Jon wanted to tell me first! Dear Peter I am writing to let you know we have today appointed Sean O’Driscoll as our new head coach on a rolling contract. I am delighted Sean has opted to join us ahead of a number of other offers he has received recently. As a Board, we see in Sean someone with a track record of developing clubs longer term, as well as having a wealth of experience at this level, which will be vital in our fight for survival in the Championship. There’s no doubt this season has been a rocky ride for us, and we find ourselves in a difficult position. But, with 20 games to go, we still have the time and ability to get out of it I hope with this news, you and your fellow supporters will help us pull together as one club and show a unity and togetherness to give ourselves the best possible chance of survival between now and the final game of the season. Thanks for your support. Jon Lansdown Football Managing Director
If this is genuine - I have no knowledge of who you are "Massive" and how or why you would be told this by Jon Lansdown, then at least we will have someone who has a reputation for wanting his teams to play football rather than hoofball. I am also encouraged that he turned Forest around at the start of this season from the shambles under Cotterill and put them in the top ten in the Championship before their foreign owners gave him an undeserved sacking, at least that's how it looked from afar and without any inside knowledge of what was happening at Forest. There is still time to save us this season! PS; just went back to the City web site that I had left only ten minutes ago to see it is correct. Welcome Mr O'Driscoll and boa sorte = good luck
Nice one Massive and if you're really buddies with JL then tell him that it's a good appointment (hopefully!)
Excellent way to get fans back on side and personal names showing. Fantastic appointment. Best decision since GJ went.
All joking aside and well done massive for having your close friend Jon send you a personal e-mail. During this very difficult time for everyone at BCFC and in the seats I would encourage the board to keep the openess out in the open and never bury it again. We might not turn the corner immediately but a least we think we can see it from here.
I have never gone by the name Anthony, when I was having my vaceptomy my old man took me in for the op. when they called my name they used Anthony my old said that's funny son, someone else in here has the same surname
Yeah but not the balls to drive home after, Peter please tell me you have named one of your kids Meg Chris or Stewie
