Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
That was kinda my point when I talked about ML distance and lack of comms to kipper. I don’t buy the “they didn’t have the spine to sack Matt” devils advocate game Kipper was playing - I 100% believe ML would have pulled the trigger on Matt months ago, if that’s what they really wanted to do. And even if he did lack the spine, the distance and lack of first hand expirence with MB as a player and manager would have made it an easy thing to do.
Ergo, my conclusion was they were content enough to keep him in place. Not there first choice. Certainly not there last.
He may not have been loved by his bosses like he obviously was by Rob and Pete, but if the going gets tough at Luton, I don’t think he’ll find the same love there for that long either.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Oh it 100% is the dilemma.
Because as @Chris pointed out, we are fans of the club and it’s not our job.
So while I can 100% see the business side of the change and it all sees entirely logical to me, the real question/dilemma is “is this the same football club I have and want to continue to support”.
And that’s for each of us to decide. And whatever you decide, it’s the right answer because it’s your answer.
Re: Dave Evans award
That's a blast from the past! I have wonderful memories of his and ex Reading player Nas Bashir's half-term and summer holiday football courses run by WWFC in the late 90s and early 00s, great to see Dave is still getting recognition for his work.

Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
It doesn't take a genius to work out why he hasn't posted on this subject
Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
If he was committed to a better style of football, given the improved financial backing the owners could give him, I would be on board with a return of Gaz and Dobbo. Not going to happen of course.
Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
Just thinking out loud and hypothetically too for a moment.
When a return for Ainsworth has been suggested there have been a number of posters who feel we have moved on and so has the football style etc. Myself included.
But plenty of people are now concerned about the club not being the same anymore on an interactive / family level as of this point having lost Blooms among others in recent times.
So my question is, if GA was approached to come back along with Dobbo and his team and they were all fully on board with the setup they would walk into, would you take them back?
Completely hypothetically in this scenario I would, particularly as that final season when things were really coming together I loved watching us play and he did always like creative exciting players when we could afford them and we have lots of them now.

I'm with @Otter87 time to end this. We know who thinks what and why by now.
