You’re right, or Enzo. But just couldn’t be arsed to specify, applies to everyone else in between though.

Was convinced it was going to be this week, is getting silly now.

Considering they want a permanent appointment by the sounds of it, I honestly have no idea where they realistically turn to right now. Other than something absolutely rotting.

Think too much is made of managers commanding respect, certainly with us. We've tried all sorts of types & experience and they've all lost the dressing room eventually if not from the off.

Get the feeling he'll make the bench tomorrow. King has absolutely no options, has to start the same midfield as last week and doesn't really have an academy product to use on the bench either. Just hope they keep Winks at arms length.

Think the last few pages are a marker that the club aren't going to please some of you whatever they do from this point. Sadler was one of many good staff appointments by Pearson and was here throughout the glory years of Pearson, Ranieri and Rodgers, knows this club inside out and knows what it takes/took for this club to be successful. King says in his presser himself that he has a 10 year working relationship with him and details what he brings to the club. Yeah his interim period was honking - but I don't think the bloke ever wanted to be a manager anyway. He comes from an analysis background. Good appointment of a bloke who knows this club and knows what it took to be successful - Certainly not one of "Rudkins boys". I'd probably wager he'd be on King's staff full time wherever he ends up one day if he has the choice.

Not even Kingy wants it

Either you’ve noticed that he’s appeared on the betting, or you know something

Any chat of anything north of 4m and people need to give their head a wobble. He had 6 months left of his contract, use your brains people, let alone how useless he is

You shoot down a lot of names in your posts - Is it Hassenhutl you want from memory? there's too many posts to remember? If so, isn't happening.

And Ray Parlour. Hamza approves.

Refuse to watch another of these after Marti ball being the polar opposite to what he suggested it was going to be in his episode.

Pereira? Not for me, would stick a rocket up the players but would end up riling the fans too. Doesn’t stick around very long. Don’t have the players for his usual system. Recruits poorly. Elements of him we need, elements of him we really don’t.

Nope, at Palace.

Don't think we'll go for Skubala, Collomosse is merely suggesting we should. Not sure I agree - Think these players would eat him (or any other young manager) alive. Also think there will be section of the fanbase that will never get over the fact he used to be a PE teacher in Leicestershire destined to fail from the off.

Imagine the throwback of seeing Alan Sheehan and his assistant Richard Stearman on the touchline, then we really would be reset back to 06/07

Yeah don't get me wrong he's more expansive than some, you are right. It's probably unfair to put him in that bracket. I would be more inclined to give him more than a "until the end of the season" contract than Rowett, Coleman or whoever else appears over the next few days. Mowbray is my number one choice in an absolute shitshow situation we're in - In my opinion the closest we're getting to a Pearson style appointment.

No I fully agree mate, I'm not against Mowbray or Rowett I think they're both astute picks until the end of the season - nothing more. I would go for Mowbray because I think he's the most likely to turn this completely around and achieve something special - likes younger players too. Still makes you sick this is the point we've got to though.

Not sure if this is the right thread to post in as this is more of a live events commentary thread, but does anyone have any tips how to get going with darts as a sport? Been obsessed with watching for a good 3/4 years now and have finally plunged into buying a full home set up, any tips welcome.

Agreed but it's still damning of the pool we're fishing in, absolute shambles. I think barring Mowbray I would rather King. At least Mowbray has some sort of potential of something past the summer because he would build something regardless of the situation.

Is amazing how Rudkin is handed keys to the city yet doesn't say a word, let's get him squirming infront of a camera too rather than Top's broken English.

Can't comprehend the pool we're fishing in I would like Mowbray because I've "accepted" what we've been resulted to, but Rowett and Coleman too, christ on a bike

This is just a total myth.

Fully expecting them to offer a pragmatic firefighter (Rowett, Mowbray) a 3 year deal despite all the soundbites about style of play today. Total contradiction.

Compare Tanner's piece to Percy's and you can see a clear difference in wording in terms of where allegiances are - whether that be who they think are in the wrong or protecting relationships.
