Pennock to join the first team coaching staff

Looks like Stan Ternent has resisted the call from SB to go to Villa Park.
Can't think why.

 

Hats off to Ehab for keeping him here. Working for the Allams must have been too hard for him to turn down.

 

Well, he is seventy now, maybe happy to see his time out here and not have to move again.

 

Wouldn't have thought he lived locally.

 

its probably a rolling contract.
dependant on if we stay up.

 

I've never seen any reference to it being a rolling contract.

 

me either to be honest

 

...well then why did you say it was "probably" a rolling contract ffs?!

 

Being a totally dense twat who consistently spouts rubbish is the likeliest explanation.

 

Wish him all the best and hope he does well.

 

Just to the end of the season, I wonder if he has got assurances of going back to the academy if Phelan doesn't carry on after the end of this season and a new manager comes in?

 

Don't be daft John, no one at City would be that sensible.

 

It's not right that it's considered a promotion. The academy should be a major role, well paid if necessary, not a stepping stone.
