The Dog 19 Posted January 7 It feels more and more likely to me that our board will finally wake up and sack Wagner at the end of January, just as the transfer window closes. They will finally make the decision when we have taken few if any points form Hull, West Brom and Leeds games and been knocked out the cup by Bristol Rovers. The decision will be reluctantly made as they will suddenly start to panic about season ticket renewals. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Real Buh 3,479 Posted January 7 The decision will either not be made at all or so late that it’s genuinely hilarious. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S_81 833 Posted January 7 Hard to be confident they’d even act then. Feels more likely to me that unless we start to drop toward the relegation zone, they won’t act at all until the end of season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CardiffCanary 131 Posted January 7 I think it’ll be about 10 games before the end of the season make sure we are safe then act then Ridiculous they are praying we sneak into the playoffs which we all know is not happening! So essentially this season is written off now ( unless he goes next week, which ain’t happening!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,274 Posted January 7 Nothing will happen this season Delia loves him. He'll probably get 10 games of next season just in case. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norwich canary 76 Posted January 7 In reality they have no idea what they are doing so there will be no logic in terms of when he will go and that’s a fact Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Real Buh 3,479 Posted January 7 The board will enact “operation victim” very soon. Itll be “we’ve had threats” etc etc Somehow, some way. I dunno you guys I’m just getting the feeling that all of this might very well be, and I know this will shock you Our. Fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Paddons Beard 2,446 Posted January 7 (edited) Webber has been the decision maker at the Club. He sacked Farke and got Smith and Wagner. He has left and has left a vacuum , to be filled by a guy who a) has never done anything like this before and b) has only just arrived to a brand new club . It is no surprise that he hasn’t acted. It isn’t even certain that he would know who to get in Wagners place . We will see what contacts he has . If he just adjudicates on applicants then that seems a retro step. Our success has been going out to get people we want - Lambert, Neil , Farke . Trick is knowing , and how to get them. McNally knew as did Webber. That’s how “headhunting” works. As for players , we will see if he has a plan . So far all is quiet . Let’s hope he is peddling fast beneath the surface.

For the future 68 Posted January 7 Any other club would have acted in November 2023 when results were going wrong for us the fans and the club does not care.my suggestion is to sack the manager and loan out the players who don’t want to play for the club, Delia and her husband need to sell there shares to a new owner with money to invest to buy good young players for next season.

Webber knew to start with Exactly what was needed What i was disappointed in Webber was he said he would always be looking ahead as in if Manager left or was Sacked he would have kept a eye on the football world for the next in Line that's what let him down he didn't , Zoe Ward said the same when Wagner was Hired and that was a load of Rubbish something along the lines of we keep a eye on Managers around the world at all times then Wagner Stu's mate is Hired Same when Smith was Hired Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Hairy 3,779 Posted January 8 I don't think D&M want any part of his sacking at all, I wouldn't be surprised to see him hang around until after the takeover is fully completed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satriales 685 Posted January 8 I thought Wagner was on a rolling contract which is up for renewal this month. Wouldn't now be the best time to get rid of him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the moment it does feel like there is little positive decision-making from occurring and we are treading water/regressing. The return of little old Norwich is making a strong comeback.

The break clause probably exists but as discussed elsewhere will be based on a season ending KPI - which we are frequently told by the club is to get promotion. Fail to do that and the club can instigate the break clause at the end of the season (practically this could be confirmed as early as the Binners match) if they want but would Smith & Jones feel so inclined if the EFL haven't approved Attanasio's share purchase? Wagner is just dragging it out to draw in more coin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Great Mass Debater 1,092 Posted January 8 February 1st, to ensure no money is expended in the transfer window and the new manager will have a grace period as 'it's not his squad' 'not suited to his style'. Then sack him February 2025 and repeat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shef i posted earlier is the Break Clause worth waiting for how much will it save us waiting ? 250k 500k maybe a million a lot of damage can be done to club in the time from now till summer players who might of stayed might say had enough of this get out ( we wanted to keep ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
