    In light of our awful form I'm wondering if some of those listed as apparent front runners for the job are now rethinking their options and taking backward steps.

    After all a dead cat is........
    .......................... a dead cat.

    Time is running out and a new appointment is urgently needed.

    Dean Smith jumps from 33/1 up to 6/1 this morning - now 3rd favourite behind Allardyce and Warnock.

    I think Tan is waiting for the window to close before making an appointment.

    Whoever we get and whenever it happens, the biggest problem for me is it'll be Tan who makes the decision.

    Looks like the bookies are just shifting the odds to stimulate bets on different candidates.

    In saying that I would be happy with Smith but, FFS, get him in soon!!!

    Having the game rearranged for transfer deadline night is hardly ideal nor fair - that's of course if we intend signing anyone.

    Yep - Big Sam (68) and Colin (74) first and second favourites @ evens and 3/1 respectively.

    I can't envisage either of them getting it nor would I want them to. We need to move forward, though not at the expense of dropping a division.

    That could be expensive, but they simply have got to get this right this time.

    Just looked - better odds on BV for those three.

    Allardyce gone out to 5/2, Colin now out to 4/1, and Dean Smith is @ 6's.

    Despite Big Sam's denials, little has changed in the managers odds.

    He's still evens favourite with Skybet, but has dropped out to 3/1 with BV but still their favourite.

    Sounds like the bookies are operating a wheel of fortune technique. Where the wheel stops, that's your next favourite.

    Funny, predictive text, came up with wheel of TORTURE. Could be so right. It's torture for us at the moment.
