Oh well, maybe the higher ups can pull something out of the bag in the next few days, maybe not. Hard to say if they even want to at this point. I'm no believer in this 100+ days without a manager stuff but this recruitment process has been slow and quite disappointing to this point.
It’s pathetic that it’s dragged on this long. Seems to me like we’re really struggling with our number 1 target - they’d have been here by now if that wasn’t the case!
While the owners are pi$$ing about find a new coach.. the club have announced its retained list and are now ( allegedly) in talks about the possible sale of Bellingham.. no doubt a few of our other Crown Jewels are being discussed as well, Neil, Clarke Ballard Hume etc… do the owners not think any new coach in charge of the first team squad should have a say in this… seemingly not
They'll only leave if the money is right no matter who comes in as coach. I wouldn't be shocked if Bellingham has a release clause for a Prem team now we didn't go up.
But Prem clubs can see the potential unlike a large pool of our fans. They'll bed him in over 5/6 months with the view of being ready towards the run in. I remember arguing with people Dan Neil will be a Prem player back when we were in L1. My brother-in-law thought he'd struggle in the Championship.
He's not ready mate...he doesn't think quickly enough. If he's got potential,he hasn't shown much of it.
How deep is your water??? Cos if it don't happen thus next fortnight the lads come back to no manager no coaching stsff other than doddsy we are right in the ****.
