ottery st mary Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Hopefully the Wilkins family can loan us Terry and Lamps for the odd month.
Chez Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 (edited) worked and devloped a lot of decent youngsters at Brighton and will know who to buy from League 1 thats for sure. Edited 31 July, 2009 by Chez
John B Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Hopefully the Wilkins family can loan us Terry and Lamps for the odd month. Sorry but I know nothing about him
WestSaint Posted 31 July, 2009 Author Posted 31 July, 2009 Is this the ex manager of Brighton??? Yes - unlucky apparently to lose his job to Adams
Glasgow_Saint Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 League 1 experience might be able to point AP in the direction of some good L1 talent?
Stattmeister Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/2261074.dean_wilkins_considers_his_future/ Brighton fans were miffed to lose him (apologies if the thread doesn't work/shouldn't be in the post)
ottery st mary Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Sorry but I know nothing about him I am quietly confident that Alan Pardew knows Dean Wilkins very well and that is all you and ottery need to know at this stage...NEXT a few astute signings.:smt060
Chez Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Yes - unlucky apparently to lose his job to Adams yep. Hands firmly tied by financial constraints. Played the youth team and didn't do badly.
Redondo Saint Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 good news regardless of who the guy is - AP needs help and now he can concentrate more on the squad.
Matthew Le God Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Sorry but I know nothing about him I think he is trying to imply we may get some loans from Chelsea as he is Ray Wilkins brother.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 (edited) Well respected at the Albion, according to my Seagull mates. Apparently took them to 7th, with no real funds, and was rewarded, at the end of the season, with "would you like to return to being a coach while we bring Micky Adams back?". Funnily enough, said "no". Edited 31 July, 2009 by Ivan Katalinic's 'tache
Foxstone Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Happy with that as he is a decent enough coach.. Welcome aboard Dean.
Colinjb Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 A man who knows League 1 and with experience of keeping a team in it, a good person to have. Lets hope he has a few players in mind.
Wes Tender Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Will be useful to have the Chelsea connection with brother Butch. I'm imagining him picking up the phone and getting us some of their youngsters on loan.
rallyboy Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 had a chat with him at St Marys only three/four months ago when he was down for an evening game so I know he witnessed the dutch experiment close-up, he will seen our players and how they behaved last season, and should be a good appointment. (if he can get us some Chelsea loanees nice and cheap too that would be great!)
Saint_Ash Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Seems decent. How many loanees did he get in for Brighton from Chelsea? In none then I don't see why he'll get any in for here. Would be nice though.
John B Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 I think he is trying to imply we may get some loans from Chelsea as he is Ray Wilkins brother. Yes I remember him now
Matthew Le God Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 How many loanees did he get in for Brighton from Chelsea? In none then I don't see why he'll get any in for here. Brighton probably didn't have the money to pay the loan fees of Chelsea players that Mr Liebherr may now be able to.
Chez Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 maybe we will raid Brighton, if so he's an idea of who's who: http://www.thefootballforum.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=171966
Torres Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 maybe we will raid Brighton, if so he's an idea of who's who: http://www.thefootballforum.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=171966 Virgo would be a decent signing if he'd leave Brighton again. Edit: As would Forster if he wasn't a fossil.

ottery st mary Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Two favourite seagulls in Case and Melia could do for our midfield.
beavis17 Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Hopefully the Wilkins family can loan us Terry and Lamps for the odd month. scott sinclair and fabio paim would be nice
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Saw a couple of their games when Wilkins was in charge and Glenn Murray looked a very good striker.
spank_182 Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Fair play getting in Wilkins. Seemed like he was doing well with Brighton. Would be especially useful if he can use some of his links... Bring in Virgo - plays centre back and striker - our two most desperately needed positions!! Going a bit off topic - what happened to the days of players who played both - Dion Dublin and Chris Sutton(?) I seem to remember played both? Have Saints had anyone the last few years who's filled that role?

sussexsaint Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Good another very sensible well considered and reasonable appointment by our new owners - I am more and more reassured by the way this lot do business
Toadhall Saint Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Another peice of the jigsaw and by all accounts a good one.
SaintDonkey Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 And we have the lead singer from Belle and Sebastian as goalkeeping coach. A bit of a radical departure...
hypochondriac Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Good but I was hoping for a few players today!
Saint Fan CaM Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 A man who knows League 1 and with experience of keeping a team in it, a good person to have. Lets hope he has a few players in mind. Err, I do hope he knows enough about L1 to get us OUT of it, not keep us in it!!!
ponto1963 Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 And goalie coach too. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4522985.Pardew_appoints_backroom_staff/
SFC Forever Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Err, I do hope he knows enough about L1 to get us OUT of it, not keep us in it!!! Took the words from my mouth.
thegaffer Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 And goalie coach too. http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/saints/news/4522985.Pardew_appoints_backroom_staff/ What's happened to Keith Granger?
Colinjb Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 Err, I do hope he knows enough about L1 to get us OUT of it, not keep us in it!!! Thats what Pardew is for smartarse.
Give it to Ron Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 What's happened to Keith Granger? Back working in the docks with my mate.
Leslie Charteris Posted 31 July, 2009 Posted 31 July, 2009 "Don't flurry; patience gains the day" seems to be the Pardew way. Now we'll just have to wait for the astute, good value player signings.
