Why would they be well respected and not be able to do a job as assistant?
I'm sure Willie is capable of judging that.

Willie will know how he works from his days at Leeds.

I would say whenever I have heard him summarise one of our games on the radio he always appears to be quite negative about the club.

I have an irrational dislike of Francis Cummings, stemming back from his playing days at Leeds. Came across as a bit of a whinger when head coach too. Still, Poching knows him, I don't, and if he wants him that's all that matters.

What are you on about 'just be careful' :roll:

It's nothing to do with me, if it happens it's down to WP. If WP thinks he's the man for the job then that's his choice.

Still, if you want I'll e-mail the club and ask them to sign up Matt Hancock, I don't believe anyone respects him.

Is that a bad thing? I'd take that as he doesn't like losing and is a winner......??

His coaching record doesn't back that up. Similar to Dennis Betts, I find negative coaches generally instill that within the team and its contagious.

It's a fair point......perhaps coaching has moved on and it's all about 'positive energy.....'

Maybe it's a bit of yin and yang, a good cop bad cop thing. Doesn't always pay for everyone to think the same way. I'm only speculating as I don't know the bloke and I don't know if we are employing him.
