Heard little over the last 48 hours. Only think I have is the following.

News expected in next 24 hours.

That isn't from usual contact but a good one.
Nothing today but @Scout73 got the same info as me. See if it comes off. Needs too as we are pissing away vital time.
Its also about 2 months till the season start so not sure why folk are saying we'll be relegated nxt season

We have a whole transfer window to go and we will appoint a manager (at some point)

How we did last season wont have an impact on nxt season, the only way it might have is if we have the same manager in charge - dodds will 100% not be the manager next season

Now i get folk feeling down about the fact we havent got a manager in yet however, really dont understand writing off next season. I understand not being excited for next season at the minute but thats totally different to writing off the season

Our squad isnt good enough to challenge for promotion but its def better than being involved in a relegation battle - obviously we would need a half decent manager for that and not a mike dodds type!!
Scout, can you confirm you've received the same info as Prehab26 is alluding to?

The only thing that's keeping me hoping its Cifuentes, even though I think it would leak at the QPR end, is that we might be finalising everything with HIM before we go to QPR. Of course that's not technically "allowed" but it happens, everywhere.

So we may be concluding a deal with him, and THEN go to QPR. And if QPR have already set a compensation level weeks ago (as Nixon says, I know) , then the leaking from the QPR end might not happen until the deal is already agreed.

Happens all the time, aye. Clubs discuss with the manager before agreeing compensation. Stoke would have done the exact same to us with Alex Neil.
