I know an ex Swindon , Cheltenham and Worcester player. He knows Boddy very well in a working capacity. He said he's a nice enough fella but he thought he would be well out of his depth with the Cov job and surprised he was offered it in the first place.
I hope this turns out to be worthwhile for him and us , he has to start somewhere but I can't help thinking the championship is a difficult place to play with no senior experience what so ever.
I only hope he doesn't turn out to be like the Palace kid we gambled on. Wasted everyone's time.
The way things are looking we end up with Sheaf , O'Hare , Eccles, Burroughs, Palmer(unfortunately) and Bidwell. Vic and Hamer gone because they have a price. All the rest back to their current clubs or surplus to requirements
Yes, Man U devalued it when they decided to pull out to take part in a competition on the other side of the world. Also it was the only live domestic game on TV. However ,we're a win away from a possible top prem side at home which we would most certainly sell out
