Of course I don't know what JR's view is. Something could have gone off behind the scenes between JR and DF which prompted the change in management.
Hymas was on here criticising DF and the inclusion of youth (although since JD has released the youth player Hymas felt should have been involved) and DF criticised the new RH training base, more specifically the pitches. That could very well be 2+2=5 but could just as easily equal 4.
For the record, I certainly want us to be promoted this season (don't we all?) but I won't throw the toys out the pram if we don't. I can't hold the opinion that DF should have had this season, now we are finally rid of Evans' deadwood, to then say JD has this season only where he can only bring in 3-5 of his own players. That would be very hypocritical of me.
JD's appointment though still appears to me to be a 50/50 split between giving a young coach a shot and a stop gap to avoid a scenario this summer like last summer. Established manager coming in and wanting a complete rebuild (basically to avoid another Anderson situation, and to a lesser extent a Mirfin, Diamond and Atkinson situation).
JR doesn't have to finance a rebuild to the squad. JD knows the players we have. JD knows the youth who could be brought in. This could be a bright season.

Does he confide in you, then?
I wouldn’t disagree BTW

Been at the club this afternoon for photos etc.
Signed from an established Premiership team if I'm right and not a position I expected to sign player for.
So, as we all have waited for the big announcement the only photos were all to do with the new kit; The Chief, Khan, Mel & Davies plus the two guys from Senior Salmon sponsorship.
I've got to hand it to you, a convincing opening thread which has generated an 8 page thread of complete waffle - I suppose it's better than the deafening silence

We have the basis of a very good squad. We just need a few quality signings.

He wants promotion, just not this year!![]()
You may well be right, but if you want promotion this year you'd hardly give the squad to a rookie manager, would you?
