Carl Fletcher- Good or Bad appointment?

[Long slender neck]

You decide.

[Lucky7]

Another boring guess the manager thread zzz

[Smendrick Feaselberg]

Don't know yet; time and results will tell.

[Story of O]

Who knows

[F*ck The Poor & Fat]

My vote for good is looking a little lonely.

[O Superman]

Am I allowed to wait until:

a) he is actually appointed
b) he has had a fair number of games in which to form an opinion - let's say, until the end of the season, possibly 2 seasons.

Or is that being a little too sensible?

One of the worst things about modern football is people feeling the need to instantly react to a transfer or appointment. Players signed with a good reputation are celebrated like a success just because they have signed a contract, but they might turn out to be absolutely useless- look at Alexis Sanchez at United, as an obvious example.

The same can be true the other way around.

[ComeOnYouOs]

Terrible appointment ( if it happens)

Not managed for 5 or 6 yrs
Only 24% win ratio

People should get a chance, but that doesnt stop me from having an opinion now.

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Has this been confirmed?

I have to interject here for a minute. He's being asked if he thinks it a good or bad appointment. His 'opinion' is, it's a bad appointment. What's wrong with that? Nothing to do with giving him a chance.

[Long slender neck]

Has this been confirmed?

No

[aylesburyos]

Depends what poition at the club? Might make a good no 2

[faith1234]

Whoever gets the job has to be given a chance

[Orient till I die M]

Never seen so many stupid comments on a message board in my life. Judging a man before his even been appointed. Saying we need an experienced manager? Wasn't Steve Davies "experienced". Any manager with a good win ratio and a experienced cv will not be looking to manage a league 2 club.
I trust Kent and Nigel's judgment much more than I do a key board warrior with no job. up the os

[Chief crazy horse]

Maybe you are not quite understanding. We're not 'judging' a man. We're giving an opinion as to whether we 'think' it's a good appointment or not.

I don't think you understand. Just as it's ok for people to have an opinion it's ok to comment on that opinion based on information given such as "24% win rate" or "not managed for 5 years"

[Beradogs]

I would like to comment on the opinion about having an opinion on the opinion. Not now. Perhaps later.

Exactly, give the guy a chance IF he is appointed.

[Long slender neck]

Nobody is saying we shouldnt give him a chance.

I'm not saying they can't comment on an opinion??

I did say "if it happens" mate

[Thor]

True coyos I was thinking the opposite rather than it's an opinion. Sorry.
