    He gets my full backing, the same as any new manager.

    Well, he wouldn't have been my pick. And I think we should have gone for a manger eith more gravitas

    But, as with Jones, I will give him a chance and he has my full support.

    It says a lot about how left field I thought Sport Republic might go that I’m so mightily relieved that the new manager has coached at this level before. <laugh>

    So that’s Mowbray and Martin (TBC) coming in straight after the Liverpool game. And Wilcox already involved, albeit at a distance until June.

    Getting prepared early is paramount. The league season begins in just 11 weeks.

    Good appointment. Did a good job at Swansea with limited resources. Knows what it takes to win but also to play a certain way and to work with young players.

    Grimes and Piroe would be top of the list to join him

    Fingers crossed.

    Oh, and he's less of a bell-end than Jones too.

    Hey, maybe we can get a swap going with Mo El, he scored a hat-trick in South Wales didn't he?

    Fair enough comment but I hate to meet anyone who is more of a bellend if I'm being truthful.

    Well hopefully that assistant manager won't be coming along - we don't need a blabbermouth.
