Seeing as the club is still a NL club, then he was a failure.

Where has he moved onto? Which club?

As expected but still Outstanding News.

The new era will look a lot better when game 1 of next season comes around.

Certainly a Summer of Optimism.

Hearing backroom staff/physio also all set to leave as new management comes in soon.

Feaths can and has stated he feels unfortunate to be leaving, but club needs a clean-break and Landon does right looking to start a new era with a clean-sweep of action. Feaths can point towards good points totals, but the goals return, the games that mattered to get into top 7 and the historic losses in the league & cups was more than enough to look elsewhere.

Look at York, Rochdale, Wrexham, Stockport etc of previous years, they kick-started new ownerships by going and getting proven & better than the level experience in the football department. Feaths was the final act of the Raj short-ism decisions in his ownership of the club. Nothing was set up for the medium term success.

We've been so bad for so long, hopefully this news is followed by a clear step change in manager / players / quality of football & competing at the very top of the division.

We may be about to turn into a professional outfit.

TBH what seems to be happening now is what I hoped to happen.

I think everyone at the club was given to season end with the caveat that a top to bottom review would take place and to expect changes from that point on.

Hopefully onwards and upwards.

I'd be sorry to see Danny go. He's gotten players back from some really bad injuries over his time at Pools and he gives a good honest situation interview when called upon.

Fully agree with this - he's done a cracking job, and hope he survives the cull

Looks like a root and branch cull and just maybe throwing the baby out with the bath water, time will tell.

I like Danny, seems to be doing a good job and has been said his updates were always excellent. I suppose Bromby have to be seen to be making a difference and / or maybe they've decided the whole culture around the football team needs to change and Danny may rightly or wrongly be caught up in that.
