We've got a top Manager.

Task One -- achieved.

Task Two -- I'm sure off and running with plans already.

In Warnock we trust

good appointment by them. If they got Warnock, then that would have been a good appointment too

[Goddard]

Warnock was one of a few good managers (including Coppell) that we could have gone for.

There were also some cr*p managers we could have gone for. Thankfully, we didn't.
This time.

All true - given the circumstances at HQ (at the time and in recent times) not only was Warnock a good appointment, he was the only right appointment.

Don't doubt for one moment that that Coppell or anyone similar to him are good managers but the required job at HQ was just made for Warnock IMO.

[ollyhoops]

I think out of the choice I'd rather Coppel but thats history now, I'm happy with Warnock so lets hope he can deliver the goods.

[qprsuttz]

i prefer to have warnock.

[W10 RANGER]

they will be top 2 contenders next season along with us hopefully

[bushcelt1]

well done to them...top manager

[Mutley]

When the appointment was made, i would have preferred Neil. (given the choice).

For an exciting next season, im glad we have Neil,

For long term future...would have chosen Coppel.

But im not complaining,

we've already had all of them and sacked them

Coppell has always been my preferred choice, but we haven't done too badly.
