    As I said on another thread I think he has around half a dozen games to show he can keep us up. Both NC and NA have said releagtion won't happen under them. If Nigel doesn't think he can keep us up I think he will walk!

    I think (hope) that Nigel would get this 'easier' run of fixtures to turn things round.

    I think he'll have until February.

    He'll have the window to turn things around <ok>

    He won't be here that long if we continue losing.

    I think he'll be given to mid Dec, so if a new manager comes in he has time to assess the players etc.

    Di Canio on being linked to saints: "I don't understand why they would want me. I'm a nasty manager."

    He's an odd fellow.

    You said it, strang chap.

    And yep, December could well be the end of Nigel. Although I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he went this month.

    Unless his life is made unbearable, I don't think he will leave of his own accord and forgo the pay off. He may be loveable, but he's not stupid.

    I don't think he'll walk. If he does that he invalidates his contract and leaves empty handed. He has bills to pay like anyone else.

    He may be nuts, but he's right there. He's the polar opposite of Adkins in terms of attitude and personality. The only reason why Di Canio has been linked as far as I can see is because he's Italian and so is Cortese, as tenuous a link as you can get.

    One of my favourite sayings when I was at work was "We can do the impossible virtually straight away but sorry miracles take a little longer" Well we did the impossible by getting into the Premier in two years, it is going to take a miracle to stay their, but it is not impossible!

    Indeed, it seems unlikely there will be an official statement after all!

    Sounds spookily like Sibley's twitter bio...

    Yep, fair play there hasn't been an announcement. Just going on what was said to me. Has been posted elsewhere also.
