He comes across as very measured, intelligent and a well balanced approach to everything in both football and life generally 

He talks very well and obviously knows the football industry both positive & negative elements 

I find him quite interesting to listen to and easy to take on board what he says 

Having listened to a number (about a dozen) of his post-match interviews from Oxford, which I found him a bit “samey”, I thought he came across as enthused tonight.

Wish Saturday would hurry up!

Hopefully his time with the squad will transpire to a good performance on Saturday

It may sound silly, but in a game of small margins I don’t think Liams demeanour will do him any favours (and again I’d note that what he is like with the players will be different to how he projects to the fans).

If you read any Oxfords fans views the consensus is that he is relatively dispassionate in interviews and gives little away. It certainly won’t be “box office” like Nige, and although he wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea, he was a character who many warmed to. 
 

I don’t want to rake over the circumstances of his appointment again, but it is a fact that he’s not coming in with a lot of “new manager currency”. A relatively dour interview style won’t be something that galvanises and gets fans onside - and I think he needs that positive on the pitch start all the more in view of that.

Perhaps a Joey Barton like character would be more to your liking for our Head coach?

10/10 entertainment value but crap as a coach

Was a good move from Ed to ask him about his personal life and career, seemed to liven/open up a fair bit more after that.

Let’s hope someone gets on there and challenges him. 

Cheer up fella, we need to move on.  The king is dead, long live the king and all that. Get off the old bus, all aboard the new bus.

We can deal with the Lansdowns some other time.

He comes across as lee johnson without all the BS to me, very humble and keen to play things down......I guess we will wait and see how results go before we know if there is a Manning BS filter to apply too :D

I thought that a bit, philosophies and POMOs replaced with principles and behaviours.
