It's informed by what we know publicly.

If you've got anything public that indicates it's all gone smooth as silk, now's the time.

This is exactly the issue here - 'anything that doesn't agree with me is guesswork'

A hundred and whatever days strongly suggests my guesswork is more likely than your guesswork.

The very first thing you said is guesswork, unless you're the appointed spokesman for our entire support.

"The reaction would be the same."

The rest is just your guesswork on how things have gone behind the scenes.

Things posted on forums aren't fact, just so you know.

Here's an example 'At which point looking at anyone else stopped. '

The reaction from Celtic fans. Read the conversation before diving in.

And I would suggest that you're the self appointed spokesman. Trying to get after everyone who doesn't agree with you for over a thousand pages now.

Don't agree with something? Scroll on by and let people talk about it who can do so without turning it into a bunfight.

It's always the 'positive' side trying to start trouble.

1) the club HAD commitment from WS but for some reason (we probably will never know) either he or the club had to wait until season end, most likely some contract issue, before they could officially make a move.

a full agreement had been discussed and formailised with a contract drawn up ready to sign, it was at that time WS had his head turned, the club appears to have given him time to think it over then moved on, i honestly can see nothing wrong in such a scenario as people are entitled to take the best offer for themselves.

this is of course taking the little we have heard into account, adding it all up it seems to be the most likely outcome..

2) .the other option is that the club have sat since february then had a 'panic attack' stab at finding a coach and have been knocked back by several due to the clubs own restrictions on staffing, transfers etc.

personally, i believe the first part and that some lads have managed to grab small slips of info they tried to keep us informed about... and i can understand those with little to no faith in the club believing the second part just remember: patience is a virtue but beer fuelled flapping on a forum is not.

"Positive " side? It's all the flapping that does my head in. Like @TopCat_ said to yhe poster who liked your post... Your version of the truth. Your unsupported supposition attempting to create alarm that doesn't exist.

Smug I think you have nailed how alot of people feel and maybe don't even realise it. We generally know what we are getting looking around this country but there is something exciting about looking at someone different from abroad. It could fail miserably like any other but at the same time it feels the ceiling could be anything. With the likes of Rosenior, the ceiling just doesn't seem too high

Doesn’t 99% of managers fail miserably though, the sooner we get that to sink in the sooner we accept no manager lasts very long.

Jansen would defo be a coup. The only reason I don’t have that opinion on Rosenior is because I’d totally understand if he bottled it year after year but last season was actually his first full season as a head coach and he’s not even 40 yet. So to me that gives me the reassurance of he has plenty potential to grow and be flexible with his ideas. I’m sure he will learn from that and if it isn’t with us I can see him getting another team into the playoffs next season

I get that but don’t forget the squad Rosenior had at his disposal. Mowbray got play offs with a newly promoted team and a worse squad so it’s not really a great indication. I doubt Rosenior will walk into a squad as good as he had last season to go at it again.

Anar blondie but on the flip side, everyone is using supposition for their viewpoint. People just see it differently but we all want the bastard same thing

Which sadistic bastard first said "No news is good news?"

That's what I want to know. What a stupid saying.

Whilst I wasn't the first person to say it, I must confess that I did comment on how quiet the club was, and the fact that there had been no leaks. I then went on to say how much I liked that.

Therefore I plead guilty by association your honour.

Jansen ball sounds awful like, got to be honest. Might very well get us flying but this sounds so frustrating to watch. It’s everything we’ve hated in our own team this past season…slow and ponderous, sticking with players even when they’re not performing, relying on Clarke to get us out the ****.

@AzAlkmaar has provided some great detail and a brilliant insight but you have to remember that it is just one person's view, people see things differently. If a foreign fan asked me what Allardyce is like they'd get quite a negative impression about him but I know half our fans think he's god. It's all about opinions.

Have a quick watch of this, it's from a couple of months before Jansen was sacked, he sees things a bit differently from AzAlkmaar on here (though they've got common views on some bits). The lad in the video does say that AZ fans are known for being pessimistic and critical by nature. Surely that's not true @AzAlkmaar ?! ;)

I'm not saying either view is more accurate or worth more than the other (I'm in no place to judge) but it's always worth getting a broad range.

People aren't exaggerating when they say Jansen's team loves a cross (you can probably tell how I'm spending my weekend! I know it's all probably in vain and he won't come)

Hemir might finally be able to score . I hope we go for Moore since he’s in his last year and Bournemouth want to sell.

I'm not attempting to create alarm man. I'm just offering my opinion on what's supposed to be a board for discussion.

You see the results of trying to shut down anything judged as 'negative' on Facebook etc. all the time. Groups split off, or they purge all dissenting thought, and then die because there's nothing to discuss because any disagreement is seen as 'negative'

And to be honest, if anything anyone posts here about football alarms anyone, then maybe the Internet isn't for them.

My position is much better supported, from what little we know. If it wasn't, then I wouldn't have that position. Why take anything else? Faith? Done that, eventually you get tired of getting kicked in the balls.
