Im pretty sure we will move on quite a few this year which will free up some funds . I would like to think SL would back him with more money than ever given to a City manager as he’s a proven winner . Couldn’t put a number in it . Media seem to think it’s Danny Cowley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No income for months now and little prospect of much moving forward for a good while at least I honestly wouldn't be surprised if any new gaffer will have to work with what they have plus the odd loan/free transfer for this season and purse strings loosened 21/22 should revenue streams be getting back to normal.

bristolmoose Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 My mate in Yorkshire saw the Cowley Brothers on a tandem heading out of Huddersfield in a south-westerly direction earlier today.

Port Said Red Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 If we were talking about a player, a lot of us would be concerned that we were giving a nice little earner to a someone looking for a nice part of the world to retire in. I like Hughton and admire what he has done, but I don’t know him well enough to know if he is still motivated enough to work out here. He has achieved promotion out of this league more than once, he has nothing to prove, it’s not a new fresh challenge in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pure attention seeking. The problem is that if people who know bits and pieces just blurt it out for all to see - they'd stop finding out bits and pieces very quickly. That's the issue for lots of people who hear things about the club, they'd probably love to tell us all but can't otherwise their sources would dry up fast. It's cryptic clues and occasional emojis or nothing at all until they're able to reveal more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a little bit of additional context, I’m not saying this is definitely happening, but it’s definitely not dead in the water. There you go. No one needs to be made to ask anything more.

Newcastle was a squad that was just too good for the division. Brighton arguably quite similar to us? Ex top flight for a few seasons then a bit of time in all of the other 3 divisions before a new owner & ground brought some momentum. I think the challenge with City is quite an appetising one, surely, with the owner, the ground & the size of the city that would appeal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Harry is spot on , to paraphrase if you allow me , it possibly will or possibly won’t happen. I hope that clears up any confusion.
