I would have been sorely tempted to Mr Buckley take temporary charge of this group of players as an interim measure.

It would be interesting to see what he could do with them as a coach, say over a week to two week period until somebody else is in place.

I think he was a bit out of touch with the player market when he did his last stint, but I would love to see him put his brand of football into a decent group that we have now.

Please just stop it

I agree, the bloke is more tactically aware than Paul Hurst and could do really well with this group of players.

Would certainly not have a problem with him holding the fort for a temporary period, I know his last stint was not great but i would have thought he is more able than DM, no disrespect to a great club servant, who surely has enough on his plate at present.

End of the day comes down to how long "temporary" will last but going by Shrewsbury's example 2 to 3 weeks minimum you would say and we have a very hard set of fixtures just around the corner.

He's retired.

Could be at 65 he fancies one more bash, besides i thought he was still involved with the youth?

He's been out of the game too long. Nice sentiment and there is no bigger fan of AB than me, but his time has been and gone.

Anyway what about Craig Disley as a stand in until the end of the season???
He ticks all the right boxes and knows the players and is very respected everywhere he has played.

Plus he must have some good contacts dotted around the place

Disley would not be allowed under league rules. Doesn't have either his B License, A License or Pro License.

Dave Moore has already been named as caretaker and the board will be sifting through CV's as we speak. We need an experienced league manager to hit the ground running. Disley hasn't even got his coaching badges.

I thought you could be a caretaker without the badges? Im sure someone else did that and studied for them while caretaking at a club then was made permanent.
Cant remember who it was tho

I thought that you were allowed a certain amount of time to get your licence(s) if you took over a mangerial position.

Do we really have to do this again?
