Good luck Wade another Burnley legend at the helm

He’s been favourite since Duff left - good luck to him

That’s fantastic news for Wade and Cheltenham too. I hope they do well

Hope he does well. Good to see ex players cutting their teeth in management.

Fantastic- good luck Wade!

Huge favourite of mine, as a player, was Wade.
Good luck in management!

The Claret's production line continues unabated.

I hope and think that he will do well.

Good luck Wade.

That was out of the blue for me, but really pleased for Wade, always one of my favourite players as well.

I hope he enjoys as much success as Duff did.

Model professional. Let’s hope he develops into a successful manager to boot.

A lovely bloke on the occasions I met him, a really articulate, down to Earth, chatty and approachable man. I think he will do well.

Did not see that coming.
Wade was super for Burnley as a player and hope he has a long and successful career as a Manager .
One of my fao players of the recent years.

All the very best to Wade. Really thought he’d have been picked up before now, He seemed to do quite a decent job babysitting Bristol City as interim manager. I think Wade has all the attributes to make a good manager, so I wish him the extra good fortune needed

A surprise to me this news, Wade will always be a Clarets legend for his wonder strike at Wembley.

Wish him well at Cheltenham, but Duff will be a hard act to follow.

I’m just glad I got my chance to finally thank him for THAT goal at the supporters clubs end of season awards a couple of years ago. Top man.

I'm pleasantly surprised. I thought Wade might go with MD to Burnsley.

Are there any Clarets who don't wish Wade good luck?

My very best wishes to our Wade.

Funny how often these ironies occur.

One of Cotterill's inspired signings (as was Duff)

Wonder if Duff also got Burnley and Barnsley mixed up and thought he was getting the Burnley job.

That's great news. Obviously one of my all-time favourite players. Met him on a number of occasions too and he's a really nice, normal guy as well. Absolutely no ego to him whatsoever which is more than you can say for some footballers!

I hope he does well.

Good Luck Wade

Good luck Wade. A nice guy and a great player both for the cherries and us

Great player and who will ever forget THAT goal.
Good luck Wade.

Good luck Wade. A very nice Claret!

I remember away to Birmingham, he came to us at the end, not the Brummies!

Best of luck to a Clarets legend

Can still vividly remember his Wembley curler from where I was sat on that magical day

Long interview with Wade given to the local paper. We know he's an intelligent lad and that comes across with everything he says.

Talks about his pre-professional days when he was studying in London and travelling down to Bashley (New Forest) or somewhere else in Hants/Dorset every weekend.

Well worth reading IMHO.

I have a friend who supports Cheltenham and he sent me the link. Great respect for him as he's a life-long Robins' fan and has thus spent most of his Saturdays watching non-league down the years.

A harsh welcome to management for Wade, Cheltenham 2-0 up at HT yesterday, yet they went on to lose 3-2 against Peterborough.
