You obviously weren't around for Yellowstepsgate.

Oh now you've done it! Talk about opening the flood gates!  ::)  :P

Will this site be able to cope once the news is out of our new head coach?

Personally, I still think we'll all end up disapointed! Not about the site about our new coach.  :)

And to think, people are now stressing about the delay on our managerial appointment, a good few weeks before they can actually do anything with the squad or new acquisitions anyway.

If this is a sign of expectations for the season, I am going to resign from the internet.

success breeds expectation i guess, we've over achieved the last 2 seasons with 11th and 10th place finishes

Dont agree JP I think we over achieved at all. Think we just got what we deserved for all the hard work and progress we have made particularly with developing the playing squad. But I grant you it took the appointment of a different class of coach to pull it all together. Dont see why we cant stay where we are were good enough quality wise with potential to get better

perhaps over achieved isn't the right word/term

last season it showed with a quality manager what we can with the team, a team that RDM had been struggling with.

Here you have a prime example of what a little rumour on the internet can do to bookies odds.

AVB should stick to trance. Football management is a bit different.

AVB still 33/1 on BetVictor if you're sharpish. Falling EVERYWHERE though. Presumably because of the backing from everyone on here!

Sticking to the facts we are still in talks with Rangnick who I guess is our first choice. If that falls through we will have a plan B. Our plan B is not AVB he would be plan A. If Rangnick falls through then it is much more likely to be Appy than AVB.

We will get relegated with Appy

Anyone else starting to feel we've let this drag on far too long, and as a result we may now suffer the consequences?

I'd love us to wrap up Rangnick now as he seems a very good manager. However, if that fails then we may be in real trouble.

With Lambert most likely going to Villa, that leaves Swansea AND Norwich looking for managers. These 2 teams are very close to us in size which means they can compete with us.
What if one gets Hughton, paying the £2 million...then who do we look for if Rangnick turns us down?

We're then left with the likes of Appleton and Holloway, which personally I think would be a disaster...and it's all down to stalling.

I pray to god Rangnick joins us, otherwise it looks like we're in trouble unless a random Rangnick character turns up from the blue!

History would suggest Norwich or Swansea are a million miles from us but i suppose its the Cheque book that counts at the and of the day
