I wont knock the clubs ambition if they get Still. He certainly has a burgeoning reputation and it would be a statement to get him. Whether he is as good as the reputation time will tell, but they seem to have an identity in terms of what they want and he probably fits that. Hopefully the players get wind of this and are really at it tonight to show the new boss what they are about.
Will Still could have flown into Newcastle with Kyril Louis-Dreyfus and be at the Stadium of Light tonight (Total Sport)
Would be something else if he was. Probably getting ahead of ourselves, but fingers crossed he is the man.
I will say this, it has to be someone like Will Still. An ambitious appointment who would likely be seen as a bold move from us. Mowbray was a safe pair of hands, so replacing him with someone like Heckingbottam or Eustace just wouldn’t make sense. I’d have thought either Still or Hellberg - and Hellberg has apparently gone elsewhere. I think it’s either Still or Dodds.
Certainly seems it. Very ambitious first choice and hopefully one we can get over the line. I reckon Hellberg was back up, but didn’t want to wait around. Fair play.
probably just me atm but there is summit about still that i do not like...i will give him every bit of support i have given most managers/coaches and he may well win me over, it is just 'one of those things' and i honestly cannot put my finger on it. also, if he is having a few problems over transfers with his current club then he must be getting some fairly solid assurances off KLD.
