CodeRed Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Lansdowns wordsIdeally you want someone who will fit in with everything we have built up over the past few years, because I firmly believe there is something good already in place here at Ashton Gate."People naturally react when things don't go well and look for scapegoats. But I feel we have worked towards something sustainable, although I recognise candidates for the job might want to bring people in with them as part of a package."And that means assessing on top of everything else whether you like the look of what comes along with the new man!"DEFINATELY WARDas I've said he won't take a risk - practically spells out Ward as only one who fits his wishlistwonder if you can still get a bet on Ward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NATCHER Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 "Over the weekend we have focused on the four or five applicants that we felt we ought to approach to see if they would be interested in the position."By these four or five being applicants, wouldn't this imply that they would be interested in the position?

Matty H Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 If it's Ward it'll have to be a number two of his choice or he'll throw his toys out of the pram and quit again.Ward again? No thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrocks Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 All this talk of number twos is very apt given our crappy start to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
