Re: So who's taking over
46I wouldn’t mind James Rowe. Fairly young, was at Gloucester and went to Chesterfield to pick up the pieces from Sheridan. Took them from relegation to almost playoffs and now at the top end of the table this year.

48Neil Lennon is 20/1 and a pro boxer is 25’s so I wouldn’t pay too much attention to it.Mr Figo wrote:Rowberry now favourite according to Skybet.
Re: So who's taking over
49Unusual situation for anyone taking over at County in his predecessor being a hard act to follow. I would start by ruling out anyone who has ever been Colin Murray's guest on Quest.
Really like Rowberry from that profile but would he want to manage rather than stay under the radar as a coach?

Re: So who's taking over
50See, I used to assume that, but now I’m not so sure. For one, I would have thought that Hats would have walked out with him in the first place, but judging by the pre-match press conference (which is on YouTube, and makes for very interesting viewing), he seems a lot more interested in doing right by the club.Justanordinaryfan wrote:Imo wherever Flynn goes next Hatswell will follow.G Guest wrote:I wouldn't hold that against him.

Re: So who's taking over
51You may be right. Hats was brought to County by Edinburgh and was released by Terry Butcher when he so ridiculously sacked every one he could. Hats then followed Edinburgh to Gillingham. We sent him away not the other way round. Flynn brought him back.
Re: So who's taking over
52If Hatswell is to follow Flynn, surely that will only come to bear when Flynn negotiates a deal with his next club. Part of his arrangement will be bringing his backroom staff. This must be to the satisfaction of the new club and Flynn’s chosen staff. Hatswell is hardly likely to stand down when there is, as yet, no other post to move to.
Re: So who's taking over
54For more money and when the new manager/ coach arrive he or she will want their own backroom staff in
Re: So who's taking over
55Hats isn’t going to quit now but,the Bristol situation will be resolved soon you would think.Flynny would be a favourite for the job and ,in all likelihood,would want Hats with him.It’s a matter of will that be resolved before our new manager is announced.
Re: So who's taking over
57Which would indicate the betting industry has as much of a clue as your average man on the street...... This vacancy has caught them entirely by surprise, so they make up a list.lowandhard wrote:The betting odds are laughable. Roy Keane and Chris Coleman at 25/1
Re: So who's taking over
58Then there is Curtis Woodhouse at 25’s,left football to be a pro boxer and has come back to have a glittering managerial career.Sheffield FC,Hull United,Goole,Bridlington,Tadcaster and Gainsborough.He left them in February so not sure what he’s been doing since,maybe gone back to boxing although he has been awarded a BEM.lowandhard wrote:The betting odds are laughable.

Re: So who's taking over
59Sheridan still in the betting so is Jimmy Dack.I even saw Peter Nicholas on one.Haven’t saw Feeney there yet.
Re: So who's taking over
60We know how these situations roll, assistant manager takes temporary charge, if he wins games and wants the job - he gets the job.......
Or problem will be attracting someone prepared to work for a club with seemingly poor infrastructure, so likely to be someone out of work with nothing to lose.
Will that deliver the progression that some think Flynny couldn't deliver?
Could it be Hats, Ellison, Podge, or a combination of either/or?
