Not sure this has been touched on in other posts. But he’s been in charge at Strasbourg for 6 months and jumping ship because a better opportunity has arisen for him. Not a good trait, and although we want him to succeed his track record suggests if he does and a bigger club comes calling he will not hesitate to do the same again.

Works both ways though doesn't it. Bournemouth were quick enough to bin him off for Iraola. |  |

And that's not something many people do in every day life? Any reason why a football manager should be different? |  | | |

I don't get the impression that les Strasbourgoises will be rioting in protest at his departure. |  | | |

No matter who we appoint, if they do well and another club from say the top 6 came knocking, they would go. |  |

Just to get this straight.
If you were in a job for 6 months, and a higher profile employer came in for you, working in the biggest market in the world, and offered you a departmental budget of £180m plus and you were already upset with the ownership in your current job, ( https://www.independent.co.uk/
You’d say ‘No’? |  |

Always a risk, but Ashton’s track record suggests there will be a compensation clause to offer some security. | | | |

Correct. But I accept the reality not much loyalty in life/football.
McKenna had opportunities to go to a ‘bigger’ club 2 years ago and he stayed. So there is still loyalty in football - just hard to find. | | | |

McKenna showed loyalty 2 years ago albeit with the help of a hefty pay rise. | | | |

Tbf Bournemouth and Wolves both sacked him |  |

If he does enough with us that he gets his loyalty tested think that's probably fine. |  |

If we are worried about a bigger opportunity coming up for him then it’s going to be a good problem for us to have.
I find that would be highly unlikely during year 1, probably time to get out of your head he will be at PR for 5 years.
We are about to be thrust into the modern football world of change, get used to it. |  |

He will only getter a better opportunity if we’re doing well. So it’ll be a good thing and then the position will be even more attractive. |  |

“Albeit” doing some heavy lifting there. About a couple million pounds worth. | |

You do understand that the only way a ‘bigger’ fish were to come in for O’Neil would be that he’s hugely successful here! | | | |

Lucky then that no-one higher up the table than us will ever be silly enough to try and appoint him | | | |

Certainly lots of stick gathering going on around here. I've seen it all before over several decades, but I think it's the first time I've seen it before the guy has even been appointed. Talk about a tough crowd! Of which I'm not a member, I might add. I prefer to give people a chance before passing any sort of judgement. | | | |

His loyalty is not the main thing that worries me about this appointment. [Post edited 21 Jun 4:53]

I can’t see him appealing to a top 6 club at present. If a top 6 team did come in for him, it means he’d have done a very good job with us - which is obviously a good thing. | | | |

For that to happen means we stay up , so don’t worry. | | | |

If we're worried about him jumping ship.... its a good thing.and he must be doing a good job. | | | |
