    Have the club even announced who is in charge for tomorrow's game yet? Other day Taylor said he didn't know if he would be in charge for Saturdays game and I've not seen any announcements that says who is in charge tomorrow. It seems a shambles to be honest.

    When a manager starts making excuses like he did you know he knows....I noticed first the odd 2 up front a few weeks ago then these excuses, made me think he has been shaken and is going against his MO. You only fo that in last chance saloon. I asked a few times on here if the ITK knew but no answer. However my instincts on the ol grey matter right again

    Not so. Unless they put on a substantial bet. to come in at 14/1 or 16/1 from no where is a substanyial bet

    I think it was because they thought it was gonna be poyet, when he knocked us back it took them by surprise. What we’re seeing now is the employer doing the right thing and taking their time and making sure that they get the right appointment

    Very true. I guess it’s how you compare the French top division to the English second/third division. He’s managed in a too European division and seems to still be at the beginning of his career so on an upward trajectory. Compared to Johnson who has never risen out of the second division, same with Cowley and Cook. It’s difficult. I think we are a lot harsher on English league managers as well because we are more familiar with them. Perhaps Jocelyn would be a failure, or a success. I just think people would be less critical of him immediately because he is more unknown, and mysterious.

    Local journos are so out of the loop these days. They use this place, RTG and twitter for 90% of their information

    More likely he's been invited to a press conference/call of some sort.

    there's a chance they've been tipped off news is coming by the club. hence not revealing what it is (he probably doesn't know).

    Perhaps even an invite to a press conference over zoom or whatever

    Aye. Once he knows something it's usually minutes away from being public knowledge

    His second spell at Guingamp doesn't seem to have gone particularly well. But, yes, he might get more time because he's less well known. I certainly hope so. He's the sort of appointment to get excited about to my way of thinking.
