Quoted from arryarryarry


Just to mention that Artell was sacked after getting Crewe relegated.


That proves my point doesn't it?..sacked for failing...
Doesn't mean he hadn't had success, and won't be successful here though.

Quoted from Mappers
They seem to be similiar to Hurst in that they operate better with so called underdog clubs - Braintree and Lincoln at the time were backs to the wall jobs were they worked wonders but not so well at the clubs with higher expectations and where a more fluid exponent of football is expected . You could argue Colchester is closer to the former 2 rather than latter so might suit them but Golly's view that they are some sort of lower league oracles isn't my view but each to their own i guess .

They seem to like to work with senior players , one's that they know a lot of the time but Colchester are quite big on bringing academy players through so it will be interesting to see if they change in that regard .


I recall he had a bit of Clive Nate’s investment cash to play with when he took over at Lincoln.

Was it?

Left Braintree to move to a club that had (and realised) the potential to get back in the EFL quickly and progress further, under a new owner who does things for the right reason & had guaranteed funding on and off the pitch.

I’m sure it wasn’t too much of a big decision, what’s en experienced PE Trachers salary £35k perhaps?

Ask Lincoln supporters if they think he is a good manager.  He took them from mid table National league to L1 with three trophies in the cabinet on the way. He got Braintree into the playoffs but they sank like a stone when he left.

I think he will pull Colchester clear of the drop zone.
