Fantastic, we have a new manager and glad the board had the sense to install a popular man who knows the club but now we need a No 2, and when do we look.

Nah - too much baggage and a confrontational type.

Jim will know who he wants.

We trusted the board to appoint the right manager and now we can trust the new manager to bring in the right assistant.

My money is still on a certain Ged Brannon.

Wouldn't surprise me if a certain former manager has rung Jimbo to offer his congratulations.

He's said he's made "one or two" phone calls so he obviously has people in mind. It's probably his most important decision. All good managers need excellent assistants that compliment them and provide what they don't.
