WIll give it a bit before I comment fully, but do think it deserves a proper read.

Two positive points sticking out - focused on developing youth at Wigan and also got them focusing on possession.

What mitigation for his Rotherham record? Even with a bad team, you should win more than 2 from 24!

Dunno if it's been mentioned, but JJ and Richardson played together at Accrington. So there's the link.

yeah, I was very impressed. strong on man-management - I genuinely respect the bit about going off to do a degree in social work, good vision, seems to relish a challenge. OK, this is an article written by him, but its got enough meat. Glad I found that. Good read.

Couhig on the Hard Truth podcast says the new manager has already been chosen, so guess Richardson it is.

Richardson seems to be a very Wycombey thing to do. So, it makes perfect sense I suppose.

I imagine that he will have to hit the ground running, otherwise he won’t have the latitude given to Noel due to Noel’s history with the club. Then I suppose it will be Redwood that start taking hostile fire. I am still surprised at the timing of Noel’s sacking. I think everyone would agree that performances on the pitch were improving.
