He's not 30 year old and just cutting his teeth in football. Bunn has been coaching players and setting teams up for years week in week out. Absolute barmy if you thought Grayson or McCall were gonna rock up in lge 2. Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsLen Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Because there's a vacancy at Doncaster and going off how long managers last now they could have a stack of jobs in lge 1 come November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is/was coaching the Academy at Huddersfield alongside Tony Carrs and had the same job at City a few years back.

laticsmarra Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 If this is true Abdallah really has done his homework here combining both a club legend and experienced coach. Here is hoping Frankie can led us back to league 1 and beyond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope I'm proved to be wrong and obviously I will back the guy but this is the most underwhelmed I've ever been with a managerial appointment at Latics. Darren Kelly?

singe Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) It's going to take a spectacular start to the season to get me back hopeful. Never ben so uninsterested and feel so seperated from the club in over 40 years. Not just Bunn as manager, but he's the straw that breaks the camels back. I have never wanted to be more wrong. I can't even muster apathy. Edited June 12, 2018 by singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcfluff1985 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Miles more coaching experience than Scholes for those who wanted him Affinity with the club Worked with some succesful managers Not some random foreign manager who doesn't know the league's and players Will have plenty of contacts Will have good knowledge of players Plenty of plus points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute barmy if you thought Grayson or McCall were gonna rock up in lge 2. That is exactly right. Whether or not people are excited by Bunn, if it is to be him, the idea that Grayson or McCall would take on the job is ludicrous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t give a fuck if a manager hated the club as long as he got us promoted. I want the best man for the job, not someone who ‘cares’. Wellens had an affinity and look how that turned out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re a League 2 side without (it appears) a pot to piss in but some of our fans expect the likes of Grayson or Scholes to rock up delighted at the fantastic opportunity presented to them. Instead we end up with what was more realistic, somebody without significant managerial experience or a European Cup to their name, like er Frizzell or Royle, or alternatively Darren Kelly. We have no idea what we’re getting with Bunn but let’s give the bloke a fucking chance eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take away THAT Scarborough game and I'd argue he'd just be any other former Latics player.) Worked with some succesful managers (not as successful as the one's Scholes has) Not some random foreign manager who doesn't know the league's and players (see Scholes) Will have plenty of contacts (see Scholes) Will have good knowledge of players (see Scholes) Plenty of plus points IMO bringing Bunn in as #1 is a poor choice given the predicament we are in. However, bringing Scholes in as #1 with someone like Bunn as #2 would be much more understandable.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
