    No plan B

    Well even though i wanted him SB, out. It would appear the club has no plan A or B! It would be ideal during this break to have the new guy ready and in there but no everyone linked to us is running away, poisoned chalice maybe?

    So whos left and dare i say, would we have been better off keeping him? Too late now, we face the prosoect of K Mac prepping the team for Swansea....thats just not good enough

    Well they'd better hurry up Dave. As you say, the longer a new man has with the squad before Swansea, the better.
    I'd prefer Smith, have all along, but I fear the process may take quite a few days due to persuading the board, the man himself and paying off Brentford.

    Steady on Dave - we have sacked Bruce after a carefully planned cull of all his backroom staff and the new owners have a shortlist they're working thru. They offered Thierry the job apparently but he is choosing champions league and a team in his native country to manage. No hard feelings there. So their plan B would appear to be working thru the rest of the shortlist which seems to include Terry - who doesn't have his coaching badges. So I'm sure that means there has to be loads of beaurocratic paperwork to get him appointed. Also, it may be that the other candidates have impressed and there'll be a second round of interviews.

    I'd rather they get it right that just employ someone.

    Maybe Terry doesn't interview well or Faria has put forward a better plan for the future. Who knows! But to panic and say there isn't a plan B is a bit ott

    Mendes seems to have the owners interest. I think they’ll go with his guy.
