FootballChat Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 The same Tobias Chapman that played in goal for Dobwalls last season? Would Simon Minett put his hat in the ring?

FeedtheYak Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Also heard a rumour about Minnett, however St Dennis positioning last season, that would surely mean that Chapman be a front runner (not sure experience he has). Possibly one of the two assistant managers to Gilbert at Liskeard would be interested or as stated the old Liskeard managers who done well last season.

Anyone that gives it go will always be compared to Darren Gilbert but best of luck to anyone who steps into the hotseat, big club with a lot of history to its name.

AmberArmy Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 I guess Bodmin, like many clubs at their level, need to consider their long term end goal. They have a new chairman and fresh blood involved, so plenty going on behind the scenes. But what’s the long term plan? Dane was supposedly a long term project, with a good reputation for development. But I don’t think that really ever got off the ground. Local youngsters were drafted in at the end of the season, partly I’m sure to get the local townsfolk on board, just as much as for their playing abilities. But they've all but gone now, chasing more minutes rather than time on the bench. Clubs at this level really need to chose whether they continue to recruit someone just for their book of numbers, or have a radical shift in the model they operate for the long term.

I thought he spoke a lot of sense, and if I was the chair of a step 6 club in the area looking for a manager, I'd fancy a longer chat with him.

sportsman10 Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 I guess that’s the question. what is the plan for Bodmin are they really invested in wanting to go up to the western league ? Never seem to be in the past. the current team is miles off being good enough and sure a few will depart anyway . they certainly need to look at a different set up pointless going back over the same faces , and same Plymouth Sunday league standard player coming in As mentioned kev McCann would be a great shout with a young team but it would be a completely different task but worth the risk.

Luke Gibbons Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 The side Kev had together at Saltash Borough would've been more competitive than the Bodmin sides of the past 2 seasons and I sure he could've pulled in a few extra with expenses covered and a higher standard. Players like Bunning and Preece are now with Saltash United so it shows the quality he's had in the past. Ian Pethick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornish leg end Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 But surely if they poach a manager from a club doing well like saltash b and he then brings all the players he wants with him it then putting the club he leaves at risk of folding? A side that’s just won the league twice. Wouldn’t it be better for him to stay out and push the club to get promotion this year? Bodmin have been a mess for a couple seasons now. Maybe as a club they need to work on the second team and closing the gap to the first team league wise and be run as a club rather than two separate sides then. maybe Bodmins best option is to drop a league and be at there level build again and go forward.

teflon123 Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 Would Danny Lewis not be a good contender?? Knows the local football scene at that level very well and could attract quality. Hearing the figures quoted that Bodmin are paying on current players is ludicrous, most of them must have thought Xmas had come early, Danny could have a massive clear out and quickly rebuild overnight with the money available.

Dane Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 You have to remember it’s a completely new team. There will be some comings and going still while people find their feet and they are still going through a period of bedding in and gelling together. A return of 7 points is a ok start and certainly isn’t a disaster I'm sure things will settle down and they will have a much improved season. Good win last night with first clean sheet of the season.

Janner82 Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 Neil and Shaun should be given the chance if they want it. Bodmin looked like a progressive side last season and we're at the start of a good re-build, however they seemed to release most of there squad especially the youngsters (it may have been the players choice i dont know) and started again. In my opinion they should have added 4 or 5 quality players to last years team and build it slowly. If someone new comes in now it would almost be like pressing the reset button again. Teams need time to gel, there is some quality in this Bodmin team and in a minute it will all click together. Luke Gibbons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsman10 Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 What happened with the manager situation here ? I thought Shaun had taking on the role.
