I like the positives from Stubbs….
Sounds like a level headed bloke….no nonsense type of manager and already asking of the five out of contract
players to say yes/no come Friday….well done for this…we don't need holding to ransom so sign or leave...
Previous players close season dragged it out but this time we have a manager who sounds like he needs to move on and forge his ideas quickly in order to create a team that will bond quickly…
As for Doolan following Stubbs even though he was offered the Hibs Manager job speaks volumes for him…well done fella..
It goes for making Stubbs job easier knowing he has a number 2 who knows how he works and what he strives for….
Keen..mean and hungry so I suppose it all stands in good stead……what's needed now is patience!
Don't get the blog on if we lose a few games first off ….show your support and let things cement…this isn't a Neil Redfearn type of man he sounds like he means business who won't blame what he's been left with….
UTM!
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
To be fair he has a pre season to get his team together players he wants and a style of play he wants.
So this would need enough be his team
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
WLB….Three weeks have passed since the season ended…..he's brand new to everything…the chairman the current team..players out of contract undecided…there are managers out there in our league who still manage the same club from last season so know the score what's going on around them…..he has a lot on his plate so it's not as smooth as you paint it pal...
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
Hope all five signs tomorrow. Cos I don't want rufc having to find another 10 players. Five more should be enough
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
listening to his interview he came across like he didn't want to keep all of the 5, I'd be surprised if he let Derbyshire and Broadfoot go not so must the other 3
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
Seems a decent choice to me but I sense we might have signed another Redfearn, a manager whose plans could be severely restricted by budgets and/or injuries.
Maybe it's a lucky manager we need more than a technically brilliant one.

A decent post jolly ,but I think it's all about man management,look what warnock did with a bunch of no hopers
re: I like the positives from Stubbs….
True Villamiller but Warnock did have more than one lucky result in his short time with us.
Also his managerial skills of signing players under our budget restrictions were never tested.

Only Kirk & Derbs good enough. Wood on the bench. Other 2 Kelly can he keep fit? Best there's something not there, can't describe it but its not there.
