It's always been a select few decide we can't afford it when we demonstrably can. I admire your confidence regarding the finances! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terminally Yellow 2,481 Posted October 30, 2023 Someone like Pearson may be a suitable candidate to take the helm until the end of the season though, to give Knapper the chance to bed in. I mean this season is a write off already, so anyone who can just keep us away from the bottom three while giving us a bit more steel and defensive capability would do IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is on a rolling 12 month contract so we can’t pay his settlement in one chunk. It’s cheaper to sack him than he relegated though isn’t it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There’s enough people in the boardroom with enough zeros in their bank to cover anything we need to pay in my view. Be that Delia and Michael or the Attanasio’s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,283 Posted October 30, 2023 Wagner must be on one hell of a 12 mth salary then if we can't afford to sack him. If it does come down to money we really must be in the ****, more than we thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samwam27 532 Posted October 30, 2023 How the hell did we get in this position. Wasn't Wagner out of work so we shouldnt have to be paying an exorbitant salary, even if its a 12 month rolling one Its not like he was an A list candidate, even a B, C or D list Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samwam27 532 Posted October 30, 2023 Just wish we could headhunt an up.and coming manager in the way we sacked Gunn, and went straight for Lambert. That would be worth the investment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
