He's bald

FishCostaFortune

Our Alex Ferguson.

Smithy

The best we could hope for in our situation. Whether he succeeds relies entirely on the ownership

hudson-son-son

As I have accepted the absolute shit show we are in and no one good would touch us, it cheered me up slightly that we have appointed him as I was expecting worse. Will support him and think he can make us a more solid side but don't expect an awful lot.

iaitch

Is he a manager or head coach?

3blokes

The man who put the Russell in Brussel ( almost), maybe Roland just felt his name was just a bit Belgian enough to give him a go.

PeterGage

Total apathy regardless who the manager is whilst Duch is still the owner. Won't change my mind next year about non-renewal of my season ticket.

I hope journos especially the local ones ask the right questions at the press conference. Specifically does he have full control over the signings, loans etc.

Chris_from_Sidcup

So can we assume he was willing to let Roly and Nightmeire choose his signings?

Leuth

6/6/16. Hails to our new Dark Lord! \m/

LenGlover

Well he is going to have to work with youngsters.

Young Kevin Lisbie did well under his management for Orient!

What's he going to say though. 'No I'm just a puppet and I do what I'm told for my £40k'?

First question. So Russell, will you be allowed to sign your own players?

If yes, we have a chance.
If no, then nothing has changed.

Nicholas

Good luck Russell, Lets now see if you are your own man or a little bitch like the lot before you.

ricky_otto

Not seen any indication of who he will be bringing as part of his backroom team. Perhaps Katie hasn't told him yet.

Then the follow up would.be, why are you so desperate to take the job knowing the limitations or are you hoping to be sacked by Christmas with a nice payoff!

Fiiiiiish

After being sacked in November:

"I'm done with football, i've just had to txt Vincent Tan and apologise for calling him the maddest person involved with football...congrats Roland"

Alex Wright

I hope he does well. Good luck Mr Slade.

I think we will know the answer pretty quickly once the first few players sign on the dotted line.
