No its not Flynns fault.
I just despair when I see a manager who has just left a L2 club in mid table as 1/2 fav.
If he wasnt at Newport he wouldnt be anywhere near the betting.
Id be seriously pissed off if we appointed Flynn but would hope he could prove me wrong.
He's not my first choice but he will get my full support for a season or two.. I don't know much about him but i feel he's getting judged because he was at lowly Newport.
In my opinion it doesn't make him a good or a bad choice for us only time will tell us that.

I feel your despair, I really do. Tuerto mentioned the other day in thread something which resonated with me and it was 'play the ball not the man'. I feel the board is the ball and any manager they appoint is (obviously) the man. I mentioned in another thread about my feelings re. selecting any manager by our board.
But yeah, despair is a good word re. CCFC at the moment. Let's hope we can get something tomorrow because we could all do with a lift!
Flynn could do as a stop gap.
Can't make us perform any worse than we've been for the last couple of months.
Trouble is our lot will offer him a two year contract after a couple of wins.
Not seen enough to comment about the football but as a personality he has always seemed like somebody would be perfect with Cardiff.
How else would he be judged? He had an uneventful playing career and has only worked for County since getting his badges. He doesn't have some grand experience at a higher level to be judged on. Let's face it, no-one would care if County were based in the midlands, he had a couple of good cup runs, two failures in the playoffs and a couple of bottom half finishes, there's a good reason he's not odds on at any other champ club so I don't know why we should lower our expectations so much.
Appointing Flynn has similar risks to appointing one of the coaches linked, I'd rather go for the latter.
Russell Slade got a better Managerial record than Flynn and our fanbase were largely furious with his appointment. If Flynn gets the job, I think most of our support will get behind him. Bizarre!
