    2 weeks ago I’d of been all up for cowley to be honest. Seems like a good bloke, forward thinking and well prepped with his “footballing bible”. The style might be ****e but remember we didn’t exactly turn in to Barcelona under allardyce, we just won games which is what we need now.

    think with us all being ready for gus anyone in our minds is going to be a right let down unless they pulled some exotic unknown European in. The main thing for me is that he fits the structure, understands and accepts it.

    Of course it doesn't prove it. And it may be that there are new people involved who have earmarked Danny Cowley as their man, and he will have my support if he arrives . (I say Danny as he seems to be the lead , and there really must be a lead figure, one manager, whoever is his assistant or partner.)

    But as things currently sit, with no official confirmation of new owner-ship and the familiar sense of chaos and dysfunction in the air, it is not at all unreasonable for some to think that the chancers are still having too much of a sayl.

    We'll see soon I imagine, and I myself am comfortable assuming that there is some good change on the way, but dismissing it out of hand is not in line with what we actually know, and can see at the moment

    More likely a tweet from a journalist but I'd settle for anything tbh.

    I understand if you can't comment but did this news have anything to do with the name that Tom White mentioned in that What the Falk podcast?

    I think the last two and a half seasons have proved that’s not going to happen without a change of direction.

    Do you know it’s a lot worse to employ a person over qualified for a job than it is to employ a person under qualified for a job a person under qualified can learn as they go a person over qualified just thinks I’m better than this s hite believe me I’ve done it.

    It’s bad enough for us know nowts, getting het up over rumours of something “exciting”. Imagine how **** it must be to those that actually hear the exact details waiting for it to be official and then bang, **** all

    Or maybe he didn’t fancy league 1 because it doesn’t pay much. He didn’t say what was wrong with managing in league one so it’s fair to assume league 1 money wasn’t what he needed “ at this stage of his career “
