    The photo actually looks the most like Edward Still, Will Still’s other brother, also in football, as opposed to Will Still’s assistant, his brother Nicolas Still.

    Thats going to sound like I’m on a wind-up.

    mate i know what they have invested in, just some on here bite to quick.
    What they did CM and SD went wrong, I can move on with that fact. others cant and keep dragging it up, sad but never mind.

    I’m not going to pretend that I think Still is a master coach and Beale isn’t. It’s all a gamble and I wouldn’t want to pretend I’m a clever ****e

    Never said he was. Just that Still is a long way from most raved about young coach in Europe.

    CM and SD are disrespectful opportunists who disrespected not only the club but the region. I hope the slimy self interested ****ers never set foot in the region again.

    Never would have had him, even after Leeds which was impressive. He is a massive cog in our wheel, be mad to take it out. He is also some years away from being able to handle the top job, in my opinion. His Brum days dont lend themselves to it.

    This whole thing is gold. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Might be the most entertaining thing since Keane was taking the reigns and that lad disappeared over night after saying Michael Kennedy was in some way involved in keane's decision process before being quickly reminded that he had died some years ago...funniest day I've had on this forum by a distance. Mikki Disco was in fine fettle...had me in stitches.

    Then why was Alonso brought into the discussion? Alonso has been managed by a stellar lineup of managers and won the lot.

    Still has had to make it into the game off his own back.

    Personally just want a coach to bring a playstyle I enjoy, like last season. Everything I have seen from Beale from the data to the video just isn't what I want and I think it's just a continuation of the slow pedestrian football we have played all season. For me, if Beale is to be a success here he has to do things completely different to how he has previously

    Dodds has done an excellent job since he came in but I don't see him as the head man yet.
    We have a very good talented squad of players. But I think they are in need of some fresh ideas.
    Play good football and pass the ball well but we need to move up a level.
    Think we need a new man in with a few new ideas. Will not take much.
    However I have no idea who that should be.

    He might well be better but any person suggesting they ‘know’ is too far up their own arse. Nobody knows who will be best, it’s right that it’s a judgment made by professionals who do know better because of the information and connections they have access to. They also may get it wrong but just because someone has a friend in the club or knows a rangers or QPR fan does mean they have the right to savage the club who are selecting someone out of what they believe best interest and have a history more credible than an amateur uefa b coach or physio . Every coach will be a risk and will also cost money. Trust the club, we’re improving.

    I mean Alonso was always gonna be a good coach because of his aura and persona, but **** me you seen the squad he’s got?

    My ball bag could have that squad winning games.

    I replied to a poster who said Still is the most ravee about young manager in Europe. I said he wasnt, and used Alonso as an example of someone more highly regarded. There are several others I could have suggested to be honest.

    Absolutely. But if he's the most raved about manager in Europe I would have thought me, or one of one of my mates, would have heard the name before.

    He is a futsal lover mate. That is the quickest version of the game there is. There are a group of young british coaches pushing that in this country. I would wager he has more varied outlooks on how to play than every other coach we have been linkee with.
