I would have thought Liam Rosenier would be putting in an application as soon as the vacancy was announced. Odds are in favour of it going to someone Acun knows, so a Turk, unless someone has Acuns ear and steers him towards the sensible choice which would be a manager that knows the Championship, has contacts here, and I mean contacts earnt over a lot of years, and a proven track record. They will not be short of applicants that's for sure, especially as Deano didn't get picked for the jungle.
Ha ha, I just realised I read earlier on that the Wilder thing was rubbish. Sorry, I remembered seeing the orignal post but forgot the guy had replied later on saying it was rubbish. On Parker and Dyche I guess we will never know but I remember thinking Steve Bruce would never be interested in us when his name first got linked to us. I just think for all his good work with the Club Acun has today shown a recklessness that would put off managers of a certain level who may have seen some potential in us prior to this.

I’ve heard they’ve all been providing analysis of the team on a regular basis first signing in January is paddy kenny ITK
Not the best of timing but who cares? Wrong end of the table but only 4 points off the the top 6. All to play for, we start again. Let's hope we see a different performance tonight.
Disagree with the talk of weird timing. On the face of it, to my mind, Acun has done things absolutely the right way .... meaning waited until he could do it face to face in person. He quite possibly would have wanted to do it earlier, say start of this week, but he's been in hospital, has other commitments, etc. We hear too much of players & managers being sacked by text message, over the phone, 2nd hand or whatever. Fair play to Acun for doing the right thing and also for not delaying until after tonight's match just to 'use' Shota. Daws is more than capable of handling things tonight (not saying it will necessarily go right on the pitch for him, just like it may well have not done for Shota either, but here's hoping).
If we win tonight would Dawson not get somewhat of a chance? Probably a naive move to be fair, and who knows if he'd want it. Tonight's game feels like the season opener again.
So he couldn’t get Shota to go to him then a week or so ago? bloody ridiculous way to do it The Allams did it this way and you’d be screaming from the rooftops
