..in the McKenna appointment? Ashton, presumably?

Whoever it was is due some credit.

Ashton is currently Shrodinger's CEO. It'll be his fault when we don't go up this season but it'll be all his work when we piss the division next season.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

In his KOA interview he said he had told O’Leary he didn’t love the list of candidates he had, and O’Leary (and one other who I’ve forgotten) reminded him that he has a track record of giving promising coaches their first chance as a manager.

So yup, mostly Ashton, and others as well.

everything so far said from Ashton and McKenna makes sense, Ashton is far more understanding of football than any of Evans previous cronies

I know a friend who works in marketing was telling me that Ashton is very good commercially, you get that feeling when you look at Brizzle and their new stadium, their new badge etc, they seem a lot slicker than they once were

Brizzle fans seem to have an axe to grind with him for whatever reason but from an outsider looking in, I see a League One sized club who would yoyo between the Championship and League One for years

They were not a serious threat for a Premier League push at any stage

They now seem to be a club who have the ability maybe to kick on, their fans seem to expect that level of performance and I think based on history, that's a little bit delusional, they can't have been in the top flight since the 70's or 80's?

Ashton has been part of that transformation, whether they like that or not, he has moved them from being that yoyo club to being an established Championship club who could kick on so be careful what you wish for Brizzle fans!


What I am expecting now is us to have upward momentum for some time and give them a wave when we shoot past them, onto bigger things


Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

I suspect KM may have an agent who might've let it be known he could be interested, and Ashton took it from there.

Certainly a refreshing appointment rather than the... 'that guy won a promotion once...' approach.

Cant forget the owners and O'Leary. None of this would be possible without their significant backing.
