It may be sacrosanct to some fishy posters but involving AB in formal a consultative role may undermine AL. Listening to Buckley on the radio I doubt whether he would be one to compromise his principles for anyone. If AL wants to play the same style then great, otherwise the odd phone call or chat may be a better option.
I think Buckley's mellowed a lot over the years. I think he would be sound in the way he advised a young manager judging by comments he's made about Hurst and Jolley whilst summarising for RH. He could probably do a good job giving bits of advice to strikers too.

I actually agree Rik. Hearing from Limbrick and watching the last two games he certainly deserves 10-12 games, providing performances and hopefully results stay on an upward curve.
I'm not sure one point and one goal in three games constitutes 'an upward curve' but if things do go in the upward direction I think he shoulkd get the job on the old '6 month rolling contract' basis not just 10 - 12 games but I don't think we can risk too long if they don't. Up to and including the Christmas games only then a decision needs to be made one way or the other so a new man can have a clear out and get a few in during the Jan window All hypothetical of course if we are interviewing for the new man now

Matt Dean confirmed Danny Wilson has applied. Gets the seal of approval from Buckley on RH.

A few points to add from others comments ,
AL is already on a 6 month rolling contract so Fenty can take as much time as he thinks fit before either giving him the job or giving it to someone else.
On bringing in 3 or 4 new faces come Jan don't forget Fenty said one in one out.
Who are the 3 or 4 to go out ?

Players on loan cost they club as their wage is usually split between the two clubs. We could easily see the players on loan wanted back by their parent clubs and that could free up some money.

Whilst I agree Rik, not sure of many assistants who have replaced their previous boss and gone on to be successful. Get ready for a deluge of examples!!!!!!
Mourinho is probably the only example I can think of so I think you are pretty much on point

I meant of course giving him a 6 month contract with 'Manager' at the top not the one that says 'Jolley's yes man' Based on recent performances pick any 3 or 4 you like Pete

Cardwell, Rose, Cook and Ring for me, assuming we get better replacements.

I'd certainly go for 3 of those (and permanent departures not just loans) Cook I would retain

Have you seen him play? His only redeeming quality is to run about a lot covering up his own mistakes. When I think about the players we have had and let go even in the last dismal decade, it makes you weep.
