    Roland getting ready to sell so he taking the pitch with him .

    I would kind of admire that level of pettiness. It's the next level of "I'm leaving and taking my ball with me."

    Can't help thinking that would be much improved by a few thousand beachballs, stress balls and balloons all over it. I kind of got used to that look.....
    Pitch invasion with deckchairs....

    Stubbs is now in at Rotherham. Seems everyone can't appoint managers quicker than us.

    Blackburn Bolton Villa Oldham Leeds all still without manager ..
    Villa expect to appoint Di Matteo in a couple of days, Bolton had a final interview today and expect to make an appointment very soon (Adkins/McDermott/Cotterill), Leeds in talks with Monk, Oldham only lost Sheridan in the last few days and Blackburn, like us, are a basket case.

    Oops, we forgot Forest, they too are still managerless.

    Word on the street is we have been turned down by several managers. You can only guess the reasons.

    The club under this regime are damaged goods. A laughing stock within the wider footballing community.

    No-one will get the assurances they will want regarding control and as such we will be limited to an internal appointment, a friend of the network or someone with low stock.

    The situation is of the owners making. He can't do anything to put it right.

    2-3 weeks time we get Nobby (as an interim) and we sign a load of leftover dross.

    Upshot? Relegated again.

    10 clubs have appointed managers since we lost our last one, and just possibly our manager will have rather more on his plate before the season than some of those 10 - how many does this number have to rise to before you question the competence of the regime? It isn't although they don't have much experience in appointing managers.

    it MIGHT (only might) be a help towards finding a good manager/decent players if CARD and Co were to declare a cease fire for (say) the first 6 games (3 home, 3 away) of the new season, thus giving the new (if any) guys a hassle free start .. after that, if things are still stranded up shit creek, guerrilla warfare could recommence

    wilder did not turn us down , Cotterill amd Davies was never offered anything to turn down, as yet Adkins and Slade not been offered the role but expect one of them to be in the next few days ..Evans to soon no contact been made

    So word on the street is wrong
    ..

    So why haven't Slade and Adkins been offered anything/why are we waiting 'a few days'?

    They made have made 5 head coach appointments since they have arrived but none were proper appointments like what they are trying to do now.

    2 came straight of the network, 2 were people they knew whilst Peetees was at the bottom end of the Belguim top league, he was always going to snap up a chance of working in the English 2nd tier.

    Now they are trying to make a proper appointment, and they are struggling which is no surprise to me. Even there handing of the Wilder approach was a joke the way they told the world what was happening before any deal was agreed

    This is bad, even for you Colin. Which ever way you look at it Wilder certainly turned us down. Both clubs admitted that we were in talks with him, yet for whatever reason he ends up at Sheffield United.

    He's a Sheff Utd fan, played there for years and wanted the job. He used us to get Sheff Utd to show their hand hence it was done super quickly.

    Lived in Sheffield
    Children schooled in Sheffield
    Do not have to move family from Sheffield
    Supports Sheffield United
    Blah blah blah

    Northampton is a long way from Sheffield.

    Colin1961/Bexleyboy, what do get out of the rubbish you post?

    Northampton to Sheffield is under 2 hours drive and quite a few managers work away from home, far closer than Charlton, housing cheaper and children don't have to change school, sometimes Colin is not completely wrong
