If Nico's contacts mean we've got a better chance of bringing Gowling to us, then I'll be celebrating. While I acknowledge that many older Managers may have more people they can ring up and ask for an opinion, sharing a dressing room with, and playing alongside someone gives you a better and more thorough insight into a player than any older Manager whose playing days are long finished could possibly have.
Hopefully we'll weigh up the advantages alongside some disadvantages, as Kev having played with or against many of the players in this division is a real plus point, whereas only highlighting a negative aspect doesn't always give a true reflection.
