My major concerns about this guy are that he always seems to be associated to clubs that are either already or quickly become financially insecure.
His time at Everton, when he began, they were in a bad way. With us, we became in such a bad shape (which was not seen until Ridsdale came in to help)and from the outside looking in, he did little to aid the situation. He was at Birmingham and they ended up in the financial mire. When he went in the Chesterfield they were already in the mire. His time at Crawley didn’t go well either. I guess a career of negative performance experience is still experience?!
I know people are saying under different bosses he may prove successful, but with that many bites at the cherry and to not really ever have altered any of the clubs fortunes for the positive, nor in recent years it seems has been capable of holding a job down...I just have so many reservations.
I really hope he proves me wrong, of course. I bet his first interview will say, a review will be undertaken of current and possible future streams, followed by him saying the club needs to strengthen its connection with fans and the City alike. Again, hope he proves me wrong.
