Lets hope it goes a bit better than Rory's coaching spell so far.

How good is he at coaching? Lets hope he knows what he's doing, can't say I'm a big fan of over loading on ex players over people with experience, but they have to start somewhere I guess.

Next we need Huth and Etherington back and we're all set I'm not sure if Huth would be good coaching really - maybe he would. Etheres I suspect would find his West Ham ties stronger than the Stoke ones. Or he might follow Pulis, wherever he goes.

Are we a retirement home? Shouldn't we go for the best coaches we can get rather than just ex players?

There does seem to be an assumption on here that every single Stoke player that was ever half decent would want to return as a coach. Crouch has been suggested for heavens sake!
SJW could do a good job though. How do I know that? I don't.

Are you qualified to question the competence/suitability of someone who will have completed their coaching badges and who is starting on the bottom rung of the ladder? Who is to say that an ex player isn’t as competent/suitable as other candidates at this level? Should we just exclude ex SCFC players?

Lets hope it goes a bit better than Rory's coaching spell so far. Think about it. That’s a bit of a silly comment to make without any internal knowledge of what’s being going on behind the scenes nor his actual coaching ability.

What does fuck me off is every time someone leaves who's done well for us, someone pipes up that we should take them back as a member of the backroom staff.

Possibly an unpopular opinion, but of all the ex players in recent times the one I’d back to become a good coach or manager eventually would be Glen Whelan

The classic one being "get Poolis back and move him upstairs".
Absolutely priceless.

Yep, there is definitely a feeling here that we should be a retirement home for ex players.

You might be right or perhaps GW will simply want out of football. Who knows what the future holds. Id wish him every success in whichever route he takes in the future

I don't really get your point. Who else was interviewed? Was there an interview? Who does the interviews if there are any? I'd suggest you know as much as I do about this process. And that's the square root of fuck all.

I just think Whelan strikes me as the kind of bloke who could make it as a manager, I don’t care about former players coming back. More often than not it doesn’t work out anyway
