Question Should we stick with Phil Brown?

[FarmdogSUFC]

Simple question really. Should we stick with Phil Brown for next season regardless of what division we're in if he's willing to stay?

We don't need to answer for 6 weeks. If we are still in L2 then why not but I can't see it in the NL.

 

[meerkat54]

Yes stick with PB, don't want anymore of these unknown keyboard nerds.

 

[TJC]

I suspect we will as 6 games is not really enough time for him to have an impact. I guess Ron is just keeping his options open come end of the season. Can't afford more payouts.
Also depends on if Browns ego will allow him to manage a non league side

Ron often goes on about stability and on the recent zoom meeting he again reiterated his desire for a stable management team.

My guess is, PB will be around for a while now

It may rather be a case of whether Phil Brown sticks with us!

I can't really see phill brown sticking around if we go down.

 

[Shrimper]

No

 

[Dave Smiths Love Child]

Finances will dictate, I think Brown loves being in football and limelight, and he doesnt care where he manages as long as he is involved in the game
Now whether he and Ron get along who knows, the last zoom meeting, I got the impression Ron blamed Phil for many things and backed MM, then we realise how much was Bull****.

Decent manager, nothing special, but considering where we are and where we may be in 7 weeks time, we could do far worse

Would be very concerned if Brown is in charge of recruitment for the summer. There's only so far the Rothman's Football Yearbook of 2008 will go in 2021.

PB is probably as good as we will get in our current situation. It is very unlikely that any other EFL club would employ him. His last job was with an obscure club in India. He is unlikely to find a job any better than the one he has here.

I think PB and Ron are a bit like an old married couple. They bicker but ultimately know each other walts and all. it worked for 5 years, both sides have not found the grass greener since, and so i would not be surprised to see PB here next year in whatever league. Would he manage another club in the NL almost certainly not.

Quite understandable that for now its to the end of the season. First, its the matter in hand and needs 100% focus. Two until we know what division we are playing in too much of the conversation can't take place in terms of staff, budgets, players etc.

Why? He won’t get a job in the EFL.

 

[andyt63]

Should follow FGR's example and appoint a female manager. Time to be bold!

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

I think he would be good for us. As long as he does not sign any more 400 year old crocks. I hope he has learnt from that.

 

[sufc4life21]

True, but just can't really see brown wanting to manage in the National league.

 

[GrumpyBlue]

No

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Thank you.............but no! Been there, done it...........look forwards rather than backwards. An even stronger no if we are relegated. We need someone with experience of the National League and who has done well at that level.

Mark Molesley?

 

[Rob1920]

I think it will depend how how much RM gives him to spend. One of the reasons we're where we are is because RM indulged PB last time with the likes of Cox, Kightly & so on. I can't see PB wanting to stick around if Ron tells him he'll have no money to spend.

 

[Streaky]

I guess its known what we would all get from Phil Brown, some good some not so. If we are doing well in the conf & a (northern) Lg1 or 2 team were interested we all know he'll be off in a shot. Not sure how much he knows about the Conference & if he could attract the players needed at that level.



On a different thread the name Mark Cooper came up (promoted FGR & harshly given the boot) and he has some decent stats at conf level..

I think we'll have options whatever league we are in
