The Gaffer

The Gaffer

He's the dogs bollocks and he's not going anywhere, he's got a lot of work to do here and he's enjoying it.

P.S. Raefil quoting from the Daily Mail is bloody fantastic 😉

Whilst I don't think he's going anywhere, like under Grayson I feel the team is always ready should a new manager comes in. I think that's been the Ridsdale way, bring in Managers that will always work for the future and build on what is here. Ok Westley was a dick and didn't work out well, but you can see why the chose him and he did help the club, then Grayson was able to build and left us in better shape, ready for the next Manager. Neil is doing exactly the same. Should he go, we will ready and probably attract a better manager.

I had my worries when Ridsdale cam here, but he and Hemmings have been a great team. No rush, no pressure, just slowly build and the club is moving forward. Ridsdale is showing that the other Managers Prem rush was the issue. Who can't spend money thats given to them, here they not doing that. I think Neil buys into this, he knows there is no rush and without pressure he is enjoying it. It's going to take a massive money offer to temp Neil away. Grayson had that and paid the price.

I am not confident on us going up next season, but I doubt we will go down and that we are heading towards that Prem dream. maybe 2 seasons away.

What I want to see is the club sort out the scoring issue and get depth at the back so we don't fall victim to injuries again. Just think if we didn't have that bad spell of Injuries, we'd could of been celebrating promotion today.
 
We’ve got one of the best managers in the league, hands down.

And we got him got him for free. Contrast that with Sunderland who have got through two managers this season both of whom presumably cost them hefty compensation payments when they sacked them and they still got relegated. You do wonder if anyone in the boardroom up there has asked themselves why they did not go for AN instead of SG. Oddly now that they are in Div1 SG would probably be a good manager for them but their problems are not our concern.

I disagree, living up here their problems amuse me no end 🙂
