But does that make him a good choice as manager when in our position in the league? No experience.

It's par for the course for us.

Hope the lad does well and gets the team moving in the right direction.
To write him off before he has a chance is bonkers.
What do people think these terms and conditions would be? Genuine question. I just can't imagine there being any clause that would be success based for the rest of this season. Why would he risk leaving a job if he could be got rid of so easily if he bombs for the rest of the season.

My worry is if it doesn't work and we go on a losing run we're going to be paying a manager off that was a huge gamble, hence possibly bonkers!
Fingers crossed this doesn't happen and we're back in the league next year!!!

He is a massive gamble with 15 games to go, if in the closed season maybe worth the gamble not when 5th 4 points off top.. It shows how clueless on the playing side the board is.

Also all the times Harris and Bircham before him rabbited about top managers applying, shows they must of been far from the truth also.

So a massive gamble this appointment for me I feel for him really.

This club could do a TV programme I'm a football manager or an assistant... Please get me out of here.

Never mind as SH would spin great times.

Didn’t he stop doing the foot golf thing when he started at i2i in 2015? Or was he doing both?

I never said I wouldn't give him a chance. I will get behind whoever is manager I wasn't one who voted on the Poll to get rid of Barrow after 5 losses.

I'm just saying it's a hell of a gamble on the best chance we have had of actually winning this league and to put a very in experienced manager in without an experienced assistant is madness.

Ole Gunnar has the brains behind him in probably the best assistant in years.

I don't get that whole GDPR thing.. WST are the owners!

Lawrence and Barrow would have been the dream team... and my fkin SkyBet account would have been a lot healthier!

You're absolutely right, PD. I'm not bothered about credentials anymore. Every managerial appointment is 'close your eyes, cross your fingers and roll the dice'.

Solskjaer has been managing for 10 years.

Hughes has managed once for about 10 minutes at Scarborough.

I take your point, but even the greatest have managed for just 10 minutes at some point in their career.

I too will support Bryan Hughes as he is managing my club. Saying that, I cannot remember a bigger gamble in the 50 years that I have been attending games here. A bizarre decision. Totally off the wall. Could only be bettered by appointing Father Christmas or Julian Clary!
I have been away with work for the past 48 hours, and catching up on RP, it appears that things have got blacker and blacker. I am glad I don’t get involved in the behind the scenes politics - I don’t understand most of the heavy stuff on here.
