Stuart Gray

[Swiss Toni]

With Jokanovic losing his job at Fulham does anyone know if Gray has gone too as he was one of his coaches? Bruce could do a lot worse than appoint him as his #2 with his regulars of Agnew and Clemence on the coaching team. Not sure he'd want to come back to a club under a regime that previously sacked him but he'd do a sound job as the training ground was his comfort zone by all accounts.

I realise that Bruce had Colin Calderwood as his assistant previously but he's just taken upna management role at Cambridge Utd. Not sure I'd want Bullen in that role personally.

Shame they didn't keep him on once getting to the PL.

[steveger]

Let's move on as such....

Gray leaves Fulham in July 

their defence is pantsified in August

Costs Joko his job

could cost the Riverats Prem status

Keep up pal. If you such an expert on you would keep or not, how come you didn't know about Gray when the rest of the football world did. Glad we don't have to rely on your expert personal opinion. that's assuming you are giving us your expert opinion.

Why wouldn’t you want bullpen at the club? I never understand folk who say this...I would say he’s been the least of our worries over recent times.

Yeh I tend to agree with you. He loves the club, made it known he wants to stay, and he's stepped in a couple of times now to hold the fort under difficult circumstances. You need some sort of thread, stability, in the background. A sounding board if you like. Can't comment on his coaching abilities, but he's served under enough managers to have been found out if he wasn't up to it.

By all accounts very nice bloke but not much of a coach. He was moved from Academy into present role as was no good at job. Think is purely motivational rather than technical know how. He should have learned something over last few years and acknowledged this in press conference. I suspect its if you want a high paid cheer leader. Think he could remain until contract expires. Current coach being done by Dutch bloke Remy.

Bullen is obvioulsy a motivator and a coach. Not a bad combination to have in your ranks. Probably on 100k tops so a no brainer for me.

Aye, he has to be the most underrated bloke in football. Would be delighted to see him back here as a coach.

Yes, they probably just gave him his coaching badges despite his lack of technical know how.

 

Keep Bullen in some capacity...dont ask me what though.

 

p.s. Gray wont come back as Chansiri would see it as a loss of face. The first of many mistakes by our leader.

Just because you have a qualification does not mean you can do a job. Jos had his badges.

Peter shreeves...he never held a grudge...You could ask hinm to leave, ask him to come back, ask him for a cup of tea...ask him to run you to the shops...

I liked peter shreeves, he held no grudges...unless you asked him to hold you a grudge...
