Everyone's saying they want someone with Championship experience, but who would that actually be?

Usually no one wants their club to appoint the guys who've done it at several jobs over the years, your Hughtons and Bruces and so on. So what do we actually want?

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

No and no.
A week ago Acun was in hospital in Turkey. He could have got Shota to go to him, but that wouldn't have been the decent thing to do, and maybe last week he was still coming to his final conclusions.
What exactly is 'bloody ridiculous' about the way it's been done? The timing seems odd only as there's a game tonight, but not doing it face to face or 'using' him just for tonight would have been the wrong, dishonest, things to do.

I wanted Paul Warne ex Rotherham. He went to Derby last week. Great appointment for them.

Acun is considering putting together a committee of not606ers as they can pick teams, choose tactics and run the club better than anyone else. In their spare time the can sort out the economy, bring about world peace and find cures for the common cold and cancer.

Surely that would just need you ?

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).

They had a meeting after the Swansea game and Shota was fully expecting to get sacked then

On the day of the game after doing the media yesterday? I think it is unlikely he woke up and thought '**** it, Beverley is ****, wish I never moved here'.

But we will soon find out I am sure!

He may well have been wanting to resign for a while.
 
Can’t say I understand the cry for a manager with Championship experience Guardiola had no experience in the Premier League likewise with Klopp and for that matter Ferguson. Did not harm any of them. The appointment of any manager is a risk but I am all for a forward thinking appointment of an up and coming young manager that is on a forward trajectory not someone that has fallen off the the merry go round. Potter comes to mind when he was appointed at Swansea. Not sure of his record there but can’t have been bad considering he went to Brighton from there. Yes he had Football League experience as a player but no Championship experience
