Reet, who's next?

Would we have to pay Hill any compo if it's announced today? Leaving it a day might make sense to make sure we don't

He hasn’t been sacked. His contract just hasn’t been renewed.

A bit rare that

Fella who told me it's just waiting to be announced guessed that the date might have a bearing on when we get the PSG

Can't see why but its prudent to be cautious

Be interesting to see what happens when he is announced regarding transfers etc. Normally have to wait for them to be back off holidays etc but I reckon most panicking about contracts and not away means we will see some early action 

PSG taking place as we speak I believe!

Go on , i give up.

What is PSG?

Photo, Scarf, Ground (and hopefully an extra G for massive Grin!)

Will the arrival of Evatt coincide with the Phillips and Lee dominoes toppling over

In the podcast interview he did he mentioned in his first season having to recruit after eceryone else had done theirbrecruitment, so I imagine he'll be keen to crack on.

But I think we'll have to wait until the salary cap has been announced first.

I thought the salary cap / our embargo were one of the same?

I'm thinking of when we appointed BSA. Don't recall that he'd previously managed in the league we were in at the time, though could be wrong. It proved to be rather fruitful in the end.

Of course money was bound to be an issue, but we have to trust fv; the previous appointment was needs must, but they've had time now.

Being so negative is a really sad way of viewing the situation, and I hope Sharron doesn't read it.

 

You are correct.  He'd never managed above division 3 level before he came to us.  I recall one of his earlier quotes about looking forward to working with better players.

Good managers are good managers and will adapt and relish working at higher levels, with more resources, greater pressure etc

The salary cap applies to everyone in the league. The embargo applies only to us.

The salary cap might be good for us because it might bring the rest of the league in line woth what we can spend, but then the embargo might restrict us even further.

I don't care for the name Ian.

Aside from our Ani.

Ian Huntley, Ian Brady, Ian 'H' Watkins, Ian Shipman - it's the go-to given name of animals. He's Steve until we sack him.

As opposed to plain old Ian Watkins; proper salt of the earth, stand up guy that he is? :-)

anyone spelling it Ian shouldn't be trusted TRIPLE FACT

He started a thread the other day entitled '2020/21'.

His first post 'We are not getting promoted, just so you all know'.

FFS life's too short.
