We genuinely could’ve scored 5 but in the same breath could’ve lost it at the end.
The style of football is already different and I’ve already seen enough to feel excited about the football we’re going to play.
He’ll have support of the coaching staff as well as our head of recruitment and Gareth Jennings who’s looking after the performance’ side of things. The fact he’s a ‘Head Coach’ says a lot too.
Before the search started we said we wanted somebody who would bring a real identity to the way we...
If he implements stuff as well as he interviews then we’ll be in for a decent time. Really impressed with what he says after years of being told that ‘this is it’ and how good everybody else is.
Sounds like he turned down Morecambe last week too
It’s not really in Stockwoods nature to come out and shut somebody down so publicly so it’s almost certainly a case that the journalist is talking bollocks.
I think solid but unspectacular probably sums it up for me. I’ve got some concerns but you’d have that about any manager really, he’s got a decent record at this level and I’m still absolutely convinced we’re a good side. Provided he likes playing some attacking football im happy

When you first hear of it, it looks like a weird one but reading into the stuff at Cardiff and the way his current side are pissing their own league it looks half decent
One promotion with us puts him in the frame for jobs higher up and I doubt any L1 team would take him based on his experience in Northern Ireland. It’s a bigger risk for us than it is for him IMO
Healy has just given an extremely conservative answer on his future by saying ‘his concentration is on Linfield tonight and at the weekend’, whilst also saying he’d like to manage at a higher level. Looks like there’s some legs in the rumours
I don’t think it’s anywhere near as bad as an appointment as people are making it out to be.
2 promotions from this division followed by ridiculous sackings at Scunny & Salford. His recent jobs haven’t been great but even the MK Dons binning was probably a bit premature.
From the outside...
I can’t see our owners doing it the more I hear about their criteria, he ticks some boxes but I’m not sure they’ll fancy him.
With Gareth Jennings doing the bulk of the search, who according to Stockwood is ‘the most connected man in football’, I’d be surprised to see us end up with Artell now...
