It's Appleton :(

I will get behind him but I have very little enthusiasim for next season. Going to be scrapping around the bottom half of the table. Happy to eat my words though!
 
Not sure on it personally, risky appointment in the sense like Grayson where he needs to hit the ground running or the fans will turn.

It's done now, he is Blackpool manager and I'll get behind him. Hopefully a decent summer of recruitment will make people more positive.
 
You can't argue with the quote from SS who is much better placed, with his entire team of paid professionals, than any of us like-to-think-we-know-it-alls!

“I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Michael back to Blackpool. I am very much looking forward to seeing what he can achieve during his second stint with us. Whilst success cannot be guaranteed, Ben, Brett, John and I are convinced that, after a thorough recruitment process, he’s the right man for us at this point in our journey.

“All of the prospective head coaches were strong candidates and we spent several hours with each to get to know them better. After debating their individual pros and cons, we were unanimous in our decision to choose Michael Appleton.”
 
Same as many on here not what I was expecting but we need to back him and the team.
Sadler obviously thinks he was the best candidate for the job.
 
Good luck to him. Competent and tactically savvy plus he has a good reputation with loan signings so will be trusted by the big boys. Best of luck! You could say he’s not an exciting appointment but I don’t for one minute think we’ll go down now when I would have had a few doubts if it had been Rosenior.
 
At least it’s sorted now and the traitor critchley can be forgotten forever and that horrible other fella can go back and rot with Rooney at derby👍🏻
 
The biggest problem with this is people are already against him, and most of those people won’t change their mind on that.

Every time we have a bad result it will be the same people popping up overreacting and getting on his back.

Yes, he’s got to win a lot of people over, including me, but I’ll at least start neutral.

People will be wanting him to fail so they can prove themselves right, as is what happened with Grayson and Critchley.

We’re starting from scratch.
 
So we ended up with the cheap option.

He’s out of contract so no compo to pay out and it looks like he was our second or third choice?

😭
 
Sadlers comments
I can not guarantee success , but he is the man for pool at this moment , so Simon Sadler is in trouble financially for me
he wants pool to go forward but something has happened to stop this , this season is finishing 4th from bottom , avoid relegation at all costs or do the best you can , maybe ne t season pool push forward , i reckon liam was coming , but pool can’t afford comp 300.000 rumours and give Liam the budget we need
it will be loans , loans and frees , but sell at least 4 players to balance the books maybe , Neil knew something was up , maybe 🤷
