I smell a rat! There is no way on earth it gets to be as close as is reported, for then the reports to say it has fallen over for staffing and investment reasons. I think Walker should have engaged his brain before he posted that. Think about it, talks supposedly been going on a long time, at the contract offering stage, issues resolved through discussions. All posted by sensible folk. Now it is staffing and investment. Haway lads. Those two things are tucked away early doors, not 11th hour. Will Still hasnt suddenly gone oh Dodds is my assistant, sorry didnt realise. It is laughable. One of two things is going on here. The game is still afoot and Walker and others has been played. Last minute uturn he says - telling. Or the Lens thing is happening and Still wants to control the narrative. Either way I am not going to cry any tears over Still. He isnt some elite level coach after all. Numerous others at his level.
Yeah and it feels ****e either way. If its what KLD wants then I think I'd start to have doubts with his strategy despite thinking he is the right man to take us forward and being mainly really happy with what he has put in place since taking over. Undeniable the progress we've made in a relatively short period under him. If we end up getting rid of Speakman, it feels like a **** time to change the head of the football side at the start of a transfer window and preseason starting in a few weeks. How long would it take to replace him? A lot of upheaval at an important period for the club. Should he have just gone once the season finished?

Not at all, but don't believe endless rumours and gossip. It changes everyday, its going to be still then it's not.
hopefully the club have known this for a couple of days and been able to move to plan B. If they haven’t moved to plan B yet it might be too late to convince them.
Who would you go for now? I'm more than fine with the Rosenior and Maric links. Hope an Anthony Barry comes from nowhere into the race.
Shambles.. if Speakman is meant to be going why is he sorting the manager out? The new guy better not be lumbered with Dodds like, be in the same place next year I fear if true
It could be it all falls into place and everyone then believes that Still has his team and investment. A last minute double bluff by the club. I imagine it’s the complete opposite and a **** show.
Fishpaste suggesting that Still wasn’t first choice and his camp are leaking that it was his choice not ours https://twitter.com/capt_fishpaste/status/1796602413102792778?s=46
I think this makes a lot of sense mate but my worry is that we've been in talks for some time, with these snagging issues and the delay has resulted in other clubs (Lens) having a position available and then taking our first choice away after chasing him for months. I do agree with you re Still though, it's more about the club not getting what they wanted done that would disappoint me.
