Impossible for most of us to have an accurate view given we don't know what goes on in the club. Having said that, in my view most likely he is a good man working hard in difficult circumstances1

We seem to judge people at our club too much on personality rather than results. The great bloke line used to get rolled out in defence of Phil Parkinson week in week out. (Contrary to what pretty much every player on the Undr the Cosh podcast has to say about him).
Same has happened with the current owner.
Perhaps that's in part why we're where we are. Suckers for a smile and a cosy chat instead of objectively viewing delivery of actions.
I think if Gallen was less affable his success/ value in his role would come under greater scrutiny. Albeit with the obvious caveat that he works within a seeming continuum of utter basket case, clown shod frameworks.

If Gallen was less affable TS would have got rid of him by now.0

Not Cawley but QPR link now on SLP website.

Saw him at New Eltham Station Thursday night. He got the 5.10 to London Bridge. Got the jubilee line with him as far as Bond Street...0

Ok , he’d spotted you and you had to back off. Fair enough29
-
I should be clear. I spotted him on the platform at New Eltham and thought nothing of it. Was in a completely different part of the train to be near the exits at London Bridge. It was only when he got on the tube carriage that I thought it was a werid coincidence1
-
Maybe he was following you , so you done well to drop him the shoulder , glad you’re safe21

The steps these scouts take to recruit new talent!.4

Can you play fullback cants? How's the left peg?6

And that window was a shambles, but obviously mainly because of the Southall stuff, but since then we've had several below-par windows. This recent one has probably been our least bad, as in no real duds, but there's also no incredible bits of recruitment (apart from JRS on loan, obvs)
Not sure Martin Sandegaard is up to it. I'm not sure he could pull off the cardigan at a training ground look either.
If Gallen is off, I'll appreciate the good squads he put together, but he also put together some incredibly lopsided ones.0 -
Seems strange that so far our recruitment this summer without MS and TS seems really good and joined up with how the manager wants.Almost like Gallen is good at his job if left to get on with it.20

I think the truth is that we never really knew how good Gallen was or wasn't. I think most wanted him to be good as he was a straight talker, but he never really had full opportunity2

Is Gallen staying? Is he possibly going to Qpr? It seems to have gone quiet on that lately.
Just to clarify his Tube travel arrangements. I understand that he lives in Shepherds Bush so the journey quoted fits in with that.0 -
I think SG has a pretty good reputation within the game and given the shitshows he’s had to work under I’m amazed he’s been with us as long as he has. If there’s legs in Andy Scott returning which I’d assume is likely then I think it’s nailed on that SG will move on. QPR would probably be the perfect fit for him. If he goes I wish him every success.3
-
I'm pretty confident Gallen will be going.1
-
Agree I think he’ll go but I’m surprised that we haven’t heard anything about Scott returning. What’s he doing now ?0
