It’s good to have the right people around the club, but they’ve got to have a job. If Carey was brought back, someone would have to be sacked so his job could be given to Carey, or a new job would have to be created. You can’t just keep creating new jobs for ex players or you’ll end up with a crazy bloated structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He limped along to the appearance record, seemingly a plan by the club to garner good publicity, and implemented by Cotts (perhaps against his better judgement) through short substitute appearances. There was an inescapable impression at the time that the club were determined he would take the record whether he truly deserved it or not. That's never sat well with me - Carey really should have been released at least a season before imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gasbuster Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 36 minutes ago, Phileas Fogg said: 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. Possibly Gary Johnson to an extent after he was sacked but not as comprehensive as that. It pretty much confirms what most of us know anyway; and that is that CH is a very well respected in the football world, and a thoroughly decent man.

He comes across very well in that CV Stories video - worth a watch if you have a spare 20 mins. He has a fairly unique measured calmness but also confidence. Out of the managers since I've been watching regularly (Johnson SR, Coppell, Millen, McInnes, Cotterill, Johnson JR) - Hughton seems the most measured and genuine. I think he's the sort of man Lansdown will warm to and respect. His track record and experience means he knows what will be required and hopefully Ashton and Lansdown will listen to him if he wants changes. Cotterill was probably too abrasive and Johnson JR's relationship with the Lansdowns might have made it more difficult to raise problems and grievances. On paper Hughton looks like a really sensible appointment. Someone to level the club up and an excellent fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still in doubt as to whether SL will take on someone as accomplished and experienced as Hughton, who didn't get his successes without being insistent on what he needed. Will SL defer to him and finally acknowledge that he must leave the football to those who know far more? I truly hope so. But as a character one cannot see how SL could have the slightest objection to the man. Really hope this works out. It would be a major step forward for BCFC and SL.

maxjak Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Really hoping that CH can solve the enigmatic conundrum that is Kasey Palmer.

But it was definitely the right decision. Harry Dolman backed him in almost everything. Over-familiarity, parochialism, West Country tribalism, call it what you will and you can add Nepotism as well under SL. All of this has to stop if we want to be where we should be.
