Think we got lucky with this appointment. Hugely encouraging that he wanted to get straight back on the horse when no doubt he could've carried on getting paid by Rotherham to sit on his backside, particularly with it nearing the busy Christmas period! UTG
Edit: Also plenty of encouraging messages from Rotherham supporters being passed on.

Brings good luck with him straight away. Crewe game cancelled so a great opportunity to work with the players on the training ground.

Quite excited to be honest. No idea how it will turn out - found out long ago you just have to wait and see; some managers are a perfect "fit" and others just don't work out. End of the day, he's managed in the Championship, has a promotion on his CV, likes to develop young players, has demonstrated he can get teams playing cracking football... not sure what more we can really ask for to be honest! Whether or not he's ultimately successful, only time will tell. For those worried about "lesser" contacts than JB - maybe. But for me, that should really be down to your scouting network - and that's where we need to focus our attentions now; sorting that out. Get a decent scout network in place and the lack of contacts will be irrelevant. Welcome Matty Taylor! UTG! Good post , pretty much what I was about to write so you’ve saved me the bother ! Welcome to the club Matt Taylor UTG |

Mix with a few Exeter City fans.Well thought of but they seem to doubt Browns value to us it seems. Me too. Apart from flashes, he hasn't looked interested. I'm wondering who exactly Barton thought he was an upgrade on - Lofty maybe, but at least Lofty was trying his best, even if it was poop! |

Excellent first interview Agreed. Spoke very well. His run of upcoming league games doesn't come much tougher so if we can pick up 8-10 points from the next 5 or 6 games he'd have done well. Come on the gas. |

Great interview, definitely a good talker, no waffling there whatsoever. Can imagine him interviewing well and why he was the boards choice.
Looking forward to this next chapter and seeing what we can achieve in remainder of this season.
Good luck MT

A couple of things that jumped out to me were his comments about his teams being aggressive and that we haven’t kept enough clean sheets or scored enough goals. We aren’t really an aggressive side, I could probably name a handful of players who I think would be termed aggressive. The clean sheets and lack of goals I think could indicate a change in style from him when compared to how we’ve been playing under Barton.

Will be interesting to see who stays who goes both on and off the field
After the Tisdale appointment I'm not getting over excited just yet lets see how he does first
I'm being open minded in regards to his appointment

Not bringing any staff with him, has to work with who is already in place. Quite interesting but also a bit of a concern for me. Should’ve been allowed to have his own staff that he can trust and that know his style of play etc.
