Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
I'd be very careful with that, Very difficult to get it back once lost, and a couple of million spent this January doesn't mean we can always throw unlimited money at every problem.
Why would you ever drop simple checks to ensure people are decent humans and collective culture is good.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Bradley has obviously been superb since coming in, but Low and Taylor were an imperious partnership in the first half of the season. One of the best CB pairings this club has ever had. Bradley can feel hard done by, but I'd be reverting to that pair with Bradley, Skura and Anders ready to rotate whenever needed.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Caleb Taylor interview with Phil suggests he has told Joe Low there is a competition with him for goals. Would suggest Low isn’t leaving. Also maybe Low/Taylor are the preferred choice.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
The good thing is...the interim team seem to be keeping us competitive so the management group can make sure they pick the right person for the job. (Not Stevie G or Rooney if at all possible...)
Anyone who loses a game gets it in the neck. It's very rare even in our unbeaten run that we looked completely on top, but that's League One football. Northampton was a classic top v bottom game in my opinion...and we did not lose it. Both Mansfield and Barnsley were typical Wycombe never say die performances for me which is very encouraging.
We can worry about who is coming in next to screw it all up for us...but at present the Sams and co are doing all right.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
I am sure the players weren't drawn out of a 'Random Danish Player' tombola, but it would definitely be an incompetent look!
Alternatively, maybe they told Sam Grace they were going to stand at '0', and every time he wins they move forward a pace, every time he draws they stand still, and every time he loses they move back a pace. If he gets to spot 5, they hire him permanently, or if he ends up back at 0 they hire a new head coach. 😁
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
I’m not convinced that ‘culture’ is going to be as important an attribute going forward. We have, for the past decade, signed ‘Wycombe types’ but I’m not sure that will be a thing anymore.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
It was reported at the Trust meeting last night that the owners are taking their time to ensure they get the right person.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
As I said, it’s history now that he’s been appointed as manager of Bolton so no longer of interest to our club.
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
True, but he's referred to as both in different places on the club site!
Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Nice to hear that Sam Vokes absolutely sh*ts himself during those painful 8-10 minutes of added time, just like us fans...!
He's always been an interesting listen, but that for me was the most open and candid interview that Sam V has ever given at WW. His steely blue eyes are completely focussed on getting us promotion, and not just from the side. It was also obvious from the interview that the play-off defeat hurt him badly, and he doesn't want to repeat that..!
