[Brian Flynn]

I interviewed the new manager following today's Press Conference:-

[Alty Dave]

Fair interview, so Neil is hoping for 8/9 players retained. 4 are on contract plus 4/5 others to be offered terms. saying this will be over next week or so, however I guess some he will have contacted already.

[Mrs Warbouys]

Good interview that

[Hulme Robin]

Sounds good - I think this will be a good appointment- pity we couldn't get him in earlier. Anyways I'm more confident about renewing my season ticket having heard this.

[robininstockport]

Very good interview.  Feel the most positive I have since  October.

Wonder who the 4/5 wanted players are and what's his day job?

[Timperley The Best]

You would guess Deasy , Leather and Reeves will be offered terms for next season ,  after that it's hard to say

[Sarf London Alty]

Something strangely reassuring about a person with a scouse accent managing us again.

If I had to guess I would say Densmore (he's definitely the kind of leader referred to in that interview), Leather, Moult, Clee, Reeves with maybes as Marshall/Richman. But that's total guesswork.

Good positive stuff anyway that we can all get behind.

I liked the bit for a need for a couple of leaders on and off the pitch, Something we have sadly lacked for a few seasons now.
No more being bullied and heads dropping . No more lack of fight and desire. Lets be horrible to play against.

Good luck with your project Neil and Gary.

I don't feel as ecstatic as a Leicester fan but I do feel a lot happier than I did at 7-00pm Saturday night

C'mon The Alty

[SW]

Lots of the right noises being made and reassuringly a familiarity with the current squad. Finally a manager who knows the local scene and has no ties to the club before. Should've been six weeks ago.

[Altyrocket]

and what's his day job?

When he was at Chester I think something was mentioned about MerseyRail, he obviously may have moved on.

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

Very encouraging interview. Welcome to Alty, Neil and here's to a long and happy new chapter in the club's history!

[B. 4D]

Lots of the right noises being made and reassuringly a familiarity with the current squad. Finally a manager who knows the local scene and has no ties to the club before. Should've been six weeks ago.

I thought we have drawn a line under that.
Move on!!

[SW]

What?

[PukkaPieman]

He said all the usual things expected of a new manager nothing more nothing less and I wish him well.

Before this time next year we will know much better how good he is, it will all depend on players ultimately and Neil/Gary's ability (or even luck) in finding the right ones and then getting them to perform consistently.

Well, I think it was a very uplifting interview. I also get the distinct impression that he'll be much more effective than LS when it comes to persuading players to come to Alty.
