Rodgers would have been my first choice but Smith was a close second. If he is also in tune with Terry coming in then great. I'd also imagine he will bring one or two of his own backroom staff with him. Could be the start of something special.

Johnnyp Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 A very progressive appointment if true. A proper football decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandied around lots of big names, let it be known the owners were determined to make an impact with this apppointment... Then appoint the manager of mighty Brentford. Just hope Smith turns out to be better than my current assessment of him. And what’s the John Terry role? We’re going to finance him getting his coaching quals? After the state giving bruce 2 years has left us, i'm amazed we can attract a highly rated manager from the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel for Brentford if we’re going in and taking their man, but looks like they’re set up to be a success. Hopefully we put a good team around Smith and we see a bit of a revolution at the club. Did you see how it turned out last time we took their man? Sure they will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Given the names banded about, I confess to being underwhelmed. The owners will know the difficulty they've had attracting the right candidate. Perhaps the club isn't as attractive a proposition as I'd like to think? Perhaps their plan is to have one manager for promotion, another manager for the Prem campaign? But if it's him, then best of luck to him. That said, he has many good players here to work with. Our league position doesn't reflect the strength of the squad. (Might get the best out of Hogan. Note I said, might...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Not blown away, but not unhappy either. Smith has done a fantastic job at Brentford and on a shoe string, getting them to play the right kind of football and if he had the sort of resources we've had over the past couple of season it's likely he would have got Brentford up. Now obviously it's not all down to him so I'd imagine we'll be take a lot of his backroom, at least one would hope so. Terry as assistant is an interesting wrinkle, lots of respect from the dressing room and you'd imagine he'd have a lot of fresh ideas, interesting that he's happy to be assistant rather than go for a managerial job.
