cheshire_red Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Just read on another thread there is a 14 day quarantine if travelling to Guernsey, are we waiting for SL to be able to come over to the UK without having to face quarantine on his return home?

petehinton Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Just now, bcfc01 said: Would Holden or Hughton need second interviews ? Holden has been here for a few years and Hughtons CV says it all - one interview should be enough for both. they'd probably use second interviews to talk more about personal finances, living arrangements and all that kinda stuff. In Hughton's case, surely you'd want to see someone more than once before hiring them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warwickshire Red Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 While I’m not necessarily expecting it, it wouldn’t surprise me if MA left shortly after the season starts like Pell did after the 2015 Cotts transfer shananigans. It’s not been a smooth process and someone may have to answer for it. There’s previous as per the Live article too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 At the end of the day i will be happy to see the back of SL, JL and MA. The way they have treated the fans is a disgrace.

This whole situation is no doubt a mess but I really don't understand anyone going this far. Particularly after what we've just seen happen to Wigan! We are so lucky to have the stable ownership we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an appointment by Christmas at this rate If it's a race, it's a bloody endurance one! Like a triple ironman... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a man who bangs on about being very clear about the fact he has lots of lists and plans meticulously, I'd also like to know what he was doing for the 14 weeks of lockdown too. Even after his voluntary 20% pay cut, based on his 2018 salary he'd have earned over £100k between the Fulham and Sheffield Wednesday games, and had no plan a month later.

Nogbad the Bad Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 48 minutes ago, Harry said: For what it’s worth, my £10 would still be on Hughton. I’m convinced that the Fulham interest in him has been the hold up. Holden was the back up plan if Hughton went to Fulham. I think the phone calls will be made today to both parties, Holden to tell him they’re resuming talks with Hughton, whilst the call to Hughton will be to nail down the requirement to keep Holden in the coaching team. Ridiculous - Hughton may feel he simply can't work with Holden. Are we to miss out on him for that? The City board seem to think DH is a Championship standard manager. In that case don't hold him back - give him his wings and see where he lands. I doubt it will be as manager of a Championship rival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only point I'm making is that - lovely though they are - Bristol City Football Club does not begin and end with the Lansdown's and their patronage. They're not a charity, they get something out of it. It existed before them and it will exist afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
