Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach

[FE123]

Interesting that Jackson describes the potential appointment as Head Coach/Manager. Does this also mean that GB is going and Eustace will report directly into Suhail and Waggott?

Think you need to hold a face to face in a function room with your followers. 

They’re both lovely people in fairness…

Eustace - did well with Birmingham but being brutally honest has done nothing of note in this league. As we are a team with the aim of doing nothing in the league it seems a likely appointment.

We’ll just have to set our expectations to low and hope he eventually exceeds them.

And if it all goes wrong boo the right people, not the manager.

More likely that Jackson doesn't know which, so is putting both options and hedging his bets

Waggot will be glad the JDT news overshadows the EFL booting out our case today.

Good point.

If he actually wants to, then i'd like Gregg to stay - he's done a good job considering some of the bollocks he's had to put up with. He's tied down key players and young prospects with long contracts, and is responsible for some shrewd bits of business in the transfer market.

He's received a lot of undeserved criticism, and has clearly had to make himself the scapegoat during his time here... but I feel like he's one of the few people left at the club with a brain.

Keep Gregg. Let Eustace come in, to focus purely on the football.

This is the interesting part.

Can he do good football and developing players? And dealing with charlatans and crackpots?

Doubt it.

Do we ever reckon Suhail picks the team?

Assume he was at Cov at the same time as SW

Checked wiki and he left Coventry in 2003 so way before SW’s time there 

Edit - just seen this has already been pointed out.

Jim White on Talksport now talking about Rovers

[Torgeir]

It's just palliative treatment at this point. Wake me up when Waggott has resigned.

[joey_big_nose]

Tbh if we get Eustace that makes a lot of sense as he got Birmingham out of a relegation battle last season. So despite not being that experienced he has the right experience.

I can't listen to that mad bloke any more, dread to think what he is saying, luckily at work and can't listen

I can only ever listen to Bob Mortimer's impression of him, which is amazing

I’m sorry if I have misunderstood something but did Glen say payments were found from the club to pay someone to threaten him? 

Cheers for clearing this up in advance.

Yes
