Managed Bristol City a few years back? Name rings a bell as a manager. He was a winger in his playing days I think.
A defender. Thought initially he might have crossed paths with Dublin at Stoke, but they were a couple of seasons apart there so not the case. Not a particularly impressive background, and certainly not somebody you'd appoint thinking he'd be your man should the Jak fail! Maybe, hopefully, a good assistant coach though (rather than a No 1), who knows. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Holden
Ah yes, I've confused him with Rick Holden. Not sure what his credentials to be a Number 1 have to do with it. He's joining the coaching staff.
Don't worry, it's easily done I was getting very excited about the news and then realised I had confused him with Amanda Holden
Probably, then it'll be a race to see who can embarrass themselves fastest and asked for free travel. That's the parents fault that, not the kids.
Tbh, re. the 2nd part, that's been said before in recent times! Dublin and Hodges have to deliver the players needed this time, finally. I liked his straightforwardness, including that he didn't claim he had some secret or special philosophy.
