because they are not proven yet, the next 6 league games and the playoffs may change that. But i expect that the club has been flooded with interest from some high profile managers either out of work,operating in the media or have exsisting contracts until the end of the season, then they will go into a hat with the others.

Craig said on Twitter that there was "no chance" that Drury was the favourite. Think he's just decided to throw some weight behind any possible move himself, perhaps just to raise his profile, perhaps to negotiate an improved contract at Corby. I don't know.

Ryan Semple also added "you gotta be shittin' me Craig"  :D

Just like a certain Mr Scott wouldn't put money on him going to Grimsby, 48 hrs before he upped sticks, to Grimsby.

What about Scotts brother from Brentford if we go up? We could hunt down ex Wednesday striker David Hirst and it would be like nothing happened? :)

John Still? He's at Dagenham - can't see him leaving them! Do you mean Mark Stimson? He'd be an excellent appointment, IMO.

Dont know, i was advised by someone close to the club that they had received numerous enquirees for the managers role and that the ex Barnet manager had applied and S.Thompson and A.Scott were mentioned amongst the names.

To be honest if our current pairing get us to the promised land, i think they will deserve a chance.

I live near Barnet at the moment, and he was pretty much the reason they're going to be relegated this year, he did a really bad job, and we are quite similar to Barnet so thats a no from me.

We're similar to Barnet? How? We are one of the best supported teams in our league, and they aren't... he did a fantastic job with Grays, and also at Stevenage. Only since managing in the Football League has he been unspectacular...

In terms of fanbase, with a hardcore of around 1200 ish, with the possibility to go up to around 2000 in a big match, and budgets are probably low. A manager with success with working on a low budget would be needed. With some financial backing Stimson would be a good shout, but not at the moment imo

Steve Fallon had a lot of success at Histon and I'm guessing he didn't have a big budget to work with. He would probably be a good appointment.

Don,t think Stimson could manage a team on Bostons budget , Fallon would be able to do with a big-hoof brand of football. 
 Did anyone actually hear Drury being declared the favourite for the job on BBC Lincs. ?
 Reading the article it reminded me of one of our ex managers .
 Lets avoid has-beens like Steve Thomson , with TT and BL down the road at Gainsboro surely me have learned a lesson.
 After the success under S&H lets go for the same formula again , a pair say like Canoville & Lee . Surely they,ve not been declared failures already ?
