Excellent read.

He'll do for me.

How do I place a bet on his appointment ?

im sure it was said when David Artell was playing, he'd the highest IQ in Football or something?

Good read in his time out it seems he has reflected a lot, will the inner him actually change? Well I don’t think that has to, its more about time and place, when to put an arm around someone and when to gee somebody up and recognising your the manager not a player anymore that thrived on being pumped up. Even with the situation as it is at Morecambe I think he would come, the back room team, if they stay are doing a good job and that will take off the pressure he felt previously. Let’s see who else throws their hat into the ring but with a big 2nd round FA Cup coming up we need to make sure we don’t slip and put efforts into getting into the 3rd round and hopefully a big club so we can all have a great day out and the club can pocket some good money, Less Jason’s !!

I really hope the board reach out to Dave. A club legend and decent manager

A very well written piece about management. Every manager, in our out of football, works differently but making the time to really consider what you are doing, why you are doing it and how you are doing it is very important. I used to spend 20 minutes first thing in a morning with my office door shut for such 'thinking 'time' which some found amusing but to me it was very important.

Be happy if we gave this guy the chance. I don't think we'd regret it.

Interesting point about taking some time out prior to a working day.

One of the printing companies who I spent many happy years at until they were taken over used to insist that all its marketing services people to take a 20 minute mid afternoon break to recharge the batteries irrespective of where they were nationwide. It was a common sight in motorway service car parks to see the number of people sat behind their car steering wheel with their eyes closed. I sometimes had to do 4 return trips in a day from my company in Kendal to Chester's financial district ( that was 20 years ago when the M6 was a doddle )and it took the edge of me if I didn't have that mid afternoon chilling out session.

Happy days.....

Dave Artell certainly seems an interesting character and is very much a thinking type of manager. Surprised that he hasn't found a new home so far....

Just keeps nagging me why he’s not been snapped up before now ???

I think a few clubs have approached him but maybe weren't right for him.

Maybe he was waiting for the big job to come up................................Morecambe F.C.

If he did get the job, he would have more back room staff to relieve the pressure and make life a little less stressful if thats at all possible being a manager

According to the Lancasrer Guardian first team coach Ged Brannon is very keen to take over from DA and has been granted an interview.

Get was a successful u23 manger at Stanley and was highly thought of at the club.

I'd have no problems if he took on the task with John Mc as his assistant.

This weekends game v Wrexham and the home game on Tuesday could go a long way in his favour if the results are positive.

Going forward we have to develop our own talents and his coaching skills with you gsters is certainly in his favour.

Interview on own website just now. We will see what happens at Wrexham.

In my opinion we should not go for the 'cheap' option,has to be an experienced manager!

Personally don't think Wrexham away is the acid test for a new manager. They literally invest millions on signings and we go with youngsters on loans. I think we are on a hiding to nothing down there.

Might be neater to keep it all in one thread.

If the bookies make someone 2/5 for a job it normally means they have accepted serious money placed on the outcome, or an attempt has been made to invest serious money from someone with inside knowledge. Unfortunately for us Grimsby have settled owners, double our fan base and are an ex Championship Club.

If it's between us and them for his services we can probably kiss goodbye to our chances of landing the Moose.

John Coleman is the bookies favourite for our manager's position.

Interesting that on Radio Lancashire tonight when asked about it didn't kill off the speculation which he could easily have done.

Coley confirmed two things, when asked about being the bookies favourite, he replied that he was behind Lee Westwood (golfer) when he applied for the Notts County job, so he is very dismissive of the bookies, and he also confirmed that there had been no contact whatsoever from anyone at MFC.

He and Jimmy Bell out of contract at the end of the season, so doubt we would be buying them out of their Accy deals, but that’s my two pennorth.

I think Holt would be happy for them to go a bit cheaper. he said they should have been sacked because of the relegation. I think the issue would be we would need to pay for both of them and then would we need to ge rid of John MC or Ged and pay one of them off as well.

Andy Holt and John Coleman could mutually agree to terminate the contract, then John is free to sign for us and Andy Holt is free employ somebody else as manager.

Coley could have killed the speculation dead by saying something like I am committed to Accrington and have no interest in managing Morecambe.
Instead he waffled about being behind Lee Westwood when he applied for the Notts Co. job.
Maybe a bit of smoke if no fire yet.
Ged says the club are moving quickly to appoint a manager so maybe some news soon.

I wouldn't be upset with Ged & John being given the rest of the season, and reassess the situation then. Ged has a good reputation for working with young players, and John knows the club and has a huge amount of experience. Let's regain momentum.

We've signed a player, albeit on a very short contract, but 'someone' made that decision, after Derek left.

I think Artell would be great, but seems like he's off to Grimsby. Not bothered by Coleman. Would be very funny and I do enjoy his football, but can't be doing with 35 man squads. Also feel like he's winding down a bit.

Be interesting to see how much influence Brannan might end up having over these next couple of games. Lacks experience but all managers need to be given a start somewhere.

My only concern is does Ged have the contacts to find these young loan players to bring in on a restricted budget? Derek has worked wonders doing that to he past couple of years unless that is down to Greg strong who we could do with keeping hold of.
