I'm sorry! Must be all that LSD in the sixties. Flashbacks and nightmares are a constant worry. "W***** Wards red & white army". Aaah that's better, returning to me old self!

[BlueGate Alan]

[I am Spartacus]

[BlueGate Alan]

CK was strugling for idears and had no plan B, in the Ryman Prem, hell he nearly got us relagated, an it was a far weaker division then it is now, or will be next season!

And he had achieved similar success at Dover prior to margate so, track record- fantastic, ability - unquestioned - could he do it again - why not, do the fans want him - probably, would he be willing to return - doubtful.

What ever people think about CK he was a proper manager. Knew how to organise teams and would be welcomed back by nearly everybody. Yes it went wrong for him in the last couple of seasons but who really could have managed the club at the time.

[I am Spartacus]

I would not welcome back CK. A total regrssive step in my opinion.

 

Never go back from where you have come.

 

I would not mind Seager of Whitstable though.

[Guernsey Tom]

So you think a Kent League manager is the way ahead for Margate then ????

[Hornet]

We're in the perfect league for Kinnear. His expertese at this level worked for us and Dover. And going back does work as I gave the example earlier- "Elton Johns' Taylor made army".

Nit picking I know Tom but Whistable are Ryman South 1.

[Guernsey Tom]

Point taken but they were Kent League for many many seasons prior to now.

Tend to agree with that; perhaps altering could have managed to would have managed might be appropriate.

 

Mind you, perhaps he would not want back anyway.

 

As regards regressive step, try telling that to Newcastle United.

 

It is surely about the right man for the job.

[Cookie]

Not CK for me Gary.Seems everybody wouldn't want him back then. I think everybody including those not wanting him back are appreciative of his efforts on our behalf in the past though.

CK had come to his sell-by date i.m.o. & it wouldn't be a positive for him to come back as manager.

Its time now to move up a gear,if possible.

[Rob_Butler]

Ward has had two stints with Ramsgate, look at us. Don't think MM would like Seager, his Whitsable shipped a lot of goals even while winning the Kent League.

[JohnKirby]

IF not John Kirby, then CK with John Kirby as assistant.

[BlueGate Alan]

Dream on John

[Drummer]

To be honest Cookie, I'm open about it. I believe that it is about the right man for the job, given all the circumstances.

 

I do believe, however, that we should not be tied by the "regressive" attitude - as I say right man for the job (whoever it might be).
