A good insight. I really didn't know the money that's paid at 3rd division clubs

For a feller who spends so much time name checking players who are in the championship / prem now you'd have thought our Mickey was a regular there. I found out in 20 years in football he used to bang in 30 a season and seems to have done no wrong wherever he's been.
Looking forward to next week and his insights from his first season here.

I look forward to listening today Really enjoyed the first part - Micky spoke really well & clearly well known & respected in the lower league circuit. Looking forward to the next part, hopefully some insight into last season.

Interesting anecdotes concerning Dean Henderson and Sam Smith. The Henderson/McKeown anecdote was insightful, but not in a good way. Made Moore look awful, because I don't know how he felt Bignot would be good for us (beyond solely wanting to help a mate out). It's baffling that Bignot has found another job in the football league. There were rumours the players didn't like him last season, and I can't say I'm surprised based on that story. And Matt Taylor looks even worse - how did he not insist on his own assistant? Its not like he was doing a Conte where you have 8 backroom staff following you. Surely he should've stood up for himself and demanded his own choice of assistant? Even if Bignot had been employed as well as a supplementary coach. Think it sums up how desperate we were for a manager, and how desperate Taylor was to take such an opportunity. No manager/head coach with self-worth, value and experience would've agreed to that.

Made even worse by Moore relentlessly calling James Mckeown 'Deano' for some reason, several times referring to Deano and Dean. Bizarre rambling.

I really think Moore comes across very badly in this interview.
The days of the jocular ‘I’m a football man, I’m a bit of a character’ belong firmly in the 90s.
His stories almost all undermine managers he worked with, patronising them as ‘not a coach’ or ‘not knowing the league’ while good old Micky was there to save the day.
The various initiatives he describes - ‘let’s go 3-5-2; the wingers can’t hit a barn door’ or ‘we’re going under 25s’ are Sunday league rubbish. Winning 1 game in 10 as a manager is ok cos they were only losing all these matches by one goal.
One really good way to make the most of a contract at Shrewsbury Town would be to have a bit of a slippery approach but to constantly flatter the chairman. That would work, I think.

I really don’t have a clue how this bloke still has a job
How much valuable budget is he swallowing up? And what service is he providing in return for that?
His manager and assistant appointments were appalling. 90% of his signings were appalling.

What decent manager do you really think they could have attracted? It had to be someone unproven & a gamble . I do agree Bignot was a poor move, putting his mate in a job though , Taylor should have been free to bring his own team in.

His manager and assistant appointments were appalling. 90% of his signings were appalling. 90% is generous. I’d argue that Benning is the only decent signing that he’s made. Coaching staff included. Too early to judge this season’s crop. If you’d given a monkey a dart, then stuck up a list of affordable players on a dartboard and told it to choose our signings that way, then I’m sure even a couple of them would’ve been a success.

So the bloke is damned if he does give an interview and damned if he doesn’t! Not really. The context of the interview was an arrogant feller who seems to have no wrong wherever he's been, always there to save the day etc whilst being quite unpleasant about numerous staff and players he worked with. Extremely intrigued to here the second part though I have a strong feeling he will extensively mention the word luck. To be honest if we are going down a Director of Football route I'd far rather someone who doesn't put all their hopes on luck for success.

Fair play to him for doing the interview. It was enjoyable but probably in the same way Tom Flanagan was entertaining on Radio Shropshire, saying things he really shouldn’t while still working.
Just like so much of the stuff on the Jon Parkin podcast he does, it would be interesting to hear the other side of all of these stories.
Michael Duff for one would love to put his argument across regards having no knowledge of the lower leagues, and Bignot of his decision to promise everyone a go in the team being a misjudgment etc.
Whatever you think, Moore has a strong personality and at some point it’ll definitely be another to clash with Roland’s. I doubt there will be a want or need to ‘cuddle’ then.
Looking forward to the next one.
