This weather doesn't help anyone's mood either! Best wishes to all who are struggling and like Bob Hoskins once said (repeatedly), it's good to talk.
Imo, that statement that KLD made about a head coach being "imminent" last week didn't help one bit. Has me wondering whether they had a head coach ready to sign within a day or two and it went tits up at the last minute. Just leads to more questions than answers. I know folk will say damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Regarding a statement, but if there's nothing concrete to say then don't say anything at all.
Just think of it this way mate. Although it's a bit of a **** show at the minute trying to get a head coach in, at least we're not mags - even with all their riches! Plus the Euros are about to start at the weekend
I tend to agree, there were a lot wanting to hear something from the club but I've said a few times that no good can come of it - as folk will start to moan about it unless something happens quickly I am still hoping its announced this week
It only helped if it was genuinely imminent. It now looks like it was something to just buy more time and try and keep everyone onside. Fans are just sick of the whole thing now. Bit of a joke.
It's The Hope I Can't Stand. That's life supporting SAFC, but we love it really Have a good day everyone
I'm not particularly fussed one way or the other but it was a stupid statement. The PR department needs sorting imminently.
True. If it gets announced today or tomorrow then using the word 'imminent' was OK though, just. If we are in the end game right at this minute.
Lose-Lose situation Make a statement, fans will have a go at whatever is said. Don't make one and he's accused of taking the fans for granted by not communicating with them. People would be complaining either way.
They have put themselves into that situation though unfortunately. The statement created momentary relief and now has people feeling worse than if they hadn't put it out. For a club that are starting to look remarkably professional in some functions, they look incredibly amateurish in others. I praise them for their long term planning often but I'm critical of their failure to control the press, their customer/community engagement, and their overall PR. I'm pretty balanced. The statement was poor.

Hoping we sort a deal with rosenior this week but if he is waiting for the burnley interview it could drag on
