Popular Post HanoiVillan Posted January 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2021 There are highlights here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/55780185 She absolutely does look class, levels above our other players. I recommend watching the video, not just for her performance, but also for the amusing drastic changes in weather between shots. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenfly Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 What does this mean exactly? Has Gemma Davies been replaced? If so, then how is she still leading the coaching team?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he would come in as assistant manager? Interim Manager would be a higher position than a Head Coach surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Can't be delightful for Gemma this. They are indirectly saying she is not up to the task and that she needs help and experience. Which may be the case, but why does he get the manager role and not the assistant role then? A bit odd. Think she's done a decent job as well.

Think she's done a decent job as well. Or she's now got an experienced sounding board above her to help her progress in the role. Bignot is still continuing with his other roles including joint manager of Guiseley. I think its important that the club give staff the best chance of being successful and if they feel that Bignot's experience can help then I don't see the issue. As it is I assume that you'd rather put a negative slant on things but then that's nothing new is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepal_villan Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Club probably sees a lot of potential in Gemma but feel she needs an experienced hand in the short-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted January 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) it's a strange one. so whilst gemma davies is still in a 'head coach' role, the role of 'head coach' has basically been devalued. interested to know whether davies had a choice in the matter or not. she might have asked for someone to be the manager whilst she focuses on the coaching side Edited January 25, 2021 by tomav84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Bignot managed Aluko while she was playing at Blues, so obviously she knows and rates him. He does seem to have an impressive CV, doing multiple jobs at the same time throughout his career. It seems like a weird move, but my very vague impression of Aluko is that she's very smart, and maybe she wants to do things a bit differently. Maybe this move comes instead of a sacking, and you could argue it's a more progressive move to not eject an employee but give her the training to succeed in the future. Anyway, I don't feel like second-guessing Aluko right after she brought in a player who is far better than we had any real right to attract.
