Not sure he'd be keen to work at City tho Soton and back every day is hardly ideal I must say. That’s a lot of time lost. Is he still a bit eggy about city?

Red Exile Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 2 hours ago, Top Robin said: FFS why do we keep wanting old players back as coaches and backroom staff......we need a totally fresh bunch with no old ties to the club ... Agreed. And I would imagine that is what SL thinks as well, he's always been perfectly happy to leave it to supporters groups to pay attention to the club's 'heritage', it's not something I've noticed him taking much personal interest in - as evidence I'd offer the attitude to the 'Ashton Gate 8'. And I understand that. What SL wants is a modern, successful club, unencumbered by the past. I've heard him say as much. LJ was a diversion. To me it was almost inexplicable. If we appoint Hughton it points us in the same strategic direction as that of a club that will demolish large parts of its traditional home and build a new future. I don't see much place for misty eyed sentiment, or for players associated with an unsuccessful past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Should Chris Houghton join City ads manager, he will be joining all "them" Londoners (born within M25 ring)who have all achieved promotion since I began my support of City.

Most calling us City too! That's very impressive, rare to see a manager who receives almost unanimous goodwill on a forum like that. Even those with reservations also wish him well. I don't think we've had a manager who'd receive that on this forum. Alan Dicks is pre-forum era and before my time.

Seems a bit odd to me The only event that makes me think that there was a problem with Carey is the way that McInnes brought him on as a sub, about one minute before the end of a match to achieve the appearance record. Then did not pick him in the match day squad for the rest of the season. I have no proof but it was obvious to me that there were problems like a split dressing room.
