Yep, it's speculation.  Just as Dean apparently can't get a tune out of most of them because they're not good enough, the same must also be true of Terry and the defenders.

Now it’s Bristol City he’s expressed an interest in according to some of this morning chip wrappers.

How does anyone actually know what he does well enough to make a defined judgement on him? For all we know he could have certain views that don’t align entirely with Dean Smith and in the end it’s the manager who makes the final call. We are putting entirely too much stock on him because of his name. I don’t get some of the vitriol towards him as a member of Aston Villa. He was superb as a player for us. He’s now a coach. He has never said one bad word about us. Always speaking highly of the club and fans even as a Chelsea player.

Was he really a superb player for us, TV?

yes he was i saw all of his home appearances for us and even at 37 his performances were largely outstanding. He also brought leadership to the team .

I saw them, too. Albeit on a dodgy stream. I don't think he was superb. But fair enough.

At least we had someone who would let the ref know we have had enough of his poor decisions.

I don't know if he is any good as a coach but I can't recall a time that a coach at the club has been blamed more for the on pitch performances.Dean has 2 assistants Terry and O'Kelly the latter doesn't seem to attract any criticism of his coaching ability  where as there is a perception from some if Terry left we would improve...

I think it's less about his coaching than his personality.

Fair point but I think it's the incongruity of Terry being a top level defender for years as a player, yet us having a league one quality defence

Do we give im credit now for the defence improving ? Who is to blame for the inept attack

There is blame to go round to everyone it just seems to me as Terry is well known he takes alot of the criticism even to the point that Smith is blameless

I never imagined when Terry came on board we'd end up with the (2nd)* worst defence in the league. It's shocking stat - 65 goals conceded.
