First Wizard 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Okay, I can just about understand Gunn and Chippy, but John Deeham? is that the same JD they sacked for failing at City?This surely is an emotional appointment at best, or a cynical ''get them off our case'' by the board at worse. Oh, and interviews started on Monday.............of course they did![:|] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blahblahblah 2 Posted January 21, 2009 No it''s not jobs for the boys, but as others have said, it''s probably last chance saloon. A bunch of successful old-timers brought back to revive the ailing fortunes of the team they love. I smell box office. Maybe they''re hoping to sell the film rights if all goes well.

Evil Monkey 52 Posted January 21, 2009 Given that many, many people have previously called for Chippy tobecome manager over the last few years, would people be having the samefits of hysterics if the appointments were the other way round? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Plastic Scouser 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Is it me or do most people complaining about this (or at the very least raising a quizzical eyebrow Roger Moore style) seem to forget that Chippy has been made 1st Team COACH. That means at the very least he will be responsible for the day to day training and tactics - with Gunny responsible for management...We''ve now got a complete team in place to run things, one which if they work to their particular skills, should bear fruit.I''m not particularly bowled over by the appointments but they do make sense - after all we were hardly going to get Mourinho were we (and even in that event Wiz would be highly critical!!!)

singing canary 0 Posted January 21, 2009 regardless of what people think , if they could be bothered to do some homework on theese guys, they would realise we actually stand a chance of doing well .i wanted roeder out from day one , i never have liked him , roeder is not thought highly of in many clubs.the new team we have here are commited to the cause , and have more experience between them than most .all good friends of which will make a good working enviroment.i really hope im right again , this is a winning formula. .. i hope.
