There seems to be a lot of talk about Alex Neil. What do others think? 

To me I want to give RM a proper run. It is his first appointment, and he is recognising that we need to change things and he is trying different things. 

Do I rate AN, yes he is a decent championship manager, but no more than that. I don’t find his football teams exciting. 

We continue to be on financial restrictions, so we knew that someone had to be sold. Would be have been a better side keeping Fellows and Heggem. Definitely. 

Is our owner doing a good job with wheeling and dealing, definitely. 

At the mo I think we are a top half team, but probably not good enough for the play offs, despite the league being fairly poor, yet very competitive this year. 

We also have Dike and Bany to come in, if they are ever fit enough. Plus getting Molumby back in with Mowatt will improve the side. 

So for me let RM cut his teeth and see where we end up. Rather him than AN, as long as we don’t end up in a position we did with Bruce. 

Please give me your thoughts, I have my Tin hat on already!

I think Ryan should be given some time to get his head in the game, he’s young and it’s the first time he has been in the driving seat, L plates are off and he’s still learning however we need to balance that with the long term aims of the club. If it looks as though we could get sucked into a dogfight then for the benefit and future of the club he will need help or replacing.
We are a better side than our position suggests, we have surrendered to many gifted goals and dropped unnecessary points, jury still out on whether Josh is a suitable number one and we are lacking a forward creative driving force thorough the middle.
Very happy with the new owners, they have taken over a ship that was leaking water and threatening to sink, they have plugged the holes, steadied it and are starting to make the necessary repairs within the restrictive budgetary rules. It will take time, this year was / is maybe too early for a concerted push for the greed league but with a fair wind and avoiding any sharp rocks we could still be a contender.

I'm not sure Alex Niel would be a step up from Mason. After our lucky win against Oxford Mason has a stay of execution. I do believe we're just delaying the inevitable. We need a manager who can inject pace and energy into the side, be tactically aware, adopt changes in play and use substitutes in a positive way. Allow our youngsters a chance.
Sadly Mason doesn't offer none of the thing we need. Hence I'm in the release him corner.
