He played his career in the top flight winning trophys with spurs and playing in a World Cup . He’s established himself as a very good manager in his own right . People like Chris Hughton don’t go after easy pay days ffs . You obviously know him better than me. We all thought Steve Coppell was gonna work out well....

RedorDead BCFC Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I feel sorry for the board. We all sing about Kasey Palmer shagging our wife’s. The board think they are getting someone who will do it and we are not happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warwickshire Red Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 35 minutes ago, sludge said: Agreed. Trouble is we don't know if the likes of CH or MM are agreeable to the 'package' we're offering. Yes could be the package or conditions (including recruitment) under which the club is willing to operate may not be acceptable to some. Be a real shame to cut off our nose to spite our face. This is a great opportunity for SL to re-evaluate and tweak the model to maximise our chances for the best coach/manager available within our reach. if we can’t appoint CH or someone of similar experience now, shows we’re not nearly as ambitious as is made out and we’ll be back here again in another few years but may not be in as good a league position.

LondonBristolian Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 Terry would not be my choice by a long shot but I'm not that surprised he is being considered and, to be fair to him, he's done a stint learning as assistant before jumping in. I don't think it is, by any stretch, the most ridiculous appointment I have ever heard. He has more backroom experience than Lampard did when getting the Derby job, and I think more than Gerrard did when he got the Rangers job. I'd rather a manager with more managerial experience but I'm not surprised he is being linked with Championship jobs Would rather it was Birmingham than us though.

Admittedly on paper he looks a solid choice. I just find it interesting that you can get a manager like jose mourinho who not so long ago was 'guaranteed' to bring success, and then things don't quite go to plan for some reason.

Eddie Notgetinya Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I’m convinced JT will be announced as our manager on the 27th July. I’ve put my money where my mouth is aswell. I would have preferred a fair few others ahead of him so if I lose money I won’t be too arsed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 It's not going to be John Terry any more than it was ever going to be Gerrard for all sorts of reasons and it's a bit alarming how many fans thought either of them might be a good idea. Hoping for someone experienced like McCarthy or Hughton but expecting someone who will live with the "head coach" title like Lowe or Cook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 IF it's Terry, he gets my support as our Manager / head coach. He might be superb but we just don't know. Strange appointment if true as he's untried but, personal crap apart, he's had a fine paying career and hasn't jumped straight in as a no 1. Big gamble by Lansdown but, whoever leads our club will have my support (apart from Holloway and Pulis). 'John Terry's Bristol City'. Hmmm.

Quote Terry admitted using the word "black" and swearing at Ferdinand but insisted he had only been repeating words he thought the Rangers defender had accused him of saying. Black bastard was the phrase Anton Ferdinand said he had heard. Of course his defence is that he was repeating stuff. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/19723020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visitingholte Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 As a Villa fan, I can try to give some insight as to JT. But i still don't know how much influence he has & what he does in his coaching capacity. If he works with the defense, he has been doing a pretty poor job with all the goals we have conceded this year. Definitely see him wanting to get into management in the future, but I wouldn't want to be the club to give him the shot at management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrard might one day be a good manager but managing Rangers to second in the non league is no achievement at all and being a great player is irrelevant to managing. I expect it wasnt alarming for Rangers because as the second medium size fish on a tiny bowl of tiddlers they'd be nailed on second even with Daryll the dog fiddler in charge.
