario.

New signings initially have to be his management team. Lets see who he brings in there.
