Lomas613 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Some fans moaning that he’ll be in charge but what I don’t get is he was working alongside Bruce remember and the fitness coach etc is still with us so all bullen would be doing is continuing the progress Bruce started surely maybe with a twist of his own ideas but other things he might roll with ?? Everyone believed Bruce would get us there so bullen surely won’t change too many things. But a new manager would change a lot more surely. So if we was all optimistic under Bruce then stay optimistic with bullen I am 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concrete Owl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 The more this drags on the more inclined I am in giving him a go. At least he wants it. I’m not sure Hughton does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanzaroteowl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Had his apprenticeship under several differing managers now. Could be a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanye West Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 The 3-0 home defeat against Burton scarred me forever having Bullen in charge. I love the bloke, but we need a proper manager in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modboy Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Rather we went for a proven manager but if he's the best available give it him today and let him crack on with building a first team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_D Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 a manager like Bruce knows how and when to change things when things are not going as planned. Bullen has had almost zero experience of this, only being a caretaker manager for short periods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Bullen is not a manager. A good coach yes but giving him the managers job would be a very poor decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we was all optimistic under Bruce then stay optimistic with bullen I am I think the main issue is the uncertainty. It's immeasurable what effect it has on the club (if any) but to know we had stability either with Bullen appointed or someone else, would have been nice to start the season. We hope DC has called it right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't exude with confidence, or at least didn't then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womble Owl Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I don't see the problem either. Just because a manager has had some success at a previous club doesn't mean he will be a success here. For me, the "Fit" is more important, and I think Lee Bullen "fit's" us. Partner him with a good coaching team and I think he will do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learned how to use FIFA09 to recruit and break players under Carlos Learned how not to manage under Jos Worked with Bruce for 2 months I think the job is too big for him right now, the work Bruce started needs experience to see it through. That said, compared to some of the names linked I'd rather appoint Bullen in a heartbeat. If it was Bullen, would like to see an experinced DOF working with him. Needs a guiding hand and someone to take on responsibility for recruitment etc (and definitely not Paxo) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever the pessimist Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I think he is probably too close / pally to the players and it would be difficult changing that to manager mode - players need to be happy, yes, but if they get too comfortable (as I suspect they did with CC) then it's a problem.

Bullen Vs Rowett, Pulis, Coleman, Pearson etc then it's Bullen for me Bullen Vs GVB then its GVB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it was pretty clear he didn't agree with what Jos was doing as he changed the formation, personnel and tactics the instant that Jos left and he got the gig last season.

So if we was all optimistic under Bruce then stay optimistic with bullen I am I tend to agree with this. The timing of Bruce's departure has made getting a new quality manager in very difficult as we were half way through a planned out pre-season programme working towards a defined style of play, and there are fewer top managers available at this point in the cycle. I honestly think dropping in an outsider coach who will want to impose entirely new ideas on the squad at this stage is far more of a risk than going with the coaching team we've got. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
