chichcanary 0 Posted August 14, 2009 Might as well start a "who''s taking over" threadWill it be Crook - if so I can''t see the logic. If they are sacking Gunn because of Saturday''s result why promote one of his deputiesWill they re-advertise and get someone from outside and presumably replace Butterworth / Crook etcThe whole thing makes no sense basically Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Things are looking up 0 Posted August 14, 2009 At last someone in the club with the guts to do something. We have a good squad all they need is a good leader and that includes a decent captain on the pitch too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blainsey 2 Posted August 14, 2009 Adrian Boothroyd. I dont know anything but its a hunch.Crook and Butters surely have to go? They''re all just as culpable!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blahblahblah 2 Posted August 14, 2009 [quote user="chichcanary"]Why after 1 game though - why let Gunn spend all the transfer money and bring in a new manager?[/quote]Maybe this is what has been holding up Stefanovic and Russells'' departures ? Maybe their releases will allow the new bloke to bring in a couple more new faces. It does seem like odd timing though, 17 days left of the transfer window, and we''re starting (what is usually a 3 week ) process to bring in a replacement.

StevoM 0 Posted August 14, 2009 Going on the recent trend it will be someone with both Gunn and Roeder''s abilities combined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobfleck 0 Posted August 14, 2009 Surely Robins would be just another ''bleeds green and yellow blood'' appointment? I''m hoping the new faces on board will be a little less inclined to repeat the mistakes of the recent past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chichcanary 0 Posted August 14, 2009 I''d be very happy with Robbins - just happier with him being appointed at the end of last season so he could have built his own staff / squadSurely if we have to pay off Crook / Butterworth / Deehan that''s more money down the toilet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary02 III 0 Posted August 14, 2009 [quote user="chichcanary"]Why after 1 game though - why let Gunn spend all the transfer money and bring in a new manager? [/quote]I think the prob was/is that Gunn was Delia''s appointment and so transfer budget etc was given to him. McNally has abided by this for as least time as possible because he''s spotted Gunn as a dead man walking, and as soon as he made a collosal arse of the Colchester game he pushed for early removal. The new board members are obviously much more proactive than their predecessors. However, he had to give Gunn a chance, but looks like he only had one chance!

Freeza 0 Posted August 14, 2009 I would not be surprised if it''s someone that McNally has worked with before so off top of my head without checking timings that both parties at club Gordon Strachan (Celtic) or Lawrie Sanchez (Fulham), who I would be pretty happy with.This does seem strange though, they must have someone lined up or this is just craziness.Robins I''d be fairly happy with but I''ve met him a few times while he''s been at Rotherham and he is quite boring, I wouldn''t be surprised if it was Paul Jewell or Adi Boothroyd though.But if someone comes in, they''ll just want to bring in a whole new backroom staff again, more money wasted!
