I've always been against appointing Gareth as manager, BUT it does feel that he is the only one that could bring the fan base together in support. Nobody could argue that his record doesn't deserve for him to be in charge at a higher level.
I'm not sure why, but I don't feel that November was the right time to bring him back to LR although now is. Perhaps because we will give him a free ride for the remainder of this season, something we wouldn't have done so if it had gone wrong for him following Beale.
For what little I think an interview is worth, I enjoyed his welcome to Rangers one, but his farewell to WW was even better. I can't imagine many clubs saying goodbye to an outgoing manager as they did!
his is a ludicrously knee jerk appointment identical to when they brought olly back, same situation same reasons.
Didn't work then, won't work now. We'll be looking for his replacement in under a year and paying off another 3 year contract.
Couldn't disagree more: this guy has done a brilliant job at Wycombe with no money building a team spirit our club has not had since the Warnock era. Your comparison to Olly's second stint is embarrassingly wrong: a better comparison would be his first spell and we know how well that went when we were at rock bottom when he joined.
What a guy. There's no doubting his passion for our club. Certainly after watching his interview with us and his two goodbyes to the Wycombe players/staff and also his goodbye with Richard Dobson on the WW twitter - well it was quite emotional. None of us know what is going to happen over the next 13 games - but one thing we do know - if his passion does not have some affect on our players - then nothing will. So two things. If we go down then there's a big clear-out. If we stay up then some of our players might survive - especially Seny, Dunne, Dickie (he needs a confidence boost), Paal, Field, Chair and yes Kakay (he gives his all for the club). Dykes may also benefit. We need players who can play 30+ games a year. But one thing is for certain and I'm sure it will happen - GA stays regardless.
This sums up a lot for me.Saying goodbye to the players, staff and fans shows the class of those 2 men.Some tears too just shows how much that club meant to them . GA looks like a gunslinger from the old west.Just throw on a Stetson ,buckle on the gunbelt ,climb on the horse and he is ready to go.
Goose bumps listening to that interview, much like when Ollie returned. Lets hope its not just sentiment.
Im hoping that unlike when a lowly Prem team has a couple of managers and they mess it up and then bring in a manager that has Championship know how so if they do get relegated he has can bring them straight back. I wonder if this was in the minds of Les/Hoos re L1? - Im kidding??
Saw this on the Wycomber tweet.....
"Everyone at Wycombe Wanderers will forever remember the memories created by — and the legacy left by — Gareth Ainsworth and Richard Dobson throughout their time at Adams Park, and wishes the two of them, plus Josh, every success for the next chapter of their careers."
The two of them, plus Josh??? - Is the Rat back as well?

Reading and watching all the coverage of his appointment has made me, like many others, thoroughly emotional. If that energy powers a rocking Loftus Rd, and gets absorbed into the squad, then we're going to be just fine. And possibly onto something special.
Yes this is precisely the sort of blindly emotional gibberish the club probably want us all to be distracted by...but there was zero of this feeling around Critchley, it's got to count for something? We shall see.
Yeah, he was on the shortlist in the summer, so why not go straight to him after Beale left?
I'm excited because he's done his time in the lower leagues and has energy and enthusiasm to burn. My worry is he's dependent on less capable people who lack his experience to build the squad.
Why?
I am guessing we got money for the ðŸ and NC was a free agent so if there was not much to choose between NC and GA then why pay comp to WW.
Either that or the club still had the direct horrible football opinions about GA’s approach and now we have run out of options and have to placate the fans
Welcome and here's wishing him the very best. He'll need it, as trying to motivate the detritus brought into the club by the pot-bellied one, Paal excepted, will be a huge challenge in itself.
In that regard, may I suggest that he introduces the shirkers to Ade Akinfenwa, who will tell them a few home truths about how fortunate they all are to be ostensibly playing at this level, and contrast that to the harsh realities of playing in the lower leagues where many players are on contracts of no more than a year's duration. Something he experienced as a player for long spells in his career.
Better still get Akinfenwa to 'persuade' the poor little mites that they need to respect how fortunate they are!
