Flitcroft (Swindon) to take over at Mansfield - strange one? (1 Viewer)

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Just read this - I think Swindon are a better team than Mansfield - having looked at Swindon's run in, I thought it looked easiest of the top group (including ours) He may have backed the wrong horse - very strange. Glad to see turmoil at our rivals!

Oh yeah - Swindon are the Robins (forgot that!) Just popped on the Swindon forum - they seem quite happy he's going (which might not be good news for Mansfield!) Also read that Swindon wouldn't offer contract beyond this Summer - part of reason to jump ship.

Be interesting to see who Swindon go for.

Russel Slade is available.

Okay.

What's Andy Thorn up to these days?

Trollope is finished at Exeter this summer, maybe Swindon can tempt him and the merrygoround can really take off.

Is Tisdale leaving then to bring in Trollope, so Trollope can then be sacked?

Oops yes Tisdale.

I’m sure many posters on here would be upset to see Russel commit to anything other than a Ricoh Return!

Looks like the Mansfield/Peterborough thing may have been on the cards. Seems odd that Mansfield have been immediately able to snap up Flitcroft.

Where does this leave Swindon though? Guessing this has come as a bit of surprise for Swindon and it would be interesting to know if they can get someone in quickly.

Could derail their season if they don't act quickly.

Highlighted this in another thread. Be interesting to see how these teams fortunes change.

Blimey. This is all a bit bonkers isn't it!

As long as no " new manager bounce"

 

[Warwickhunt]

Do you think Stags and Swindon are gambling on the new manager bounce to get them over the line?

worked brilliantly at WBA :angelic:

I just can't see how Swindon were expecting this to be honest.

Be interesting to see how quickly they now recruit.

Phil Brown is available. He was rumoured to go to Mansfield, so could be now in Swindon's eyeline.

Hope they don't go for Rosler, because I do really rate him and I think that would really boost their chances of going up.

Cambridge and Grimsby are currently managerless.

Didnt expect the Derry one either. Crazy goings on.

Odd appointment for Mansfield

 

[Otis]

Rosler's stats (Leeds apart, who have been a bit of a basket case when it has come to managers) are very decent. I do hope they don't go after him.

Paul Cook who’d have thought?

Paul Cook, who'd have thought what?

Wigan’s Paul cook? How does he come into it?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

That he’d do so well
