Fall from grace....

Glad we didn't get him. Seemed one of the best choices at the time but looking back would he of been tactically better than Slade / Adams etc etc

Don't care. We got Gus.

Good job for him , better a team in the top 4 than one at the bottom

I this the same Jim Gannon who didn't want to move because it would uproot his family ?

Wont have to move his family if they still live near Stockport to do the job at Port Vale.

Yes... does he need to move to go to Port Vale?
He is probably a better manager than Slade but who knows how things would've worked out if he came here... he's not a better manager than Gus that's for sure.

 

[house your seagull]

he didn't come to us because dick wouldn't give him enough money, nothing to do with family.

By a factor of about 100, yes he would have been.

I don't think anyone can really question Gannon's credentials. He does however, seem to be a bit FLAKEY.

Interesting one to watch. I wanted him at the time, how I am so glad now we didnt get him but good luck to him.......and his family.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Absolutely gutted when we didn't get him. As said above, couldn't be happier now.
