I hope he stays. If he gets anywhere near the levels he did with Boro, then he will be a real assett. I think he will flourish in this system. We will struggle to find a better replacement if he does leave.
No one on here knows if Giles wants to be here or not. But the rumor is out there so people are looking for reasons/actions to say he wants out. I'll give the lad the benefit of the doubt while he's here.

Coyle himself didn't celebrate. Would appear Giles and Coyle were on exactly the same wave length i.e. let's crack on and win this one.
An example of it’s not where you start but how you end up….this is Less vegas in 1947, hopefully it won’t take city 77 years to complete the squad lol
Hacken have got a tough draw against Heidenheim in the conference league, that finishes the day before the window closes. I wonder if they're trying to keep hold of him until then
I reckon it's because those at boardroom level will be questioning Tim. In the 8/9 games under him, we look really poor and yes the squad is lacking depth, the XI really isn't that bad, there should be enough to get by. There are some decent Championship players in there. If you take the blind optimism away, we look really bad, defensively we look hopeless and we still struggle to create chances in the final third and the attacking play is quite one-dimensional. A lot of the players we have, simply can't play how he wants to. That was a very poor Plymouth team, we just about scraped a point, we lost to Wednesday's B team and Bristol weren't great either but they should've had a hatful. I think Travers makes a lot more sense medium/long term (not for £3m though). Stick a ball player next to him and you've got a really good midfield at this level, it would suit Burns.
We are short of leaders and Travis is a leader. Honestly, Jones is a good lad but vice captain? Don't know about the German fella.
I did wonder why we'd stopped passing it sideways and backwards at the back. Just felt a bit embarrassed to say anything. Left it too long.
Having watched the Plymouth game back. The one thing we didn’t struggle to do is create chances. It was the quality taking them that’s the issue. Most of our defensive issues seems to be of our own doing. Losing the ball in our own third. Easier said than done but a tidy that up and I think we’d be better off defensively. A lot of it was stemming from Pandur’s poor distribution some of it I think due to the system needed bedding in with these rotations
