Great news, Is that 1 one of the announcements for the week

Good to hear that he is in it for the long-haul. Have been very impressed with what he has done with Agar's team/signings this season, and his honesty in his press conferences has been refreshing.

So when AP said Gentle was here for 3 years he was lying
again? This is getting beyond a joke,lol

Contracts mean nothing just to balance things out a little

Bugger off ya miserable sod!

Great news and a boost of the timely kind for the play offs.

Good news, quite surprised Gentle himself has agreed to an extension. Only serves to show his commitment to getting the job done.

Great news this.

Great to see that the club believes in him and that he believes in the club. I'm confident that we will win trophies during his time here. Delighted.

I thought this might happen mid way through next season but more than happy for it to come now. Still got push on from this season but he's made a promising start.

Absolute cack Mr jumponthebandwagon.com How the hell a numpty like you made mod is a beyond rational. You really are a joke.

Yeah, it should have been you.

At least i wouldnt be some be some band wagon dreamin div like most mods on here

No Seb, you wouldn't.

Pearson said at todays player of the year awards that he was not satisfied in fifth or sixth and would not rest in his efforts at the Club till we were top four and winning trophies and that he is confident that Gentle is the man to take us there. Gentle said that he was really happy in the City and with the Club and the squad he was putting together.

Good news stability of the coach is helpful when signing players and he's done a good job this year. Deserved extension.

Fantastic news. Hope he can guide us to (at least) a win in the play-offs but the improvement on the pitch this season has been obvious and we actually appear to have tactics going into games.

Next year with more of his own players and more expectation placed on him we will find out much more about PG. we need to be aiming top 4 IMO but with Wigan, Wire, Sts, Cats, Leeds et al it will be far from easy but we are capable with a better injury run.

At least it's one less topic for the rumour thread, the Chase one is bad enough without adding Gentle to it linking him with Wests and Catalan. Excellent news.

Great news, I like his style but also adding stability is key to long term success

I'll await next season and see what he can do with his own team and not Mr Agar's squad

I have been Adam's biggest critic in the past with the football, however I must admit at eating my hat when he sold City and then came back and have relished in our club since Mr Hetherington and her puppet Mr Rule went.

Club was being run at the cost of supporters loyalty and now he's running it the well I'm hoping we can seriously now be a top 4 competitive side. Things in the league are turning and we need to make our mark and make the playoffs, if not this year (being realistic) then at least next.

Totally agree - the club was being run with no ambition previously and as such the best way the owners could see to get money out of it was to screw the club for all it was worth and b0llocks to the performance on the pitch or the fans.

I'm not naiive enough to believe Pearson isn't trying to make a go of it for anything other than business but the difference is he has ambition, can see potential and realises that another 1000 pass holders = £200,000 in ticket sales alone for starters not to mention merchandising and revenue brought from on pitch success. We have gone from a suck it dry model to a speculate to accumulate one and long may it continue.

Adam will know how to get more revenue from the stadium then Mr Rule and Heatherington ever would. Seeing has Adam actually brokered the last deal with Mr Rule a few years back and this is sill in force. Adam will know that bums on seats matter. Only way we can progress is with the silverware and performance. Look at what he did at City....... Case rested, we are in good hands

IAWT

Great news i really think he is the coach to take us forward. He has done great this year and will be even better when he gets his own signings to work with.
