    Congratulations to Andy. He has certainly got good experience of similar work. Just surprised this hasn't happened before now to be honest

    I for one will miss his enthusiastic radio commentary

    What do you base Jamie Lawrence on. Andy Kiwomya looks to be far more qualified and with recent success too

    He’s mentioned before during commentary he did similar roles to this elsewhere. Might have been at Leeds and Huddersfield? Can anyone remember?

    Good luck to him. I’m probably in the minority, but I’ll miss his comms, loved his passion.

    Fordy I think he will instil in them that they can do ....if they work and show commitment. We need some new energy from some were they are so flat... could he still play. joke...... could he?

    The same thing that happened to our revamped approach to recruitment and promotion charge.

    One thing for sure, and it's a good thing - he'll turn all the oppo managers into nervous wrecks by screaming "Gooaaaaaaalllllll" every time we miss.

    Have confidence in AK bringing fresh ideas to the Club.Just can't understand why DA couldn't address the same problems.

    Yes, it was a case of one in, one out and then little more than a rearrangement of the deck chairs on the Titanic at the time.

    There was a bit of a fanfare in June and then ..... nothing. And our performances since then have reflected that.

    It's interesting to compare what was said about the expected improvements in on-field performances in the article with how things have worked out. It's hardly a glowing testament.

    Some peeps slag Andy for his summarising, but beyond the umms and ahs and odd *@?$ up, he had a good eye for the games. But let's pin one thing down - being constantly 'articulate' on live radio, minute to minute, is a tough ask. Being articulate and knowing how to relate and talk to players on a training pitch as a perfornance coach is a whole different job. Andy's done a damned good fist of that at Udders, Man City, Leeds and Forest - not a shabby CV at all. I wish him well - he's a good professional and a good man.
