2-3 minutes of it here... He's not going to be a barrel of laughs is he? He's as straight as a die. Still I suppose we haven't hired him for the jokes and there was enough on-field comedy under Hughes and Lambert to last most of us for a life time!

I think he comes across very well. He certainly seems to know what he wants, and I think he'll be steadfast in trying to ensure that the team and squad play how he wants. He certainly emphasised the teamwork aspect, and players who will give everything for the team.
I'm looking forward to seeing the new team and squad take shape, and hopefully we will have a really exciting season with promotion at the end of it. I've stopped short of mentioning having an entertaining team but maybe that just might be an unexpected bonus.

Nothing if any substance. Just talk. I have no view on it yet. Nothing changes until we see who's in and who's out. Until then, with pre-season looming now, we still have the worst squad in all four divisions. I'm not interested in anything until that fact changes. Oh do fuck off, you tedious melt.

Winner of the worst comment of summer right here and its still early June. Pathetic.

I mean, as far as over-dramatic statements go, that's a pretty good one. It's perfectly true. Last season we couldn't beat League Two teams. The sum total of our activity this close season has been to announce that we are keeping Haugaard. This is not the moment for taking things nice and slowly. We need a major clearout and rebuild at the club, and we need to urgently signal our intentions to the rest of the footballing world. So far we've announced Haugaard. Not exactly a great start. Some of us seem to think all we have to is turn up and we will win this league. Such people are in for a massive shock. Just wait until the four goal to kings carry on into the championship, because if we don't do anything and Haugaard is our keeper that's exactly where it's going. Other teams are making moves, we are merely talking. As usual. So which of our Championship rivals have made a move? When was the last time you saw Haugaard play? Do you think it's possible for a young player to improve? Do you seriously expect him to be our first choice keeper this year? Do you seriously think we are not going to sign any players this summer?
You are right with one thing. It won't be easy to win the league. Pretty much everything else you have said is rubbish.

You would truly hope so FFS. There’s 20 days before the players come back FFS Did he mention where they are having the Christmas do? What's he been doing while he's been sunning himself at our expense the lazy twat?

Watching his press conference he is miles better than Hughes or Lambert - you can see his intelligence level, you can almost envisage the plan in his head.
Im happy.
Now onto the ins and outs.

Spoke really well without actually saying anything of substance. Perfect modern day manager press conference performance.

Like it. Hard not to get the feeling that he's that man to get shit done. Get everyone's heads out their arses from last season and knuckle the fuck down. That’s what I took from it too, he’s not going to let incompetence ruin his reputation.

Can't be arsed to listen to it all but has there been any mention on there or anywhere at all of his backroom staff. Bearing in mind Fat Frank appears to be bringing his own staff in at the Sheepshaggers.

Some guys will come with him, some wont.

I thought the presser was well balanced I enjoyed it a lot. Especially the bits about the team ethic, giving everything and if you don't want to play then bye bye. I also like that he's going to mix his backroom team up a little. Be nice to see if he can find room for some experienced ex players.
Oh yeah and I could understand him.

I think he speaks very well and he reminds me a lot of Dyche. He has the honesty angle about him that he will talk straight and say things how he sees them. I'm excited for the new season and can't wait for it to start. Have a gut feeling that despite the hoof* he will do well here. *Joke.
