If this was to happen, it would be a bit awkward for me as I work at their Community Trust, surrounded by their supporters, most of whom are getting quite excited about their prospects!
Surely that rules out Eustace? Doubt Blackburn would let him go before playing us if they could help it
Half the players we’ve signed ain’t good enough . Nowhere near the quality of players who left. Huge job ahead for new manager. Vocal encouragement needed more than ever. Allam’s GONE.
It's a huge task for anyone to come in and turn this around.We have 'some' decent players but we've also got a serious lack of skill and experience at this level.We make mistake after mistake on a weekly basis and we're duly punished for it by teams who may not look as good on paper but know how to grind it out in the Championship. I welcome whoever we bring in and wish him luck,we'll need a fair chunk of it..UTT!!
I'm not sure to be honest, sorry. I think I can assume we comfortably pay more than Blackburn though. Their owners are worse than the Allam's for wages.
I was told Tim W was on 500k / year + win bonuses…..so 500k it was then!! could well be BS but that’s what I was told
I have no idea how much the Allam's paid but I don't think Steve Bruce was here for the good of his health?
According to SB when he was interviewed old man Allam offered him what he had been on 10 years previously!
The Allams' spending yo-yod hugely. Bruce was probably on decent money but by the end they were spending as little as possible.
Think he’s assuming given Blackburn’s expenditure has to go through so many hurdles in Indian legal system due to their owners being from India and some complications involved with that. It was inferred the Sczmodics and Wharton sales heavily helped them stay financially compliant this year.
It'd be a pleasant surprise if we really did appoint a new manager as soon as people are quoting, but the club are terrible with these sorts of timescales. It always happens with our signings that the player is known to be all but signed for several days before they actually sign, and often Baz gets word that they think they'll get it done for match X but it turns out to be much later.
Baz’s article lists 7 names one of which is Robins and he’s allegedly refusing the interview. So the 6 we may have interviewed include Schumacher Eustace Jokanovic Selles Neil Hughton
Odd it's gone from acun being happy to take it slow to making an appointment imminently. Guess my interview went well.
