He may well bring in who he wants, only problem with a manager bringing in all his own staff is if it goes wrong it costs a lot more money to get rid of them all
Also listening to Dodds and how he operated as interim head coach he just comes off as a massive loser, just the vibes I get. The whole mentality at the club has dropped significantly and the standards were in the gutter

I personally think they aren't as good as people are saying they are and we need their influence gone tactics wise. The squad could really do with a clean slate and something new
If Still is head coach, they won't have final say on tactics. I think there's very little evidence to say that they aren't good coaches but the fact that they were entrusted with running the first team (even if they weren't particularly up to it) would suggest that their coaching was considered good enough, within the club, to hold that role temporarily.
 
I doubt it personally, the article was based off of a lot of "COULD not be completed" when Still posted on Instagram the other week that he was already on his last week of the course.
It wasn’t, it was the last of the required licenses he needs to do to pretty much manage in europes big leagues, it does take a few weeks to complete, that was him beginning

Could have sworn he said it was his last week, even if so he started the last block, that article suggests he might not have it completed in 3 years time
 
I mostly agree. However, if the club were to say to Still "we have this/these coach/es who have very good reputations, who have worked with the first team and know the club inside out. We think they are an asset and we'd like them to remain involved for the sake of continuity" and he turned them down flat, I think that would indicate a lack of willingness to work with the club (and possible an element of arrogance and/or cowardice).

I keep seeing people suggesting that appointing Still means that the club are being more 'flexible'. Aside from the fact that I don't believe that the club are as rigid as people have made out, I think it would be unhealthy for Still to completely dictate how things are run.
I keep thinking this, surely it is in Still's (or whoever the next head coach is) interest to keep Dodds and Proctor in situ, at least initially, to see what they're like, assess their abilities and their compatibility with Still's own vision. For all he knows they could be the best, most ideologically aligned, coaches he could work with.

If it's not the case and they don't fit what he wants then they can arrange for them to move on. I just don't see how it's in anyone's interest for them to be out before the new man comes in unless the coaching team would otherwise be too bloated.

EXC: Understand Will Still is one of the candidates spoken with by Norwich City to become the new Head Coach.

He’s been at the Lotus Training Centre earlier this week.
