    The being an amazing coach and putting on the best coaching sessions ever! Was something that set alarm bells ringing about Beale when Speakman talked about him!

    Hopefully it isn't a weakness the new bloke has because all the rest is ****ing pointless if he is ****e tactically. Love to get a manager (not getting into calling him head coach) who not only sets up really well tactically depending on who we play but also can see when it's not working and change it during the 90 minutes. The second bit is probably the one you get less managers being good at!

    Your right mate

    For most of us,....if this is confirmed....the key to the announcement will be where Dodds and Proctor end up.

    Agree think this is the big transition from coach to manager I think this takes time if he’s any good he’ll reflect and learn from his mistakes. He seems a good character so I’m hopeful. Beale was never going to learn or adjust his tactics his response to criticism at both rangers and Sunderland was to just double down

    I very much doubt it, RTG is a tiny few hundred posters in among our near 40,000 regular fans, most of whom won't have a clue about these messages boards. Fans forums like RTG have a massively over inflated idea of their own importance I think, always pretending they speak for all the fans, when in reality they're mostly an annoying noise in the background.

    Not for me tbh.

    The key is the manager, his staff and what backing he gets ....

    ... Dodds and Proctor should fade into the background and do what the boss asks them to do.

    Yes,agree. Didn't mean to mislead....my post didn't properly express my thoughts in that,if RLB brings his own people,where does that leave Dodds and Proctor.

    It's a natural reaction of the fanbase when a club gets relegated that they want rid of the manager, DOF and sometimes the board, without actually analysing why they got relegated. In Le Bris' case, the evidence points to selling their best players and not replacing them adequately, which is down to the DOF and the board imo.

    Agreed with that.
    Hopefully they aren't part of the 1st team set up.

    I agree with this. I think if a new coach comes in and gives his own ideas, the players need to be freed from the previous ideas,particularly as they didn't work.

    Absolutely. The nagging doubt is Speakman wants his unsackable boys on the inside reporting back to him. If they are out the picture fair do's and let's get behind the new HC. If not it will be more of the same imo.
