Although it says "First Team Coach".

What's going to happen about assistant manager?

Just wondering if we might see more staff added?? If, as someone said today “player/assistant manager”?? Who could be the potential candidates? Milner? Henderson?? Will want to learn and step up asap??

Yep. I remember his debut at Anfield. Best player on the park.
Strachan played him wide the next season for some bizarre reason

Strange decision that, maybe it was to accommodate McAllister and Soltvedt in the middle.

Strachan did the same to Robbie Keane the season after, if I remember rightly; dropping him wide for away games and playing Roussel up front alone.

He’d lost whatever plot he had left at that point.

Probably going to be one of two extremes

Could be the next big thing in coaching.

Or a bluffer who likes the sound of his own voice.

We’ve added a highly rated development coach from the Premiership and the ex assistant manager of Ghana. That’s some quality additions right there. Players will be getting a step up in coaching this season.

Boateng looks to be in great shape. Maybe he can help our players with their conditioning and fitness levels. Hopefully he along with Rhys can also help attract up and coming talent.

They are not employed to do either, but sure!

Why is assistant manager of Ghana automatically a quality addition?

Why not

 

[Grendel]

Why not

I haven’t said he might not be but the role isn’t particularly prestigious is it.

It’s not the only job he’s had. I love that he already has a link with the club

Got to give the new coaches a chance, but have to say I don't really see it where some people are saying Carr and Boateng are a big coup for the club.

 

[Evo1883]

I'd he can coach like he could play then we are sorted , time will tell

 

[JSL]

Well there are two instead of one which is a bonus.

It either enhances the benefit , compounds the error or does neither.

Looks like the new Performance Director has a lot of say in the hiring of Boateng and Rhys per the article below: https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/spo...n-recruited-for-role-at-coventry-city-4687050

Coventry’s performance director Claire-Marie Roberts added: “George and Rhys were consistently the strongest candidates throughout our extensive selection process. Their respective skills will bring a new dimension to our experienced multi-disciplinary team as we work to continually enhance the development and preparation of our first-team players.”

Blimey. She has only been here 5 minutes and she's picked new coaching staff

 

[chiefdave]

What exactly did people think a performance director was going to do. Would be odd if she wasn't heavily involved in the hiring process.

Yeah but only for Lawrence?

And the usual suspects come out with the Negative.

Mark Robins was quoted as saying they both impressed in the interview process. He has clearly been involved. But you would expect her to be. I'm sure Doug King was as well.

Things change. It is good to have new eyes, new voices, new ideas at the club. It is how you make progress.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Loved George Boateng when he played for us but I only care whether he is a decent coach. No place for sentiment really.

I don't think he has been appointed through sentiment do you? Nobody doing the recruitment was at the club when he was.

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

Apparently we have appointed Josh Gowling as U18s coach. He was most recently manager at Hereford FC in National League North, and i have it on good authority that he was seen there as "a disaster" and "absolutely hopeless".
Ms Roberts (whoever she is) have a hand in that too, did she?

I see we’re already falling back on ‘blame the woman’ for any decisions we don’t like. Well done, chaps.

Only a select few cunts though thankfully

My ITK told me she picked the colour of the training kit and is now making Hamer & Biamou pay for a ticket to watch matches.

Can YOU tell me her pedigree/track record at this level?? I'd be suspicious of anyone of any gender if they just got parachuted into such a key role.

No. But also I wasn’t suggesting you were in the select few cunts. Carry on though.

I don't know her or if she's amazing at her job or not. Didn't she work for the Premier League and UK olympics though?

Bit silly to write her off because Viveash has gone.

Send a FOI to the club & I'm sure HR will help.

Maybe it will reveal she was a superstar at a megapower like Worcester City.
