    No specifics no. But everything out there now makes sense in terms of the replacement mate.

    Aye. Was planning an early night. Now the wine is open and the wife knows there is no conversation happening for the next 2 hours

    well well well... cheers for your time TM.

    enjoyed the time with him at the helm, worked well with the young lads and gained plenty of supporters for his management, was not the choice for most of us but was the ideal man at the time so wish him all the best.

    just to add, i am actually happy this has happened now...i would have liked to see him turn it round but then if it turned to complete sh1t it could have turned the fans view of him, this way he keeps his head high and (i guess) a warm welcome from us all if he comes to the SoL.

    Best football I've ever seen us play absolutely breathtaking at times last season. However I trust the recruitment as farvioli was the target and look how well he is doing.

    I think this just about sums up my thoughts. I'm a big fan of Tony but it's a results driven business, get the new man in early to assess the squad before the January window.

    Ha. Not for me. Time to hit the hay.

    However, for those who are fuming with this call just remember, maybe if the model had some flex Mowbray may still be here.

    It's really the model or you're out. Speak out or don't buy in, you're out. Tough job for someone to achieve relentless progress with such a young team.

    But that's the job and there will be plenty of head coaches who want it. Probably European.

    Just seen this, I'm surprised I didn't think things were so bad. Not been great on the pitch recently but he was trying to work it out and every club has rough patches.

    Oh well, what will be will be. I'll always have time for the bloke and he had us playing amazing football last season.

    A “journo” put something online yesterday about us looking for a new manager and OGS was on the shortlist.

    They won't have sacked him without someone lined up

    Fully agree with this. Tough ask. Confidence appears over time with experience unless you’re elite.
