Stanley's next manager? - Page 5

Was wondering what the Sligo fans were feeling about all the speculation - & was hoping they'd be campaigning to persuade them to stay, seems that was a long shot

Yeh got more chance of being struck by lightening.

For me "NO" i fear for this good set of players if Paul Stevenson isn't given a chance to shine with may be David dunn coming it to take on the reins next wk with paul returning to under manager

Beattie was building a good team in my opinion with great spirit and Paul Stevo is carrying it on,the whole squad are buzzing and they're trying to play exciting football ,they just need a bit more time to develop.......but alas it's about to be all undone by a manager who never tried to improve the pitch whilst at Stanley and once slumped into a chair in Mr Whalleys office 30 mins or so before kickoff and when asked what the pitch was like said he didn't know .....God help Stanley for what we are about to receive !!!

To many Directors without a pot to p*ss in !!!

I disagree.
The club has not moved forwards of the pitch.
We are still tin pot.
We need a manager who can work with the limited resources and get the best value per £ out of the squad.

Coleman has proven time and time again he can do that, he is the right man for the club.

Not only has he worked near miracles with the playing budget at his disposal in the past, but he is still hungry for more success and will firmly beleive he can beat all the odds again and get stanley up another division.

Coleman is the perfect choice.

Now just hang on a moment here, DAVOO7. You are a man who likes facts. Was it not a fact that a certain individual made money available to JC that enabled us to make such rapid progress through the non-league leagues?

DAV007 · 15-09-2014, 23:26

but compared to the competition we were still small plucky accy.

btw, even if coley had sacks of cash, money does not guarantee success. There are lots of examples.

Just for a new point of view - you know, instead of the childish bating taking over approximately 90% of posts on this forum these days - could it be that Coleman and Bell are a perfect fit for Stanley; which was exactly their foil at other clubs?

A well respected person in the game put it to me in our play-off season that Coleman could do wonders with our club, but would most likely fail at any other. Our uniqueness, warts and all, was mirrored in him, hence the success. I laughed him off at the time as I saw great things down the line for both John and Jimmy, but am well prepared to now accept that standpoint.

In a related irk, I hope that the board take the input they need when making the decision. Unlike the non-league days, we desperately lack in-the-know football people in our top positions such as Phil Terry and Eric Whalley.

In there lies your answer let,s appoint somebody other than JC.

one of the things that I like about Coley is that he is a figurehead, someone who 'becomes' the club - and we have been lacking in that department for some time now. He IS a personification of the club and is tinpot and brash and a little bit in yer face with few manners. That is us down to a tee.

Point 2 would be that we cannot let the club become a side event to all and sundrys' lofty ambitions of bettering themselves. "I'll come for a year then bog off to the next pay day". We WILL be back in the conference if we cant find some stability.

People cannot surely believe he makes a good figurehead,his loud foul mouth was the main reason for parting with Southport,who wanted to become a family orientated club.
Point 2 is that bettering themselves ? Or BETTING on themselves?

So what yer saying, is whatever he may have done,thats fine??? Well certain stuff i cannot accept simple as.

AccyMad · 16-09-2014, 07:32

Agree that we need stability & surely the best way to achieve that is to let Paul Stephenson carry on
