Slade and Wilkinson - confirmed

Quoted from ginnywings

Should have appointed him 8 years ago, so when Fenty said to him he couldn't be more pleased at the end of the press conference, i thought it was all about righting wrongs and trying to re-live the past. I didn't like Hurst and i don't like Slade, so it's a sad day for me. There i said it.

Shows it is all about opinions Ginny.

i liked Hurst but said very early in his tenure that  Bignot didnt sit right. All mouth and little substance but again just an opinion.

Slade and Wilkinson will do for me and i bet we finish higher next season that this

Fenty told us we aren't allowed to talk about the past

Well it's Slade then, certainly not that keen on him. Mind you I have returned my toys to the pram after saying I would not go to the remaining games and not renew my ST. I will be there on Friday and the wife pays for my ST anyway. Let's hope both Slade and Wilko can get to grips with the squad and sort out their preferred system and players in the remaining 5 games. I must admit though to looking forward to the squad building that will have to be done.

I think if you take away his last two jobs at troubled clubs Charlton and Coventry this season, then he's got a good pedigree, and let's not forget, finished 8th in the championship last season.

In Wilko, we've got a local legend and a highly respected coach that's been at plenty of decent clubs throughout the divisions.

I'm looking forward to having an experienced management team, and whilst i hope we continue to try and unearth non-league gems, i'm also looking forward to Wilko and Slade being able to possibly being able to attract a higher calibre of player.

I'm very pleased with that duo, especially seeing Wilko back! At least Slade thinks about what he's saying when asked a question, rather than waffling on endlessly about nothing!

Quoted from Tangerine Chris

Why are they not saying how long his contract is?

It's going to be longer than Bignots.

i.e 6 months

Questions like "What's your plans for the club after todays Play Off Final Russ?" you mean?

Hope the players are looking forward to boot camp

I bet we would have finished higher next season with MB but we'll never know now.

Strange we don't know the length of the contracts I can see it as a 2 year deal possible to extend for a extra year but it's quite clear there on abit of cash
