I know you’ve started running recently mate, but didn’t think you were on the old Nigel Adkins diet too!! Funny you should mention Nigel Adkins ....

OldlandReddies Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 Perhaps clubs have been told no fans at all next season . If so, I can fully understand them sticking with Deano. He knows the current crop and clearly there will be very few ins and outs anywhere due to desperate finances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is honestly the most surprising thing in all of this. How many times does this happen in football? To be manager-less for a month and yet no one really has a clue who we're appointing! Quite impressive really (assuming it's not just because the board don't know either yet!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like he posts about how in ITK he is or tries to get some kind of glory from it. Just posts stuff that he has heard and it more often than not has been - thats it. If you really think he just makes stuff up then just put him on ignore. Personally - If he does just make stuff up then I'm still quite happy to listen to him as someone not ITK but incredibly and consistently good at predicting things!

I'd rather we were putting that 500k plus towards getting the manager we want, than paying it to a chief executive every year. ...and where’s the millions of pounds of transfer fee income going to come from then? Whatever fans might think of MA, his negotiating skill has paid for his and the manager’s salary for a few years. For everyone who thinks we would have got the fees anyway, how many honestly thought we could get £33m for Kelly and Webster? MA’s involvement probably got us around £10m more than we could reasonably have expected. Whether we like it or not, that ability is crucial in funding the club's on field efforts and will be even more important in the next few seasons.

Then again maybe not Cheers for the inside info I think it actually lines up with what @Kid in the Riot is saying quite nicely. City want Hughton (after Gerrard turned us down). Hughton wanted City. City interview Hughton (Talksport assume deal done - Gregor says not, which is correct). Hughton snd City not on same page. If they can’t get on same page, need to look at others (Cook, maybe Neil). In the meantime, Watford, Bournemouth jobs become available. Hughton has bargaining power. City panicking now. Hughton still might have his ace (Fulham) up his sleeve. City can’t move / force a decision until after tomorrow nights match. Which leads us to.... 4 hours ago, daored said: Agree , it won’t be Holden ...if Hughton won’t be forced into coming here....it might still be Holden.

Nugget Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Could still be something contractual eg after tomorrow the season technically ends, youd imagine they make play off final date the real end of season date...... perhaps that is a cut off for some former payout / compensation etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with @Davefevs comments I think we’ve been unable to agree terms with Hughton and now Bournemouth job has been available (potentially Fulham) I think the club has a backup Neil & Cook but obviously the longer we wait the bigger chance we’ll end up with Holden as the club will be backed into a corner with options.

So the only way to break the chain of events is for Fulham to win. They then keep Parker, Bournemouth go Terry, Hughton reluctantly joins us. Score.

YGBjammy Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Should have got Hughton on the roof with a can of thatchers in-hand before the playoffs even started. How the hell are we in a situation where we're getting involved with things relating the the playoff final, a whole month after we sacked LJ.
