formerly known as ivan Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 Just now, havanatopia said: Which is why people need to calm down. Based on that logic yes. Based on how long the process has taken, maybe not. You can’t tell me if we were appointing Hughton it wouldn’t be done by now, same with Cook once he left Wigan. Everything is pointing to Holden. Even the fact we have let two players leave on loan today without a new manager casting an eye over them, unless they have already as they have been at the club for a while!

The drip feeding of loanee news this afternoon is all part of the PR. The themes will be playing youth, pathway and continuity. True. Wouldn't want to undermine Holden before he even begins plus what you say! Definitely part of it for sure but it's worth acknowledging that we would be somewhat hemmed in as well if it comes to pass. New managers especially those who are quite sought after tend to like a bit of a budget- whether wages or fees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy street for them as opposed to the fresh approach we were told was coming. Yeah I'm just predicting that will be a quote from Ashton. Along with "Dean has impressed us ever since he joined the club" and "Dean has all the attributes to take us to that next level". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedorDead BCFC Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 So far this year. Australia on fire Wales flooded Flu strain to end all flu strains We get lead up the garden path by SL and MA and end up with a 15 game experienced manager. F it’s only August as well.

Any financial changes (which I’m no expert on at all) wouldn’t be a surprise to the club though, especially with Ashton there. We know they approached Hughton and can be fairly certain we looked into Gerrard. We would have done this knowing about any financial changes in the future. It’s still not an excuse in my opinion.

Atticus Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 If it does turn out to be Holden, all disgruntled and disillusioned fans, you know what to do. Vote with your wallets. Its that simple. Jobs for the boys. Im f****** sick of it. The gulf between the numpties that run the club and fans is so wide. And if what that reporter says is true, external parties being interested in the job, no more so then Hughton. Then, that tells you all you need to know about our owner.
