Johnson Said in his interview with Elliot that Eustace spent 3 or 4 hours with them yesterday and had a big say and influence over how we set up today

Good win.McFadzean excellent. Jeez Stoke are awful

No looks like 4 at back .Brittain and Chrisene full backs

No quotes from Gregg on the official website welcoming him suggests to me it was somebody else. I'm sure we had plenty of Greg quote's when JDT was announced

He's in Manchester having some nice food with Greg

Cmon mate you have to give the photography team chance to take some pictures of smiling first team players shaking the hand of the new man It's an absolute joke.The JDT lost the dressing room line will be spun with a bunch of unhappy players Did he just lose the dressing room since the closure of the January window or was that when Maggott was made aware as at most normal clubs the manager/coach would be out before an important transfer window

Maybe ,I suppose anything could be happening with this lot. But you would expect if it is a sacking it would be more cut and dry and be done now as surely there would be a legal requirement to pay JDT up. My belief is it's the other way round that we are wanting compensation, even though the relationship looks beyond repair and it's inconceivable that JDT would be in the dugout again, a sacking would have been coming anyway especially after being critical of the ownership in his last press conference

That's what is being reported,sry I should have said reportedly . There have been no reports that JDT is seeking compensation and that is the post I was responding too . What else do you think the hold up could be then?

It's us demanding compensation from JDT/Sweden

What time is the pre match presser meant to happen? If we hear nothing by then, then we will go into tomorrow in the disgraceful position, a head coach desperate to leave and the club holding on for dear life in fear of missing out on a few pound in compensation. I'm so happy we have billionaire owners

Be announced later most likely after they have shot the video of Eustace meeting the players then can be released straight away after the JDT announcement. Stop people talking about JDTs departure and the disgraceful events and woeful ownerships and talking about the new dawn under our new manager John Eustace

No

We didn't look anything like a relegation side pre December, even if you argue we didn't look like a promotion side which id agree with but I didnt expect we would be with the budget we had and the players that had left and even tho I rate some of our players higher than others a massive killer for the team has been a lack of experience which neither JDT or Broughton were allowed to add in the summer I don't think JDT is god and I disagree with plenty of things he has done but "his tactics" did work last season and up until the December,even falling away from the playoffs last season Kaminski should have been back in but in plenty of those games we created enough chances and had enough periods of domination in those matches to believe we were a bit unlucky and it was on our players more than JDT with some of the chances missed in critical moments in matches and with Var we would have made the playoffs I do think he should have looked to change things tactically until he had the players he wants but he was sold on a project that was a lie. Been treated disgracefully and he should have been let go in the summer when he asked to leave

Hodgson gave him a bit of praise too and seemed impressed by his overall performance

Be absolutely disgraceful if we go into this game with the JDT situation unresolved If there isn't an official announcement tomorrow over what is happening it will be an absolute joke

Before December we were 8th 2 points outside the playoffs. Last season we finished 7th. Now his tactics haven't been working the last 3 months but for the majority of his time here they were.

Did people at the club not know the reaction appointing Owen Coyle would have. People at the club wanted Warnock we ended up with Coyle. If an advisor is whispering in Venkys ears that Fowler can do the job at half the price of Eustace then it will be Fowler they go for.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if it is Fowler that gets it

Plus the new manager may not even want the player

You said it...doesn't mean it will happen. The club is a joke

We need a permanent manager in our position isn't one for Rookies Johnson is part of the existing team ,it will be someone from the existing coaching team initially but it shouldn't be . Also if he is on gardening leave you are still paying him his wage.Just pay him off, waive the compensation.Its ridiculous this carry on

Absolutely ridiculous.Just pay the man off or waive the compensation What are they going to do if an agreement isn't reached?Leave him in charge for Saturday? His position became untenable after his interview Saturday,here we are on Thursday a couple of days before an important match still haggling over money ffs

Johnson might take it on an interim basis but he has said on a number of occasions he doesn't want to be a senior manager/head coach

Wouldn't surprise me if Broughton is out the door and it's a new model Selling everyone of value and replace them on a league 2 budget(well to be fair that model has been in play the last year) Before turning to Broughton and play out from the back style , a manager had to have a promotion on his CV to get appointed here
