No substance 😂 your as thick as mince Monkey if you think he’s doing a good job.
Thanks for your comment shame you don’t have an opinion but I guess you need a brain for that.

*You're

I have an opinion but you probably missed it as I haven't banged on about it every 5 minutes.
I'm sure it is a good release from the mundanity and frustrations of your life outside the message board though.

I know it's not your fault man, we all have to work with the cards we're dealt.

Hilarious, man, hahahahah, TBH I think everyone has frustrations at the moment, lockdown is not ideal.
You’re a Cobblers fan so I’m not going to lower myself by insulting you, I just found your comments a bit over the top, so I guess your comment above refers to you far me than me.

We are now stuck with the squad we have, barring any miracle free agents missed by the rest of the world.

Brady has as good, if not better chance of ogetting them to start firing than any journeyman manager we're likely to be able to get in. Let's get real, unless we prise someone who is currently hot away from the job they're in, like we kind of did with Wilder (and tbh I think that was our one moonshot, we won't ever get another) we will end up with another Curlio. Someone out of work because they were fired for failing somewhere else.

So why not give Brady til the end of the season? On all known form so far this season we're certs for the drop, so how bad can it get? He knows the players, he must have seen stuff that made him think "if I were in charge...." And he sounds infinitely more educated than Curlio in what he has planned.

I'm for giving him a go.

Agreed

That'll be embarrassing then if he doesn't get it...

why ?
as you would expect  , he will want some level of protection.
If it fails , he runs the risk of losing his job at the under 18s as well .
He may or may not also insist on his own team around him that he has appointed and trusts .
First things first - he needs a win and some goals but he would jump at the opportunity i am sure of that .
I have advocated this move since mid way through last season .

If you are in competition for something, like a job, it isn't exactly beneficial to be revealing your desperation for that job. Especially through a third party, like you, who has expressed and attributed that to him on his behalf.
Yes, state your interest, but not in the desperate manner you did.
If I was you, I'd stop speaking on his behalf until he's got what he wants or it is resolved to his satisfaction.

My goodness, there's a lot of bickering going on at the moment (Manny v Monkey, Evers v everyone). We've got enough to worry about at the moment being effectively managerless while sitting in the relegation zone having only scored one goal nearly two months into the calendar year during a global pandemic.

Chill, guys; we've enough on our plate as it is! Tongue

I wish people would worry more about themselves than me! In any case unable to respond directly😢 Grin.  Am warming to JB after a somewhat shaky start!👍

If Brady does want the job and is offered it, the sensible thing to do would be to appoint him until the end of the season with the option to drop back to the U18 job if it's not extended beyond that. That's low risk for both parties and makes business sense from KT's perspective (if he feels that JB has as much chance of keeping us up as any other candidate).

The important thing for me is to have a manager that the players want to play for. The likes of Marshall + Rose will benefit from the renewed faith from JB, and I like the way he handled the Bolger situation. Our most successful managers have been good man-managers. The likes of Johnson, Boothroyd + Hasslebaink etc who had excellent track records previously had things quickly fall apart when they lost the dressing room and couldnt get it back. I think Curle actually did a decent job of bringing in players with the right attitudes and getting rid of "troublemakers". Feels like they just didn't buy in to his methodology - hard to blame them when it continuously didn't work and wasn't ever adapted.

The repetative bickering can be sorted very easily, ask Everbrite and Manwork to give their keyboards a rest..........even for 24 hours.
We are already aware of their opinions!

Not sure if JB has appointed you as his spokesman but the next 2 or 3 games are critical for him! If he does well that will or may sway KT. His coaching credentials seem impressive as was his team selection against Ipswich? I also think it is idle to speculate that most (potential) Manager’s are just journey men. Most of us could nominate at least 6 acceptable prospective Managers?

Some good points made in this well balanced opinion ; the only comment missed is on Dean Austin?
