Michael Flynn has left Swindon. Sorry! Cruel but couldn’t resist. And besides some one else would have done it! Link to STFC website

If only we had a manager to sack! Instead we have a head coach and a director of football.

Did Roland realise that when he thought it was a good idea? In theory these two roles should be stand alone positions, so their fates should not be intertwined. The problem is how the system has been implemented here. The DoF, the head coach and the assistant head coach seem to have indistinct overlapping responsibilities. Because they are so tightly bound together they stand or fall as one.

Wasn’t Flynn linked with us at one point when he was at Newport and doing a decent job. I loose track but maybe after Hurst left us?

will they be resorting to a DOF as traditional manager isn't working for them ? maybe they should just get Paul Hurst with a mission to keep them up
