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

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    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!

    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"

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