    After watching that dross yesterday are we certain that Jones is really interested in coaching\managing us. 
    It seems odd to me that any one would want to.
    This is the chance for him to rebuild after Stoke and Southampton. He knows the club, I presume he's been told what the 'owners' plans/project is and he has the chance to prove a point.  If he can do for us what he did for Luton then it’s win/win. So yes I do think he's more than interested to be that person that digs us out of a huge hole!
    He knows the club. Despite it completely changing since he was last here. 

    Edit: beaten to it by @“Henry Irving"

    I understand what you're saying but some people were asking for CP or LB to come back and the club has completely changed since they were last here as well! 
  • This whole recruitment process is like an episode of Dad's Army...🙄
  • Listening to NTT20 podcast last week when talking about us they said that there isn’t a team in the country more primed for a new manager bounce than us. They seem to believe that with the right manager this team can be a good side. 
    I think the general outside perspective is that we're massively underachieving with the players we have available to us.
    If they had actually watched us in recent games they might have a different view!
  • EXCLUSIVE - been in dialogue today with KING 👑 RICH 
    …also…
  • It certainly will not be Warnock, he has gone to Aberdeen, until end of season

    Have the LMA ratified HIS contract today then 😃.

  • Sorry, but I don't buy this LMA thing. They are just a "Trade Union" for managers. I doubt they get much say in agreeing a contract. Yes, they may give advice to their "members" as to the content of it & whether any special clauses should be added or omitted, but in the final analysis if Jones is happy with what we are offering he just needs to sign it.

    Seems like there must be some unusual / contentious clauses in it for the LMA to be "making alterations" to it. Probably is a relegation clause or a "freedom to move if a better offer comes along" option being inserted. For his benefit I would say, not ours. 
  • Probably slipped a , I’m off if we get relegated clause in.
  • My hope is the return of Pan and Chuks will bring the quality we need to stay up. We certainly have enough to stay up, Jonesy just needs to get a tune out of them.

    I await all three of their collective appearances with anticipation

    imagine watching yesterdays match and thinking “yeah, I’ll have some of that”. Must like a challenge 
    and/or a pound note. 

    Keep us up and get us properly competing in the top 6 from August to May 25 and he'll have earned every penny.

    Reckon a manager would sooner take over an underperformed side than an over-performing one. 
    Can you imagine taking over after Sir Alex etc. Taking over from Appleton (can't count Flemming) must have little to no pressure.

    My feelings also. Wouldn’t you expect that someone like Jones would have his own lawyers and not rely on the LMA lawyers (?) who are not directly under his instructions ? Just seems odd to me. Never heard it being an issue before. Perhaps I’ve never noticed but quite what authority or control the LMA have I’m not sure.

    Three appearances is all we might need 🤣

    Perhaps if he does well and keeps us up then he wants to be released to apply for the Liverpool job in the summer 🤣

    A reminder:

    Win
    verb
    UK  
    Present participle winning | past tense and past participle won

    To achieve first position and/or get a prize in a competition, election, fight etc.

    Synonyms: gain, get, receive, land [informal] 

    Antonymlose, but we all remember that one. 
  • Could the LMA thing be because NJ doesn’t have an agent (I have no idea if he has one or not) and they provide free support to their members, like the PFA?
  • Announcement being teased on Twitter so it’s all done

    Being trailed on twitter 
  • Nathan Jones, you've been gone too long

    I take it we're all singing that next home game then?
