Hill and Coleman on NWT on 18:53 - Jan 23 with 3262 views | Shun | When asked if he'd stay on beyond this season, Hilly replied, "It's plausible." | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 18:55 - Jan 23 with 3238 views | SuddenLad | Coleman hinted that he knew he was on his way from the moment Hill was available. He then said he would have preferred that the club had said ' Keith Hill is now available and we want to get him back. I would have just shook hands and said O.K." Seemed a bit miffed that it happened like it did, but didn't moan too much. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 18:56 - Jan 23 with 3233 views | Ralphs12 | That's something that worries me. But, if it goes well the Barnsley experience could be something that helps us. Just listening to the Dale player interview and that fills me with abit more confidence long term. Speaking of sports science for example "will it return" ........"eventually...yes" [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:02 - Jan 23 with 3185 views | 442Dale | The initial interviews point to a reinvigorated and slightly different Keith Hill. Just little things, but a lot of focus on talking about the club. Much more 2007 than 2010-2011. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:03 - Jan 23 with 3171 views | D_Alien | This is JC simply doing what all sacked managers do, and trying to put a gloss on it! Is he seriously implying that if we were in a play-off position (or looking like we'd got a centre-back in hell's chance of getting there), he'd wouldn't still be manager of the Dale? Can't blame him for making it look a straightforward choice between him and Hilly, but we know the reality is very different. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:04 - Jan 23 with 3156 views | Ralphs12 | Totally agree, lost count of how many times he said "restore faith in the badge" on dale player. | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:07 - Jan 23 with 3122 views | electricblue | Anybody notice hills swagger walking towards the media and down the steps.. | |
| My all time favourite Dale player Mr Lyndon Symmonds |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:11 - Jan 23 with 3092 views | D_Alien | He used to run like that as a player, hence being outpaced by many a forward! | |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:17 - Jan 23 with 3043 views | _dezzy | I hope Hilly can get some discipline into the team, its been shocking under coleman | |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 19:23 - Jan 23 with 3011 views | SuddenLad | We know the reality, but to be fair, I think JC came across as quite calm and there was that 'air of inevitability' about the way he talked about it. I think he knew the game was up. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 20:43 - Jan 23 with 2828 views | SaxonDale | May just be me but I get the impression that Hill will be here putting himself in the shop window until the end of the season, then if a club that appeals to him in turns of size and location during May is available then he will be an attractive-and free proposition. Also looks to me that if this is the case Beech/Ellis are already being groomed as Hills successors to enable the transition to go as smoothly as possible. | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 20:48 - Jan 23 with 2796 views | SalwaDale | I think you could read that into it. He won't jump ship too quickly though and if things don't go well for Flicker don't rule out a reunion of Hillcroft. Even if Hill does go in the summer I suspect it will have been worth it. | |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 20:54 - Jan 23 with 2775 views | SaxonDale | I think his failure at Barnsley will probably make him more patient and more selective in terms of considering his new opportunities, which will definitely work in our clubs favour. Completely agree with that last sentence. | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 21:08 - Jan 23 with 2704 views | 442Dale | Yes, Hill could go again, but there's a real chance that this is the opportunity for him to actually make a mark on football by actually staying with one club. He's seen what happens elsewhere and he also knows that achieving success the right way is all too rare. Could be way, way out, but there's something unique that could be about to begin here. That's not putting the pressure on and saying we have to finish top 7, but it's akin to starting a brand new game of Chanpionship Manager or whatever it's called now; anything and everything is possible... and you know you won the Champions League on last year's game. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 21:21 - Jan 23 with 2639 views | dale1968 | FFS you lot get a grip the guys not in the job more than a day. | |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 21:22 - Jan 23 with 2627 views | 442Dale | Exactly, but he's made a decent start, eh? | |
| |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 21:25 - Jan 23 with 2619 views | R17ALE | My hunch is that Flicker has been given till the end of the season, and so has Hill. Therefore, it would be possible for them to re-unite in the summer. Personally, I think Hill has enough about him to shake things up on his own, sign players, and establish his authority on the rabble he will inherit. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 21:37 - Jan 23 with 2560 views | Newbury_Dale | Great opportunity for Beach to transfer his good training ground work with the youth team into senior football without the pressure of having his name above the door. | | | |
Fllicker will be our manager come August 2013 on 21:59 - Jan 23 with 2493 views | barnsley1 | I'm pretty sure of that, he's like Keith hill, but without the crap bits like slagging off a fan base, the lifeblood of the club, not attacking the opposition and just playing across the back four, losing lots of football games and being a total tit in interviews. Very interested to see how things work out for keef. Everything in his interview suggests he was out of his depth in the championship and couldn't handle the pressure. When he touted himself for the Leeds, burley, Blackburn job, any job that came up I did wonder how the hell he would cope with the huge pressures of the job when he couldn't cope at oakwell and were not exactly real Madrid. | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 22:33 - Jan 23 with 2445 views | olympicdale | I think Hill does have a strong feeling towards this club, he's been here over 10 years as a player/coach/manager, an what i got from the brief interview was he would be interested in staying on past May, i think the past 18 months he will have learnt a lot, and I hope we can hang on to him for next season to see him push the club onwards. The main thing with his return, is the board MUST now take what hill implements into the club, to heart, theyve got a second chance now, and they must not let it slip away after this year, regardless who is ib charge. I hope we can keep Hill for next year as this club desperately needs stability. | |

Hill and Coleman on NWT on 22:36 - Jan 23 with 2425 views | Frog | Word from a senior player is that Beech is an excellent coach, training and skills wise, but when he was in charge his team talks were dire, went on for ages and the most boring and uninspiring ever. | | | |
Hill and Coleman on NWT on 22:52 - Jan 23 with 2381 views | olympicdale | Beech will never be a good manager, youve either got it or you havent, no matter what Hill may teach him, I dont want to see Beech as first team coach, he worked hard to undermine Steve Eyre when he was here, niggling and picking at him from behind the scenes, he wont dare try that with Hill, he does a good job with the kids, why do we insist on thinking he can do a job as manager. | |

Fllicker will be our manager come August 2013 on 23:06 - Jan 23 with 2357 views | AtThePeake | Well, for a start he'd have a bigger budget and would have taken over a squad of better players. | |
