Why are people saying "Short Term Appointment"? we are only a handful of games into a new season, why do we need some kind of stop gap....doesn't make sense to me
There's always a reason not to go for someone without the experience. When Johnson went, we wanted someone who knew how to get promotion. If Mowbray takes us to 12th this season and then leaves, no-one will be arguing for the unproven manager, they'll be wanting Dyche et al who have "taken teams out of this league before". I don't mind if it's Mowbray. But I also think we've got a strong set of ideals and a philosophy. If Speakman wants to take his shot on an unknown based on ideals then I'm open to that too.
Smacks of bookies manipulating a dead market. Saying that would be a very bold appointment. If a bit risky.
It's going to be Doddsy for the Rotherham game isn't it. Looks like Canning has ****ed off to Stoke as well.
You’d think the incoming manager might have had to sign off on diamond going on loan, even if as a courtesy. As it could have waited a few days. Which would suggest it is done.
I'm not sure on that. I think it's just part and parcel of the DoF set up. The club operates in the same way regardless of head coach. If we don't appoint anyone this week we will still be active in the transfer market upto the window shutting on Thursday.
I don’t think he’s disputing that, I think he’s speculating a deal for a new manager maybe done as there’s the possibility they’d have to sign off on this, although I don’t think that’s the case, we were bringing players in on deadline day in January when we sacked Johnson a day earlier
If it is Mowbray NOW, to stabilise the club, then by default it must be Dyche as the next manager/coach/dishwasher/kitman /whatever
the manning thing will all be down to that fake bbc journo posting that story earlier and it leading to loads of people lumping onto him
