Good logical points, paxman.
If this is Andy Thorn's first step on the managerial ladder, then he will no doubt bust the proverbial gut in order to make a success of this unlikely opportunity.
The performances since his appointment,have been nothing short of
Jaw dropping, with the style of football the fans have been pleading for, the players have appeared to shake off the cobwebs of seasons of stagnant, boring, non productive football.
His appointment could be just the tonic the Club needs, and without the costly contract negotiations, that we would have been forced into to secure the services of a "named manager".
I think the decision to appoint him was the correct one, he knows the players, and in turn the players have responded to him in very positive fashion, so the decision to appoint him was something of a no brainer.
good luck Andy, you have earned the opportunity.
