Surely Chris has done more than enough to earn another contract. He has been immense for us this season. However sentiment doesn't appear in buckles vocabulary and probably rightly so.
With Brabin on his way out of Cambridge it has made me think that if i had to choose between keeping hargreaves or buckle, it would be hargreaves every time.
Interesting that it's Brabin that's getting poached and not PB.

The man gets promotion, and you write this crap less than 24 hours afterwards. Grow up.

Poxy amateurs, Mr Shaw. If it is Blackpool as reported, I feel sorry for their fans. I think most right thinking TUFC fans (head-nodders if you must)would be gutted if our Board allowed an approach for Buckle now. Burton have appoined Paul Peschisolido as manager. |

Burton have appoined Paul Peschisolido as manager.  This strikes me as the sort of appointment a club with all but two of an aging squad out of contract who hope that with his "contacts" who will be able to attract a load of out of contract reserve and academy rejects from the big clubs to fill their playing squad would make. The same mistake Wrexham made with Dean Saunders who's cobbled together squad of a similar ilk fell apart spectacularly after Christmas. If it's BSP appoint a manager who knows the BSP, if it's League 2 go for a man who knows that level inside out. Burton's Chairman would have been better served talking to and getting advice from Colin Lee (who has a home in the town incidentally) and he would have pointed him down the same path as he himself took with Paul Buckle. There are some good men fully experienced in League 2 looking for work, men who can get the best out of footballers of a certain ability; men who have already achieved at that level. Martin Ling who did so well at Leyton Orient springs to mind as just one of those, Mickey Adams another. Fancy putting Paul Peschisolido in charge when he has NEVER managed before and has just an Assistant Manager's post in the Republic of Ireland on his CV in what is a vital, vital first ever season in full time football and the Football League to boot! I predict we will leave Burton miles behind in the Football League next season! |

After all, Gianfranco Zola hasn't done "such" a bad job in his first managerial job at West Ham!! I know the scale of the job, spending power, etc are worlds apart........but the guy might take to it like a duck to water - stranger things have happened in football, as well you know!! |

zola was on the coaching staff at Calgliari for a good few seasons though romford. Peschisolido only retired from the game 2 years ago? and so isn't going to be that experienced, but only time will tell i guess.

According to Wiki, he only began coaching in 2006 - as assistant to the Italian U21 boss Casiraghi. He was still playing when he returned to Cagliari from Chelsea in 2003. Even so, coaching OCCASIONALLY with a national side is nothing like managing a side ON A DAILY BASIS. West Ham is still Zola's first full time managerial post, whichever way you look at it. Anyway, getting back on topic, GIVE GREAVSIE ANOTHER CONTRACT - HE MORE THAN DESERVES IT! |

You could argue that they did the same thing when they appointed Nigel Clough as manager all those years ago. It's certainly a brave move considering it will be their first season in the league. I guess as they are part time at the moment they'll have to try and attract younger and cheaper players in. I have to say that I'm surprised that they didn't keep Roy Mac on for longer whether he wanted to stay or not. I wonder whether he'll end up back at Cambridge especially as their chairman has been quoted today saying that they'll be on a reduced budget this year. |
