Whilst he certainly isn’t my preferred choice (Stockdale if you’re wondering) he’s only managed 5 teams since ‘99. One of which was as a caretaker (Bolton I think). Of the 4 he’s managed full time 2 were for over 4 years. All Town aren’t we @GTFCLondon

I'd be tempted to give him 6 months. Robbie Stockdale could be a good long term appointment but his lack of experience would be a risk in our current situation.

At least we know from his experience that Phil Brown can lead footballers. We know Robbie Stockdale is a good coach but that doesn't mean he's a leader. There are loads of great coaches who failed as managers.

The Trust have no more idea than he does in terms of appointing a Manager.That board need some sort of football experience sat on it the obvious people for me are Alan Buckley,John Mcdermott and Gary Croft  they all live local and have played and managed at various levels get one or all of them involved.

So what if the's egotistical. A lot of football players are. Yes, it's not the best personality in the world, but it's good to have confidence in what you do. Look at Jose Mourinho and Pep. They're both similar in attitude and both come across "All about them". Yet they get the best out of the players and are 100% in what they do. I prefer to judge a manager who has confidence and a performance record to match in their managerial duty's. I am neither a disliker or liker of Brown. I'm just open to seeing what transpires as he has a good record of promotion and is confident in his approach. I blocked seeing red ticks years ago so go ahead   If I don't reply to you then i didn't read your replies

That type of Manager is what we need someone to build us up properly and get the Youth coming through I want to see young energetic players who want to play for the Club getting in the team.Not journeymen who don`t give a sh1t.
