Disagreement over if the winner of head tennis Tuesday gets a bottle of water or a bottle of coke and a chocolate doughnut?

I'm starting a petition on this, I want a re-run!

We all wondered how long. Theres the answer.the man who supposedly recommended Coyle for the job no longer wants to work with him. #venkysout

But no one would touch Lambert with a barge-pole after he dissed Venky's.

Who did recommend him then I wonder? Mysterious.

Well the Coyle revolution is in full swing with a good man going who allegedly put Coyles name forward for the job and after only two days of pre season. This opens the door for Sandy Stewart which JHR predicted recently.

With a couple of links to ex Dingles rumoured to be in the offing it is another sad day in the life of a Rovers fan.

[BlueMonday]

So are those that were comfortable with Coyles appointment because we had a good coaching team, still comfortable?

Somebody called this yesterday, saying OC would want his mate Stewart alongside. Looks like that will be imminent.

Makes even more a mockery of the manager 'search' criteria of wanting them to work with AI and RK.

[Parsonblue]

I assume he has left to make room for Sandy Stewart - Coyle's assistant wherever he manages. No surprise that the manager wants to surround himself with the backroom team he normally works with - Stewart and Hughes. It seems normal these days that a manager moves around with his own support team.

[K-Hod]

I thought it had been a while since we were in the news for a staff member leaving.....

[FGS5635]

Is he really a good coach? He's been around a long time and that seems to indicate he is, but in the football world of jobs for the boys, its hardly proof he is all that

Yes.

But they mock on a daily basis

Of course it does Parson, so you have to wonder why it was so important that the new manager had to work with Irvine and Kelly. You can't believe one single word anyone at the club says.

Coaches do follow managers but Stewart was available when Coyle was appointed so why didn't it happen then instead of now, two days into pre season. No doubt I will be accused of being a conspiracy theorist but something about this just doesn't smell right.

Again going against everything cheston said but in all honesty every manager brings in his own backroom staff so no big surprise really

Because highly likely there was no manager search

#operationboycott until #venkysout is seemingly still a good idea

Alls good parsons . Bringing in more assistance of proven failure then.

I'm on board.

This thread is as predictable as an England tournament exit.

Enough is enough hey blue .

No missed penalties included, that was unpredictable.

Said not long ago this was nailed on. No way does an experienced manager like Coyle come in and work with someone else's backroom staff, it rarely happens in football. Just a subtle effort to get Coyle through the door without adding to the fuss and another amount of wasted pay offs and pay ins.

Just like the fact Feeney was done and dusted the min Coyle walked in but they buried it. Just like he doesn't know the agency he worked with previously ! I wouldn't trust a single word that comes out of that club these days it's just fallen in line with it's corrupt ownerships way of doing things.

There ought to be no uproar whatsoever when we lose Hanley / Marshall because you've all be warned enough the track we are continuing to go down.
