Robbored Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 For the first time in years I’m waiting to see who is appointed as our manager for next season before I renew - or maybe not. This week has been taken up with the ‘news’ that Ashton is off to Ipswich which most if not all of us are delighted about but so far no announcement as to who’s going to be in charge next campaign. We know that SL is here so will surely have met with Nige and hopefully agreed a deal but how long before the club give us an update on the situation? I’m seriously concerned that if Nige doesn’t want the job or is not offered an acceptable contract that we’ll end up with yet another manager with no proven record in the Championship and we’ll end up at square one again. It’s a worrying time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLRed Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 I’ve heard from a couple of sources that it will be Pearson on a 3/4 year deal. Can’t say they are reliable but random enough to get me hopeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marmite Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 It might be NP that's stalling on the deal not Steve. My advice Robbored, wait till its on the OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
