glynriley Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Given the Spurs job. Bit of a gamble but good to see a young(ish) English coach given a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddlesdown red Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Lack of good available candidates played into his hands. Van gaal and van de boer sounded out and both happy in holland. Good luck to him was a breath of fresh air with recent media interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpaul Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I wonder what the Keyboard warriors on OTIB would've made of this appointment had he been appointed manager of BCFC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Fair play to Spurs, will be interesting to see what kind of financial backing he gets in January and the summer considering how much AVB spent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Rick Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 He's turned down Swindon more than once. And I thought he was joking about waiting for the Spurs role. Had a 'cushty' role before with the Spurs youth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 plus it wasn't avb that spent it - its their sporting director making the calls, and theyve gone for someone inexperienced who will play who he is told to play It was his decision to play one up front and boring negative football.

Who Are Rovers? Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 He's got a good platform and a lot he can build on at Spurs, with the players he has there, can only see them going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
