Called his performance awful in the press. But later came out he fully went to town on him for poor effort
"He’s not been good enough for five, six, seven, eight, nine weeks now.
“Why do you think he was dropped at the start?
“I’ve told him in front of everyone that six months ago he had a kick to go to the Premier League, now he wouldn’t get a game in the National League"
Always keep an eye on FGR, such an odd appointment. They never quite recovered from Rob Edwards leaving days after they were promoted to League 1. They got stuck in a loop of modern coach followed by a nutter! I thought they had got a decent replacement in Burchnall but that went tits up fast. Then they tried a madman in Big Dunc Ferguson which went horribly. Tried again to get a fancy up and coming coach in Horseman which also went horribly. So they panicked and gave it to Deeney who was there already. He is so unsuitable for management, totally the wrong temperament! Steven Cotterill is exactly what they need now.
Tricky league to get out of but FGR are doing ok. Need to get promoted within a few seasons as their new stadium has finally been green lit after some petty local council bollocks blocked progress.
