    The only way he gets a good move is if he’s a success so it’s win win in that scenario

    Apologies if I misunderstood the theme of your post. Thought you were suggesting we shouldn't comment on stories from journalists.

    What are you basing that on ? Really don’t get this pre-judging

    And if he does leave us for better things, look at the compensation big clubs are paying for managers these days. 10m+ for Kompanyand Maresca. That would go a long way towards appointing the next head coach.

    My gut feeling. I'm allowed it.

    He just seems the kind, to me, who is ambitious and will want to move up. Nothing wrong with that.

    Not at all mate, just saying some of these rumours grow into something they're not until they become 'facts'.

    It's not even just a gut feeling, he's spoke openly about wanting to leave Reims for the past 12 months. He's not a shy lad.

    Never said there was anything wrong with ambition but there’s only him knows what he would do

    I really hope so mate.

    Comfy plodders like Mowbray are fine but I think, for them, success would be scraping up in 6th place ...

    ... I'd like someone openly touting himself as a top 6 manager.

    I was correcting the theme of what I said as I thought you thought that I was saying there was something wrong with it - sorry for confusion,

    But we know the full story. Poor little KLD has been controlled for the last 4 years by the evil Speak-Man who has enforced on the Kingdom of SAFC his all controlling Model of Doom, which is designed to infuriate all in the kingdom and keep the inhabitants in an eternal state of championship. Meanwhile, his wicked henchman Doddsy has been hand picking recruits for the kingdom's army from a group of children in the much weaker nation of LeegUn. But Sir Will of Still will ride in on his Belgian charger and smite Speak-Man with a bottle of Brugse Zot and smash the Model of Doom simply by bringing his friends and signing a footballer over the age of 24.

    Yep as others have said... I'd take an Enzo Maresca scenario. One year of him getting us promotion and then £10m in compensation :D

    Heard this, but it doesn't discount the narrative that Still didn't tick all the boxes and we are looking for better.
    Agree, something not sitting right here.
    A lot of assumptions and rumours for me...

    I originally heard a story to get your house on Maric.

    We shall hopefully find out soon enough.

    I hope it doesn’t go the same way as the Will Grigg signing where we ended up throwing money to get him to sign when he didn’t really want to be here and his heart wasn’t in it..
    It’s one thing trying to get a good deal but paying over the odds for another Will may not be such a great idea.

    Provided they are sensible, KLD should stick to his spending limits on a new manager. There are still plenty out there.
