If Selles has been interviewed, you’d think he will be a front runner given that he’s already in a job, otherwise we wouldn’t be looking to pay compensation.

There’s too many “good” managers out of work for us to choose from, I can’t see any need for us to try to get someone who is currently in post, adds unneeded costs & time delays
 
Has he been on talksport, I’ve had it on and off so may have missed it

Any news on that, no access to TV now at workplace, one day they will block not606 too because of me.

He was on but it was a pre-recorded bit so very short.

- Said he was going to give Tim more time but fan reaction at Wednesday game changed his mind.
- Said they’ve conducted 6 interviews
- Said something about a different mindset this time around but didn’t expand much on that.

Simon Jordan then went in a bit on him saying that for all the good he’s done that basically every action since sacking Rosenior has been a disaster. Said he also recommended a name to Tan Kesler when they’d narrowed it down to Tim Walter. Also mentioned that the sacking was a surprise given that he thought Rosenior and Acun had a very good fit together professionally.
 
If we've interviewed Eustace and we're only accepting those that can be arsed to send in a CV he'd be the one we'd choose.

Can't be unwilling to pay a fee for him and get it to this far

But i suppose the winner's probably going to be the one who says they can work with what we've got.

i don’t think the coffers are empty. Acun has already said they’ll be active in January and I suspect that some loans may be cancelled and players like Giles may be on the transfer list.

How did Acun answer ?
 
I still can't look past Eustace. He'll be on a low wages at Blackburn with no money to spend. Give him a big pay rise and money to spend in Jan and I think he'd be tempted.
Will be ironic if he walks out on a club near the top of the table in the same way there was outrage when he was sacked whilst in a similar posiiton with Birmingham.
 
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.

There is a Championship team in there but it is bare bones in some areas and needs a good window.

Pandur, Rushworth, Racioppi
Giles, Hughes, Jones, Drameh (Burns possibly) Coyle as back up.
Mehlam, Simons, Alzate, Puerta, Zambrano, Palmer, Longman, Millar, Belloumi

The rest I wouldnt want anywhere near my team. We have no strikers worthy of a starting shirt and 2 of the midfielders long term injured with a third on a lengthy ban. We need a clear out in January and some early incomings.

Yep. Another one. In Acun's what 7th or 8th window? And every one has been the same, although the summer clear out was forced on us to some extent. Piss up and brewery comes to mind
 
Why? One would be his choice (if he made it) the other was a decision he had no control over
There was an outrage over a club deciding to change manager in a healthy position yet he could potentially leave a club in the lurch and ruin their chances of a strong season by walking away without finishing the job. Managers demand loyality from players and owners but are just as bad, Steve Bruce being a classic example over the years.

If you accept a contract then honour it.
