Good shout that pal. He’s done a cracking job. No idea if he has experience working with a really young squad like.
Ticks all the boxes Röhl began coaching at RB Leipzig, later working at Southampton,[4] Bayern Munich,[5] and as assistant manager of the German national team.[2][6] In October 2023, he was appointed manager of English club Sheffield Wednesday, becoming the youngest manager in the English Football League. Then I read he lost his first game against Watford. He wouldn’t survive here
Hope the fans give the next one a chance. Whether I wanted Beale or not, he never got a shred from a lot of fans. Including a large amount at his first game shouting for him to be sacked!!
Less impressive CV than Beale. So those that didn't like Beale's CV won't accept him. Hasn't got a north-east accent, so those that were offended by Beale's accent won't accept him. Better looking than Beale, so those that didn't like the way Beale looked may well love him.
Probably a best case scenario for Dodds, if he is keen to be manager that is, take over without interruption until the end of the season, expectations are hopeful rather than expectant at this point, snatch a top-6 finish and he'll win people over.
Will Will Still still have the buy out clause in his contract or does that run out at the end of the season?
What is it with this infatuation with Will Still?? He's achieved nothing, apart from making the sports pages for being a young English coach who was coaching abroad without qualifications. I just don't get his popularity at all!
Staggering tenure as manager. Isolated the players in 3 months. It looked like a car crash and its turned out exactly that way.
When Tony was sacked, I would have had Still. But purely on the basis that there is/was a big noise about him- I'd read and watched a variety of interviews with him/analyses of him. To get him, at that time, would have been a bit of a coup. It would have put the club in the window and generated a bit of excitement. In real terms though, he's less experienced than Beale. He's younger, not coached for as long, and only recently got the quals he needed. He'd probably be a bigger gamble than Beale.
