    Much like his signings, tactics, lineups and man management then.

    To be fair in the grand scheme of things we are a small club.

    Well if it's his former club then the east stand has a bigger capacity than their entire stadium.

    If it's the club he was at before that then the WEST stand has a bigger capacity than their entire stadium.

    Probably should have said when compared to most other championship teams.

    Nothing wrong with ambition but he's yet to achieve anything that makes me think a bigger club would snap him up. He could have used family as a euphemism for small I suppose!

    Some people get upset about strange stuff. He’s said nothing that isn’t true or we couldn’t work out.

    Shocking article and doesn't deserve comment. Got clickbait written all over this considering it even tells you to not be happy with what he's said.

    Zero context to the question. We are a small club in this division anyway in terms of budget, finances, and the fact we're not even one season out of being in League One.

    absolutely agree RH. If the man has ambition then its fine by me, it says to me that he will always try to his very best, and that's a good thing in my book.

    That article is total dogSchmidt; that said, was anyone under the impression that we were actually MASSIVE?

    He said we are a small club which is correct we are. We sell our best players, don't improve our ground and yoyo between leagues.

    He said he wants to work at the highest level. What's wrong with him being ambitious?

    Nothing he said is wrong.

    And his only other (sort of) senior management team, SV Kuchl (his hometown club) you could get most of the home crowd into the West Stand Bogs.

    Interestingly he's only had 44 games as a real manager, 21 with Wolfsberger, 23 with us, but credit to him for having ambition.

    I also didn't know that before he became a full time coach for the Salzberg under 15's in 2014 he was an insurance salesman for 8 years and before that a software trainer.

    So at least he understands spreadsheets :)
