Would have to assume that Gary O’Neil and Joe Jordan’s contracts were only to the end of the season.

Is it right that he is staying?
If so, I think that is really good news.

Where did you hear that?

There was this para from the Joe Jordan story, but reading it that could change.
The other, Gary O’Neil, is still in position at Cherries, as well as the rest of the coaching staff at present.

Looks like Gary O'Neill is stating put which is good to hear. Understand he's very well liked at the club?
The reason I was looking for confirmation.

Good news although if JW lands a managerial position elsewhere wouldn’t he try and poach him to be assistant?

Not if he’s under contract, which I hope is.

Could buy out his contract.
Assumed we wouldn't get someone with a multiple year contract to agree to replace it with a 6 month one.

I suppose Gary O'Neill was the only one to leave a good job to come to us so no surprise that he was able to negotiate a longer contract......
Good news imo as he's the only one of them that offers anything on the coaching side.......I mean Joe Jordan ffs!

Strange that he was kept on longer,I would hardly think u21 coach at Liverpool is a great job.

Think it was under 23s and coaching some of the best youngsters in the country can’t be bad.

I was wondering why we gave a contract until end of June when the season finished in May
Most football contacts run until 30th June - that's players, managers and coaching staff

I doubt he will get the job permanently. But at least there’s one thing he has shown with his comments since Wednesday.
He “gets it”.
Couple that with what he said about the players after the Wolves game.
“As a group, they’re the most honest, hard-working, together, relentless group that I’ve ever been involved with, even in my playing career. You can throw everything at them and they will never quit. And I think we have enough to be competitive at this level.
“From what I asked the boys to do this evening, they produced. They showed commitment, bravery, togetherness in a tough moment, so I’m proud of that.

Yes was refreshing to here someone talk well and positively after the wolves game
