Yeah I heard that too TheRam. Guaranteed by Spags.

 

[Eels Dude]

I'm not going to take it as a given, but hope it's true.

 

[boxhead]

Wooo!
Best news all year! So far at least....

 

[Gronk]

Kearney must have knocked us back. ;-)

 

[belmoreeel]

they also interviewed mateo after all this Quade talk channel 10 was saying why not offer the money to feleti instead he basically said he was offered a contract but he knocked it back.

 

[spartan2153]

sorry but our board is a joke. get him a decent halfback then judge him. we overachieved last year & we are finally thanks to ando stopped paying players for potential.

he has brought the players back down to earth.

i hope we win next year because he bleeds blue & gold & it would be fitting for him to lead us to victory

I hope for Ando's sake the words "full support of the board" weren't used.

me too...

Not those exact words, but more along the lines of the board has no intention of replacing him with Stephen Kearney (didn't say he wouldn't be replaced by another coach however )

 

[eel01s]

Great news. I hope Ando picks up some players he wants for next year, so he can be judged on his merits at the end of his contract.

 

[boxhead]

Roy Spagnolo expressly said Daniel Anderson will see out his contract, regardless of this year's outcome.
So no he will not be replaced.

 

[Y2Eel]

So he will only be the eels coach for 1 more season?
Or are they saying they will evaluate his role halfway through the year and see if they re sign him? Thats what they should have said in the first place.............

 

[ParraAds]

I'll believe it when I see him in the coaches box round 1 next season.

 

[eels81236]

well done for putting the issue to bed, one way or the other.

 

[Suitman]

well done for putting the issue to bed, one way or the other.

That's true, but they could have done it earlier which would have put a stop to all the stupid talk in the Telegraph this week.

Suity

 

[attamarrap]

excellent news

 

[Djay]

I reckon his been lucky to get to see out his contract which is unfair. I can't seem him being resigned unless we win it next year unfortunately.

Hopefully we can pick up some good signings for next year and we should be good.
