Re: David Wheeler departs
Interesting. Does sound like Wheels is potentially looking to explore non-playing options if GA has referenced him in the same context as McCarthy.

Re: Mike Dodds
Free hit on Saturday so no pressure this week . I hope that he can keep Vokesy involved as that would be a good win for him. Vokes played at highest level and I could see him being groomed as part of our new world order to come along for the ride.
Very ‘style over real substance’ on the interview front (not a negative) and difficult to gage just what he’ll be like as a Head coach beyond the odd bits and pieces posted on other club forums.
I must say that our whole media packages have been upgraded to be much more polished although the autogenerated CCs that are littered with incorrect words should be tightened up for readability.
He seems like a solid guy, right PR answers for the moment and at least not a Steve Evans / Ian Evatt type personality.
Welcome aboard, although it all comes down to results in this business so be lucky!
Re: Mike Dodds
Can't remember exactly, I have a picture in my mind of him doing it in the Vere Suite. I do remember him saying the players weren't fit, and he made it clear that he was going to make changes. He bigged up his record. Fair enough if you have taken over a failing team, but the team had just finished sixth in their first season in tier 3. Complete opposite to Dodds.
Re: Other Football
I'm not sure these US tech bods think they have to abide by any rules. Good luck to him. I hope it nets him a decent bung.

Maybe they are reading your posts, because I just checked and it's all up to date now
Re: Mike Dodds
No but only just - Scowen signed for Wycombe in June 2021 and then Dodds joined Sunderland in August that year

Re: Mike Dodds
Did Kortney Hause "really establish himself in the premier league"?
I'm not sure he did. I think it's Mike Williamson
Re: David Wheeler departs
I’ve never met David Wheeler but our granddaughter’s partner knows him quite well through a shared interest and involvement in sustainability so I’m very much aware of what a great guy he is.
As probably one of the most emotional guys on the Gasroom, I’m slightly hesitant about watching David’s farewell video but, having gone through so much sadness a few weeks ago over Matt’s departure, at least this one is substantially less controversial.
i think most of us are gradually coming to terms with the enormous changes that are taking place and I must say that I found @bluntphil’s interview with Mike Dodds very reassuring.
