Jimmy Walker gone... on 10:12 - Apr 15 with 4243 views | Steve_M | Not really a great surprise, I would imagine Gill will be gone at the end of the season too. He may have improved Holy's kicking a bit but there's not too much of anything else - although it might just be that there isn't enough there to improve much. |  |

Gill seems a bit different though, in that he actually comes across quite well and a level headed guy. Taylor just seemed to echo anything Lambert said, and Walker just seemed to say odd things on Twitter. We all know about Norwood on there but you kind of expect coaching staff to be above that, don't you? |  |

He’s at Forest now, isn’t he? Was with Cook at Wigan, so would make sense. |  | |  |

Top man Malcolm. Sent me a really lovely message after I was banned. |  | |  |
Jimmy Walker gone... on 10:30 - Apr 15 with 3882 views | N2_Blue | Good move. Never warmed to him. Apparently he was well liked but can't see that his coaching has helped improved much. I know intelligence shouldn't come into with coaching but personally I would prefer to employ coaches that are bright as it helps when it comes to things said. Was never impressed by JWs comments and don't think coaches should be engaging with social media either. Wish him well but glad it's no longer going to be here. |  |

I would agree with you on Gill, just that with Richardson likely to join plus Roberts and Dyer apparently impressing Cook that might be one coach too many. Walker was spot on with his comment that it's a crap league but, yes, that isn't really how a coach should be interacting. |  |

Jimmy Walker gone... on 10:32 - Apr 15 with 3831 views | chrismakin | Gill next Whilst he may speak well etc etc, I wouldn't want to work with someome from the previous managements regime. PC talks about Trust, I'd find it hard to have any with Gill and the players, especially after Gills 3 win involvement |  |

Does it really matter about their intellect? As long as they are a good coach and can convey their ideas, their intelligence has nothing to do with with. Day to day intelligence and football intelligence are 2 very different things. |  | |  |

Malcolm is a legend, I was coached by him for years, great coach, lovely bloke. When we was presumably earning good money coaching the town keepers by day, he would travel down from Cambridge a couple of nights a week to coach a load of enthusiastic kids at Kesgrave/Northgate. You won't find many top coaches doing that in their spare time. [Post edited 15 Apr 2021 10:35]

Can you now send a reply, and after thanking him, can you ask him to get on the phone to PC |  |

I still don't really see what Roberts brings to the party, apart from moral back-up for Cook in the early days. Very raw as a coach. Doesn't mean he won't be good, but I suspect if Richardson had been available he wouldn't be here. |  |

Two slightly different things, but still correlated. None of the correlations I see work in Walkers favour... |  | |  |

I do wonder if Roberts role will change this summer. |  |
