That's the best we have to go on but that view from inside the club was contrary to anything i had been told.As far as i was aware Tam was our next manager in waiting and i posted these exact words on this very board,FACT.
And as I said, the long term plan was for Courts to take over, unfortunately that plan didn't involve Mellon leaving when he left. If this was 2023 then Courts would have been in straight away. When Mellon left/pushed/sacked that changed everything. Courts MIGHT still get the job, but if he does its because nobody outstanding has come forward. Also everyone's opinion on 'outstanding' is different, as you can see by opinions on here.
