Don't you think it's just that you find out something is in the offing at other clubs later in the process than we do our own?

Like the nationals only really carried the Walter story this week, though it's been anticipated locally much longer.

No I don't think thats it. Honestly, I think it's probably more to do with a kind of relaxed patient attitude which I'm sure can be good and bad depending on the situation.

3 and a bit weeks isn't that long for appointing a manager from a cold start. Especially at a time when most of the european football industry is holidaying with family.

If you want 'patient' have a look at Sunderland.
 
Considering Norwich and Bayern approached managers after us, no I don't think it's just noticing things later. Norwich had an entire play off campaign and then sacked their manager and appointed theirs before us. Ultimately it wouldn't matter if Acun didn't continue to leak names and set expectations but he does so oh well.

Norwich have also at the same time as appointing a new head coach have appointed a new assistant coach who was in a different country to the new head coach. Don’t praise anything Norwich have done though, some will be foaming at the mouth with indignation.

I'm talking from the point of it being 95% done, not a cold start. At this stage of the season taking a few weeks to hunt for the right man is fair. Sunderland is a totally different prospect as they don't even seem to know who they want.

Wish they’d hurry up I’m dying to start a Walter out thread

l too have been procrastinating over starting that very thread.
Since Walter joined, we’ve won nothing! We haven’t gained a single point in the league, won no cup games, not even scored a goal. He’s also signed no one of quality. Disgraceful behaviour.

Think Baz reported he was spending time with family last week prior to getting stuck in here.

And I'm sure Sunderland have a couple of candidates but who they get will depend on which of them goes elsewhere.
