How thin is the ice this morning Sniff? Surely he gets the week to get a couple of results?

Ah well, maybe these two years have just been a dream. I’ve loved it

You do sense we're at the end of an era.

I believe the mid week game has saved Steve for now. We don't want to be preparing and going down to Fulham without a manager.

Guff like this is not going to help the atmosphere https://www.msn.com/en-gb/sport/football...c5a55&ei=9 . However with this potentially hanging over the club, would any potential new coach take the job if available?

Sensible, but with the irons in the fire I presume we are now actively sounding out other managers, I was told lopetegui had agreed a contract with us should results not improve.

It's true we have spoken with him (allegedly) but I can't confirm whether or not something was agreed.

Heard other names too.

Just out of interest I did a bit of a review into implementation of new style and tactics and the average time it takes for a team to begin playing a new way is 12 games.

I'm presuming the Potter idea is being revisited then if from this country? I'd still be shocked if it was anyone but lopetegui.

Im not sure about Potter. We should be using our premier league status to attract an absolutely top drawer coach, someone who is at the top level of their profession. And dont tell me clubs like ours cant attract these people. Money talks in the game and a lot of foreign coaches would jump at the chance of having a go at the prem and being rewarded accordingly.

Who would the English/British version of that be then Pap? Considering Sniff said from home and abroad?
