    He's probably just having a day out at the Ashmolean Museum. I'd be more interested if he was in Marseille.

    Not all football clubs are you’re right but most top clubs the manager calls the shots. We have already tried this approach only a few years back and the managers complained we bought loads of players they didn’t want

    Bit gutted if we've made a decision between Cowley and Johnson and picked one of them and Pearson has thrown his hat into the ring. Between them three it's a no-brainer for me, it would be Pearson hands down.

    Pearson is a weird one like. No doubting he'd be the best option BUT, he's volatile. KLD has never owned a club, Sartori barely so, maybe they want a safer pair of hands for their first managerial appointment?

    Do you really think for one moment Donald has recruited Speckman, or the technical director guy, his last act was to tell Rodwell to sack Parky l would expect and the next word as far as l am concerned is TAXI

    If there is even 1% chance of us getting Pearson/Phillips, they need to crack on and get it done!

    Which is a very reasonable assumption to make imo.

    Standing back from things. All seems a bit mixed up to me at the moment.
    talk yesterday of DOF and new structure. Manager announced today? Takeover still ongoing things to iron out

    Hopefully all of this is being driven by our new owners. That being the case if there are still a couple of things to sort out with the takeover
    I don't see how they can officially appoint people. Also don't see why anyone would sign up if takeover is still ongoing.

    All a bit confusing. Logically I think we'll see a takeover announcement followed closely by new structure and new people.
    If they are still ironing out a few things hopefully that is what the delay is.

    Being completely paranoid I'd be a bit confused if they announce the new manager and structure before the takeover is finalised

    I'm a big fan of Duncan and very disappointed when we let him go

    You'll see me Sunday. Like **** am I watching an Andrew Taylor lineup. I've never hated someone so quickly in all my life.

    No, and i have never said that either, unsure what your point is.

    You do realise Speckman or the TD hasn't been announced yet either? Reiterating my entire point that if a manager is appointed, then surely an announcement on the takeover would be provided also otherwise nothing alligns correctly.

    Hard work this.
