Names being banded around scare the **** out of me, Nathan Jones, please god no, some guy from Lincoln who I have never heard of and managed a mid league position this year and we all have to have one star, mr Wayne Rooney. Sort of hoping none are true.
My source at the Club tells me that Russell Martin didn’t want to go - but his hand was forced when the Yanks cancelled his trip to the States. They were apparently happy to run down his contract. Seems that they fancy cashing in on the compensation for his contract.
We have now been linked to Luke Williams, notts county manager as well as their striker all rumour. apparently the Nathan Jones link please god no is down to the guy Watson we tried to get as head of football apparently if he comes he wants Jones. Again all rumours
That wouldn’t surprise me, so who actually runs our club or has the final say in dealings, there are so many names banded about no idea if it is still the originals or do the new guys have a say
The new Chairman was ‘on the front foot’ re social media speculation re Winter and Marsh. Yet there is complete radio silence with respect to Russell Martin and the links to Southampton
Apparently Luton’s Paul Watson has agreed to join us as director of football operations after the play off final from Luton. The worry is he apparently wants Nathan Jones as manager as part of his joining us. I for one do not want Jones apart from his love of those up the road I actually don’t think he is a very good manager. One partial success at Luton failed in everything else he has done
I can’t see how it ends any other way, but the club seem really up for this Paul Watson and one of his conditions is the appointment of Nathan Jones. For me it should be a no to both then. He doesn’t even fit the way we do things.
I bet the yanks are scouring the market for a club no.2 or bargain basement deal then keeping thier fingers crossed it'll work out and make them money ?
Ex Rochdale manager and in academy now at Man City Brian Barry Murphy linked would hit everything you said.
