Cotham Brow Red Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Who is it Buckle and Trollope? (Buckle & Trollope - sounds like the gas soliciters dealing with there UWE project) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotham Brow Red Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 be a good job for louis carey Love Louis but think hes defo in the Kieth Millen assistant or coach bracket rather than gaffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richwwtk Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Love Louis but think hes defo in the Kieth Millen assistant or coach bracket rather than gaffer. Great player for us, but I don't think he'd even be that. I can't see him doing more for anyone than filling the role that Jody Morris did for McInness, and that worked out really well.

'Orns Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 It's Buckle. Never had a lot of love for Cheltenham, but a bit of a soft spot for them now, giving a job to someone who played their part in the downturn at the G*s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid in the Riot Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Ooh. Bad luck Chelts! Would be funny to see Buckle have massive success at Cheltenham after being hounded out of the rugby ground Buckle did very well at Luton and Torquay, Roverzzz are his only blemish. The Chelts Chairman said he discarded Buckle's time at Roverzzz after talking to Higgs about it on the phone - read into that what you may...!

He has an ego that makes Gary Johnson look like a Buddhist monk. Still had a 45% win ratio there. A certain "ego" now seen at AG was very successful at Chelt. Horses for courses sometimes.

havanatopia Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 What happened to the other bloke? whatisface? sacked?.. last time i looked down in the lower echelons they were mid to uppers? Must be down on those uppers now then me thinks. Buckle certainly is a rather uninspiring choice even for the small Robins. I wish them luck.

pongo88 Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 He's had a strange management career. He got Torquay into league 2 from the conference and then the league 2 playoff final. Left them to join "a bigger club" - i e Bristol Rovers ha ha - and bought 15+ players. Was sacked and joined Luton who reached the conference playoff final. Left suddenly for personal reasons and was recently Technical Director at Metropolitan Oval in New York. They seem to be a big organisation, that specialises in developing young players, so he must have managed a good job interview. He only joined them in November 2013, so this move fits his profile on not staying anywhere too long. If Cheltenham are prepared to take a risk on someone who has initial success and then leaves suddenly he could be the right choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was at Torquay for quite a while, and was an initially a hero there and achieved success, but they kept losing key staff and players. And everyone who left said the equivalent of "I can't work with that ****" Apparently he has the people skills of Atilla the Hun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 Reject gas, I feel really sorry for anyone connected with Cheltenham. I must admit whilst every sag was criticising him I actually phoned up Radio Bristol and told them what a wonderful job he was doing!

The personal reasons were due to the fact he's married to someone in the media who got a dream job in the States, can't remember her name. Guessing that CTFC was too good to turn down, presumably the missus is still over there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
