    Think this is really good plan from both adams and City, Did think Trueman needed the step up from what he originally had agreed with either way. do wonder if this opens the door for Sellars to come back.

    Sellars has burnt his bridge.

    I’d say it’s probably the reason he left, not coming back.

    Well done to Mark, but what happens to that made up job he got do we just pretend it didn’t exist?

    Happy with this. The main gig came to early for Trueman so working alongside a proven winner will hopefully provide us with a ready made replacement when Adams leaves, (provided this season isn’t a complete disaster)..

    If Adams is 100% on board with it then I'm happy with this appointment

    You bet your boots he will be. He will have signed off on this - make no mistake.

    I'd suggest it's the reason he left.

    Fred Karno's circus springs to mind.

    Great news, I'm very happy for Trueman, he's earned a top spot at the club and I don't see any reason other than personal preference on Adams' part to have brought someone else in.

    It's pretty clear to me we have a good coach in Trueman, and he's been rewarded for getting the job done as first team coach last season.

    I'd like to see us bring someone in as link coach now though.

    Can anyone recall the last time we went into a season without a link coach in place. Worrying times.

    Im absolutely certain that Trueman can juggle both roles.

    Interesting.

    Some would think we waited until Sellors left do this but it was in the works all along.

    Well it must have been an important piece of the puzzle if they're giving Trueman a three year deal.

    We can't just chalk it up to nepotism now, can we?

    It certainly would make him feel like his nose has been disjointed, so no he won’t be back imho.

    Thats how business works. Done it since about 1990. Smoke and mirrors whilst “holding a position”

    No chance.

    Needs filling in my opinion.

    We gave it to the former first team coach and gave him three years; it's clear that position is critical to the future of the club.
