    Have Stockport lost a lot of players this summer? They’re currently 19th in L2 after finishing 4th last season, one place off 3rd which would have meant two consecutive promotions.

    Apparently massively plagued by injuries at the moment. I haven’t fact checked it but one of their fans said in his last 12 seasons as a manager he’s only failed to make playoffs/get promoted once. He does also have a great win ratio wherever he has been

    Sad really.

    Is this what we have come too ?  No disrespect to any of the teams or their fans but interviewing managers at Stockport & Northampton is not my idea of success.

    SE7 Partners have been in charge for 6 weeks & things are starting to unravel already.

    Utter shambles.
    I disagree. These are exactly the type of up and coming managers we should be looking at.

    Fresh ideas, know the !ower leagues scouting for bargains and a defined system of play.

    Far better than reverting back to Bowyer, Powell etc. Happy for Atherton too tbh 
    Fingers crossed he’s more successful than Garner if he’s our new manager

    Up and coming managers from L2 like Ben Garner went well #justsaying.
    NB Brady is 48 & Challinor 47.

    Whatever happened to supporting your team through thin and thinner 🙄
    Harder and harder to do when the owners treat fans with such disregard.

    I know it doesn’t mean much, but Cowley dropped from 3/1 to 10/11 overnight 
    He'll fail the medical.

    Reportedly done?

    Where?  These accounts using the word “reported” when it’s never reported anywhere.

    Just hope Challinor or whoever can bring their backroom staff with them too.

    Holden | Garner | Adkins... None of them have been able to select their own staff.

    Who is leaking the message that managers in work like Ferguson, DC and Jon Brady are in the frame?
    Presumably not coming from their clubs, who wouldn’t want to knowingly unsettle the manager.

    Would think he can with Senda and GK coach already paid off. Hayes might stick around you probably do want some continuity and someone who knows the squad well

    If it is done and it’s Challinor I still think they should announce today and get him in the dugout on Saturday. It’s a free hit against a really poor side, if we don’t win then he hasn’t been there long enough, if we do win he’s off to a great start 
    That's what Fleetwood are saying  :)  
  • Will Challinor bring Will Collar with him, the midfielder who played very well against us last season in the cup !? Scored too

    Let's be honest there will be fault to be found with any appointment. Too dull, too inexperienced, wrong formation, been around too long, not been around long enough, has baggage...etc.
    I think this is due to none of us being excited by a new manager coming in given the current state of the club and how the new owners have gone about business so far. It's not a situation we wanted to be in at this point in the season so our approach to it as a fan base is bound to be negative and we are going to question the decision regardless.
    I think it's good that we appear to be casting the net wide and some of the names mentioned are at least prompting some thought and discussion.
    I don't want Powell or Bowyer back - it's not a personal thing I just think they are worth more than walking into a mess and potentially failing. If I'm going to get frustrated and angry on a weekly basis I'd rather vent it towards a stranger than either of those two.

    Nobody really knows if this will be a successful hire or not but other then CP, on paper Challinor seems the best from who we have been linked with.

    Agreed, though not so much for Garner who brought Scott Marshall with him

    You are sticking your neck out with that double.
    And it's Dave Challinor 🙄

    well i've fully supported all previous appointments only to end up with the hump and wanting them to do one so this time round i'm going to start off disliking whoever the arsehole is in the hope of being won over

    Wouldn’t mind Challinor. We can’t get much fucking worse than we are now, so he’ll probably be alright.
