Rejected a contract offer and left Braintree. What do people think about having him in if Wayne does go? Pretty decent record at a local club with a small budget, fits the bill.

No thanks. Clearly all the above posters are West Ham, more hoof than Still.

Interesting he has left... Winder if there is a deal for him in place somewhere already.

Can't comment too much as I had low expectations of Wayne when he joined around the 'hoof' football and caring on from John's reign

Yeah lets stick with the bloke who ran Concord rangers and Grays athletic for about a week and who supports grimsby :lol:

Seriously though......Devonshire has passion and contacts and a credible record so far,why not ?

People don't moan about the style of football when the teams doing well. People rarely complainted about Still when we were climbing the leagues, it was only when we were in a constant relegation battle. I wouldn't mind Devonshire if Wayne does go.

Interesting there is any debate about whether or not we keep Wayne in amongst this thread... If he wants to stay he stays next season, that is surely a given

Never know, the hammers might let us use their training facilities next winter with him in charge. But probably not.

Im sure for that reason alone Devo would be worth a punt.
