Breaking News Official at last. PB signs up.

[Strykr]

Is it 2 or 3 years?. RM allegedly quoted a long term deal, which 2 years def isn't!.

Ron normally likes to blow 3 years of cash

 

[Tribal Chief]

Oh well, at least it's only a 2 year deal.

We'll need to tighten our belts again around January 2023 if we're not in the promotion mix.

However if we can appoint a CEO with a long term plan that can mitigate some of the damage.

With what will be one of the biggest budgets and inheriting a solid defence there can be no excuses.

He's not inheriting a 'solid defence'. He's inheriting a side that was set up to draw every game 0-0.

 

[Smudger]

Agree about Lennon and Acquah but I would keep Ralph if he is returning to fitness.

Wow....I don’t think we won a single game he played in and we shipped crappy goals for fun, often from crosses that he failed to stop. Talk about losing mentality, he lost so many times on the spin it’s probably damaged him as a player. He needs to go - this week will do. ?

Hi BBbl, I think it said 2 year contract, with a 1 year extension if promotion achieved in the first 2, or something similar.

"I’ve signed a two-year deal which is geared towards promotion and then it becomes a third year automatically, ........

It's 2 years.

That's long term for Ron who's not looking beyond when our funding gets further cut this time next year.

Not interested into getting in a debate over this, but i think the point 'Overseas Shrimper' was highlighting, was PB's comment about ' to get it back to where it was when i left'?.
At that time, we'd lost 7 out of our last 8 games, & were 2 pts above the relegation positions?.

Yes, that's fine,I don't want to get into a debat either. That said, I'd rather be 2 points above the relegation zone in LG 1 than now being in the NL. That's probably what PB meant and he's quite right, we were in a better place before he left.

If that happens, hope he signs for Grimsby!.

 

[overseas shrimper]

But we wasn't relegated under him, I'm not sure what your point is.

Because he was sacked. My point is that he didn't leave with us in as great a shape as he seems to remember.

Thank you. Glad you got my drift. Not sure why it was so difficult for him to understand.

 

[ItsMichaelBlack]

I wonder how we will approach the league in terms of tactics and setting the team out against the teams in NL. Would we be possession based ?

 

[Gridelet's contact lens]

There is no point being anything but positive and show strength, Be prepared to hammer the opposition 1-0 next season :)

 

[blueblueblue]

But we were a lg1 club, now we're a NL club, so we were in a better place under Brown before he left.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Made my feelings clear in a thread last week. I’m happy with this and I’m delighted it’s been done so swiftly after the conclusion of the season. We’ve already learnt from one mistake from last year

I think the club and the manager actually needed each other right now. We’re both on a rebuild

 

[IloveShrimp]

Clean sheet mentality here we come!

 

[Pak Power]

3-1 Sutton Utd now, wilson, scored a nice goal but had too much time, Woking are terrible, and if Sutton are top.....well.

Not sure I can watch this next season, it's dire, you might as well go to the park.

I would keep Macca for one more season, just to buy the amount of free kicks he's going to get, because every time one of them falls over the ref blows up

 

[palexander]

"I think he’s had enough of losing, he’s had enough of back-to-back relegations and quite simply he wants to get it back to where it was when I left."

An interesting one, this. When he left (was sacked), we were heading for relegation.

2 divisions above where we are now. Weird point to make…

 

[Shrimpet steve]

Next season is now looking much more promising! Phil is the manager we needed to turn this sinking ship around

Thank you, that was my point.

In that case, let's re-sign Anthony Grant as a priority.

I’d take that every week, who wouldn’t!?
