Will he be retaining the current back room staff Baker ? But my feelings are "I just dont know" we will have to wait and see.

He's apparently come out and stated that he's willing to stay with the current backroom staff.

He deserves a fair crack of the whip regardless if we think he's the right man or not.

HOW MANY THOUGHT THAT GARY SPEED WAS THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE JOB WHEN HE CAME IN?????

THE TRUTH IS - IT'S A RESULTS BUSINESS

IT DOES SEEM TO BE THE BEST SOLUTION THOUGH

BOTH THE PLAYERS AND THE FANS WANTED TO KEEP THE MOMENTUM WITH THE BACKROOM STAFF

THAT FIRST SPEECH TO THE SQUAD WILL BE TAKE SOME DOING

GOOD LUCK CHRIS :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Im pretty sure Ray is nearly out of contract as well

If he and the current coaching staff can work together then definately.

I hope so, but my honest opinion, yes and we should all give him a chance. :ayatollah:

Some mistakes made when referring to his time at Fulham

It wasn’t just his on-field achievements that were being praised, he also managed to persuade highly-rated Manchester United forward Louis Saha to join his Craven Cottage side.


Untrue, Saha signed before Coleman took charge from Metz, it was in fact Coleman who sold him to United after his first year their, along with a number of other players, ultimately leading to Fulham's struggle the next year.

Edwin Van Der Sar, Louis Saha, Steed Malbranque and Luis Boa Morte


In fact all of those were signed before and sold by Coleman.

Other than that a good article. Coleman has never actually done that bad at any side, his Coventry side was decent and like you said he tried to implement his own style, after a 19th place finish the board didn't give him any time to build further and look where they are now. At Larrisa he only lost 1 in 12 as well.

Young and enthusiastic it seems, much like Gary Speed, lets hope he can keep up our recent success :ayatollah:

Exactly Annis. When Speed was appointed we were quick to criticise it, but with a little faith I think Coleman can do a great job. I mean, what a set-up he has, so much talent.

Sorry man, I rushed it a bit as it was done in virtually 15 minutes after it was announced!
