In these difficult times I wouldn’t have thought that taking extra staff on would be a good idea. Of course, it may not be true but if it is someone may have to make way.
Can only be a positive, great personality, knowledgeable of the game and has actually played for us. I wish we kept ex players on more often.
Why extra staff?Quote:

I accept what you say but 20/21 season will be our last with the benefit of a parachute payment and after that there will be a big hole in our budget. 20/21 will also be the last year of the SB playing contract. So 21/22 Is a major concern and that is when there will be a lot of coats cut according to their cloth and that is when headcount matters.Quote:

Seems like a nice guy .Quote:

Perfect for the job , ticks every box for me.
If it doesn't work out , I wouldn't mind having a go , part time of course. Quite busy with other projects.
Don't think Warnock did much coaching, his qualities were best suited to being a manager, and I'm wondering if Bamba is the same. I'm sure he will become good at it but not one I would peg as having the skills to move straight into the position. In fact, with his experience in different leagues and levels, his strong communication skills, the strength of his character and fondness for the City I would say it's a more natural move towards an upstairs role (aiming to move into DoF) rather than coach, although I am happy he'll still be around.
