There was no coming back from the Fotheringham affair for Bromby as HOF, but I had a faint hope he might revert back to a role on the youth development side - the likes of Jackson, Headley, Camara, Diarra etc establishing themselves in the first team squad this season is, for me, very much part of his legacy with the structures he helped implement over the mid to long term starting to bear fruit. That said, whether or not he was even offered the opportunity, I can understand why a clean break might be preferable for all parties.

Ian Bennett is ex Warnock man at Middlesborough, so it’s a possibility.
Shame about Clem he has always seemed wholly committed to Town.

Three months or so ago I saw Doncaster Rovers play at Sutton. Ian Bennett is the goalkeeper coach at Donny and was on their bench that day. He was fairly active, passing on instructions to their goalie. He looks just the same as he did at Town, just a little greyer. Always rated him as a player. The modern game. What did the keeper need telling? ‘Save it!’ ‘Dive!’ They’ll build a second dug out behind the goals next. |

Not all meets the eye with clements. as I have said previously he did the dirty on nick colgan to get the job in the first place. Him and bromby are as thick as thieves. I expect clements to rock up at Norwich in the future. He has plenty of his pals down there No doubt I will get pelters for it but it's the truth. I think it's a great move by the club to clear the decks I've heard very similar things about him going behind the clubs back on a few things. None of us know the full story but he's definitely not been sacked for a 'fresh start' |

I agree tbh,certainly first team setup wise.it gets rid of any element of loyalty to previous members of staff and not been wholly on board with a new direction. |

Clements I've never known what to think about him as a coach. We've had 2 great keepers in Lossl and Nicholls, and 3 pretty bad ones in Grabara, Pereira and Schofield. It's hard to know if he's improves any of them or that's just how they were when they arrived. To be fair I don’t think Jesus could’ve got a tune out of Pereira 🤣 poppadom hands if ever I’ve seen one |

What’s Alan Fettis up to? He still at Boro?
Dave Watson is available I think. Was very well respected at both Norwich and Southampton.

Not really much chance that he'd take such a step down after running the footballing side ultimately at Board level. I'm sure his CV (the bits he chooses to highlight!!) will find him a good role elsewhere, meanwhile he's got plenty of assets to keep him going until such opportunity comes along. |

I think it's a great move by the club to clear the decks Il never forget seeing him at the service station on the way home from Wembley, all he wanted to do was talk about himself and how good Schofield was (think England Under 17s had won that day), admittedly seems he's well respected as a keeping coach but my god was he wrong on Schofield. It feels as though he nailed his colours to the mast with Schofield early on. No recriminations from me - keepers develop differently and Schofield obviously showed high potential at a young age - but it's going to be doubly frustrating if Carl Rushworth, who was allowed to leave for Halifax, goes on to become 'England's Number 1'! |

Not quite - I think Ross Wilson was the only one we've had that ever got a seat on the board. I agree though - agreeing to step back would certainly have signalled a lack of ambition to prospective employers in the future, no matter how much of a 'home bird' he is supposed to be. |

It's hard to know if he's improves any of them or that's just how they were when they arrived. That Grabara is an absolute prick! Since leaving he ended up at Copenhagen and was in competition with Matt Ryan (ex premier league and la liga). Anyway during the World Cup, Ryan made a pretty big mistake which cost Australia dearly and then went and kicked Ryan while he was down on social media. Pretty sure that Ryan was classy and let it slide, if it was me I would have asked about his World Cup record, because I’m not that classy 😁 |

Bromby - had to go after appointing Fotheringham over Michael Carrick.
Clements - Schofield was an abject fail. But Nicholls was a total success - so slightly mixed emotions on that one.
New era - New start - we move on.

It's hard to know if he's improves any of them or that's just how they were when they arrived. Bilokapic has been at the club for 3+ years (from age 17) so will have spent most of his formative years under Clements. He appears to be a good prospect albeit we brought in Vaclik (and Smith) during Nicholls' injury. Not seen Chapman or Bellagambi play to be able to comment on them. |

Gutted clements has gone, he seemed like a quality coach Depeneds on what you class as "quaility" . You can't really be gutted, when he brought Schofield through, what improvments did he make to him? non that i saw. Nicholls is who he is and is a great keeper regardless. Perriera enough said. Non of the young keepers underh im , have gone out on loan and actually played more than a game at league level.
Now i am not saying "clem" was bad, but the evidence to say he was "quaility" simply doesn't show.
