Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
Chester City have parted company with their manager and apparently our very own John Coleman is favourite to take over.

That is all.

Chester fans seem to think it's a done deal.

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
I'm there to be shot down but I can't see Coley taking it on.

He will see that he has grown this club form an infancy to late teens. Maybe he might feel that he can't take us much, if any, further - but how far could he take Chester? and would the money or facilities be any better?

I'd be surprised .......

Tin Monkey 11-11-2008 20:45

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
I don't really see what the Chester job would offer Coleman, especially as his job is pretty secure at Accrington. Vaughan goes through managers at quite a rate, although he is a friend of Coley's.

I first read about this rumour last month, way before Davies was sacked at Chester. However, the rumours are running wild at the moment and remember, Coleman has been linked with the Chester job in the past.

Willie Miller 11-11-2008 20:55

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
I could see him thinking Chester have more potential, but couldn't see him ditching his current set of players to work with theirs in the same league.

He'd be after upwards not sideways

maccawozzagod 11-11-2008 20:57

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
12 managers in seven years (Whally went through 12 managers in 12 weeks (ish) pre-Coley)

rumours abound about possible administration that would probably put them in the Conference


................. he'd be daft to even consider it

maccawozzagod 11-11-2008 20:57

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
and he'd get Harris and Mannix back after ditching them in the summer!

I don't see much more potential at Chester than here ... both clubs have limited possibilities. They struggle for fans just like we do, and their ground, although reasonably new, is small and horrid and 'possibly' being replaced (£16m for a crappy club with no fans - it'll never hapen)

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
It’s going to come down to the strength of the relationship between him and the club and the pending size of the wallet of the club making him an offer. Is Coley not one of the longest serving managers across the leagues? Surely he must get sick of the same results each season, poor gates and facilities, small budget….

His Loyalty can’t be criticised even if he did decide to **** and join the Walsh, he’s done his Job many times over with Stanley, and if it’s true, then he goes, simple as that. Eric’s resources must be limited; the Town doesn’t give a dingle or the council….I’m with K-P…..worried.

There seems little stability at Chester Coley would be made to go their

K-P 12-11-2008 10:44

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
chester is closer for him. better ground, better facilities and only a guess but probably better wages..

What hurts me to say the most is that chester probably have better potential.. Accrington Stanley are not in financial trouble and can survive exactly where we are. We need bigger gates to generate the income to push on. I really cant see us getting a regular 2k a week let alone the attendances we would need to live in league one.

Chester is a city isn't it? higher population.. If Coley put his genious to work there they could go places..

I am not saying anything Coley or anyone else doesn't already know.

So all thats left is loyalty... but you have to put that against propects and finances... he is a family man and loyalty doesn't pay the bills

It should go without saying that I 100% want him to stay.. I would be massivly gutted if he went.. I am a big coley fan and truly believe he is the only man for this job... My choice is to keep him.... But ..

So yer.. Worried :( I wonder if all the people who have asked for coleys head in the past would be so happy if it became reality.. somehow I think not.. somehow I think they would panik if he left..

Christies Child 12-11-2008 11:28

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
Now that the real job he wanted is no longer avaialble, maybe he would look at 3rd best!:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Seriously, JC would be taking one hell of a gamble with Chester especially with their record of management loyalty. As for more money, possibly in his own pocket.... but for players??????

What will be, will be. But I'd hate to see him go there and be treated like poo by SV. JC deserves better than that.....if only 'cause he's a CP legend.

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
Hvaing now had a shufty around the chester website... blimey they have the same messages from the chairman as we do.. about if the people of chester want a league team they need to come support us.... sounds like here.. hmmm little less worried now :)

Forever Red 12-11-2008 13:03

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
Well I for one would be astonished if he went to Chester. Yes he'd be right to be ambitious but what have Chester ever done. Its a city but not a very big one. They are almost as perpetual basement boys as Rochdale. The ground is absolutely crap. No character no atmosphere. Its just 4 bus shelters round a field at the end of an industrial estate.

afrikaaner 12-11-2008 15:43

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
If he goes i wonder how many of our players would follow him?.The scouse connection and all that.It would have me worried K.P.

How can they follow him? They are on contract also Chester have no money to buy players, they have been suspended from signing players twice for going over their wage cap.

well if the worst happened, just seen n interview on skysports news, Andy Cole wants to go into management.:)

Howard Kendall wants to get back into management and Brian Little last week said he was looking for a club in the 'lower' leagues near to the north-west to manage.

Tin Monkey 12-11-2008 20:55

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
To be fair, even the Chester fans are saying that Coleman would be mad to leave Accrington for them. :D

DAV007 12-11-2008 22:09

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
if he was going to leave, surely the job for coley would be tranmere after ronnie moore fails to get them into the play offs again this season.

Remember a few years ago when the Leeds job came up being momentarily worried by exchanging glances with a Coley look alike in Commercial Street Leeds who appeared to recognise me by sight. I cannot see him leaving Accrington and certainly not for something that's not a significantly better position.

Followed Brian's career with interest from the early days. Have his autograph from the 1975 Villa League Cup and promotion winning side. He came from Peterlee in Durham originally. After all his moves its good to know he'd like to settle in the North West.

I can't see Coley leaving for Chester. Wouldn't want him to either. He's done wonders for this club and though he's still got a lot to learn in the realm of league management, I can't envisage us attracting an adequate replacement.

It sums up how we the fans look at the situation.. cant see it summing up how Coley looks at it..

lets hope its nothing more than a nasty rumour by TM and look forward to tonights game

maccawozzagod 13-11-2008 16:49

Re: Rumour mill is grinding.... look in for more!!
 
todays Observer quotes Coley "its news to me, I just get linked with it as i am a football manager from nearby"

he then goes on to ask the reporter if they have a contact number for Chester FC ........

Eh? I reported what Chester fans were talking about. The rumour, and it is only that, has been in the public domain for over a week before I posted it on here. Did I make it up? No! The evidence is there to see if you look around various L2 and Chester forums.

It seems quite a bit more than coincidence that the slight bickering between posters in recent weeks seems to coincide with your return K-P. I think I preferred it when you were in limbo. :)
