Ex City manager linked to Vale job
Former Coventry City manager Aidy Boothroyd has been mentioned as a possible manager for Port Vale.
The club is going through something of an upheaval following the departure of Micky Adams to Sheffield United and Jim Gannon following an alleged falling out with his assistant and there has been news that the latest incumbent Gareth Owen is set to leave as some supporters boycott season tickets until there is a change in the board.
Boothroyd was deservedly sacked after a run which saw the Sky Blues not win from December 4th against Middlesbrough until he was dismissed in March by the then board including Ray Ranson who personally appointed him.
His tactics and style of management which certainly did not get the best out of the players available did not help his cause, whilst signing players like Roy O'Donovan and not playing him and a knack of being able to spend the club's money, also gave cause for concern.

Good Luck to him, his tactics didn't get us anywhere and Thorn has shown what our squad can do but he always seemed very honest. Not many managers are like that.

I don't think he'l ever be successful again unless he changes his predictable tactics. Not being hard on him or anything because he seemed like a very honest and nice guy and the players seemed to respect him. Just a shame that he couldn't motivate the team. Good luck to him anyway, but I bet he'll be looking for a new club before next season is up.

Good luck to him, things didn't work out here under him for many reasons. We have Thorn in charge now and it's going to be onwards and upwards from here! Would be nice to see some of our former managers at football clubs rather than on Sky like Coleman and Dowie.

Let's hope he comes in for one or two of our players that belong in that league
