Especially when you are looking at Man U side that was 1 or 2 most seasons. Does anyone really think CFG will appoint an ex Manchester United reserves coach.

silva10 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I would be very surprised if Warren Joyce was appointed as manager. His only senior appointment at Wigan didn't go well and whenever I saw his side against ours in the reserves they where very negative.

moops Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) I would rather Damian Mori, 6 years now NPL winner. Not convinced this guy is any better.

Melburnian Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Warren Joyce would be a disaster. Step brother lives in Wigan, reckons he's one of the worst coaches he's seen. Boring football and clearly had no idea. Surely not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No appointment announced yet, but people already implying that someone like Warren Joyce isn't good enough for us. He was good enough to be given a 3+ years contract at Wigan and inherited a squad put together by a previous manager and wasn't able to turn things around - by my reading that's his only failure. Kenny Lowe - just as an example - had experience with glamour clubs Gateshead and Barrow before coming to Perth as an Assistant Coach, and isn't doing too bad with Perth so far. CFG aren't happy with the culture at Melbourne City, and they're looking for a coach who has the qualities to deal with that. IMO we should wait until an announcement comes and give whoever it is a fighting chance, rather than writing someone off based on what is so far a rumour. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides for the shambles at Wigan (which was him doing the best he could with the crap team put out in front of him), he's had successful appointments at Hull (saving them from relegation), Antwerp and Man United Youth. To me, this looks like a very solid appointment if true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Wigan Chairman "Results and performances have simply not been up to standard often enough in recent matches. "Although we acknowledge the difficulties faced in managing a team in a league where we are competing against clubs with much larger budgets, the nature of some of our recent defeats, especially against close rivals, has fallen short in terms of what we as a club, and all our supporters, expect." That's about as firm a firing as you will hear. normally all you get is thank you for your services. But no, it was that bad at Wigan that the chairman came out and dumped on him.
