It's miles from inconceivable that a short period of confusion wasn't inevitable to get the right result. It's like, 2 hrs now. What possible negative difference could chillaxing and seeing what happens tomorrow make? I certainly didn't expect transparency to mean we'll understand everything going on at the club in fine detail within two hours of a story breaking. I'm sorry, we'll have to agree to disagree. Anything big - anything - should not be released with a shitey website statement. It is cowardly and unprofessional. Especially when the grammar is poor and it's clearly been typed up in a hurry. We have all the resources, all we needed to do is have a rep stand in front of the cameras and tell the fans what was going on. THAT is professional THAT is treating the fans with respect THAT is not what has happened. RFCHTID, bornabear, tannerall and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be a knee-jerk reaction though. I'd rather we spent a couple of months getting in the right candidate than appointing the wrong one right away. Yup. A half decent hard to beat manager will steady the ship till May. In that time we need to go for the best available, heres the money you have to spend, heres extra if you sell XYZ and decide how you wanna play.

Hey ho - have a wee go - seems to be acceptable on here now - perhaps I should just make up shite and speculate like many on here. Holy shit my SNP friend, didn't think I would say it, but, I agree with you. Speculation and conjecture are not facts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bluepeter 5,627 Posted February 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2017 21 minutes ago, Badger said: Tbh.... I would expect this type of thing to happen frequently with agents. Warburton is under pressure, his agent wouldn't be doing his job if he wasn't keeping an ear to the ground on future employment. Ask the question, etc. Playing devils advocate, but could our board have pulled a fast one here? Looking for any excuse to get Warburton out on the cheap. The most convincing theory for me is that the agent (with or without permission of his clients) has gone into the board trying to strong-arm a position for them to leave without contractual compensation. This was fully in the belief that they had another job to walk in to. When that turned out not to be the case, he's gone back in with tail between his legs to recover the position, the board have checked the strength of their hand and told him to bolt. Whether Warburton and Co were party to the initial strong-arm tactic is up for debate. In fairness to Warburton, I don't think there will be anything unusual about this in the job market he is used to (there isn't in mine). You get an offer from a company, use that offer to either move or strengthen your position in the company you're in. My gut feeling is that the agent has fucked up and the management team are gone.

ElBufalo20 7,892 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 2 points with all the Nottingham Forest stuff. First off the Scottish journalists genuinely know fuck all. If he resigned on Wednesday then why wasn't this all over the news on the Thursday.Oh yeah cos they don't know anything. Also why the fuck would the manager of Rangers want to leave to become Notttingham Forest manager.

Bydo 3,215 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 If Warburton denies resigning, NFFC deny contact and this has all come as a surprise, then it's wholly possible that it's the board that are telling fibs. Someone somewhere is, and if it IS the board then they should be fucking hounded out- even if I did want MW gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That things were going on behind the scenes perhaps, and things had to move fast. It's simply impossible to evaluate how the Board have handled this just now. The panic people are subjecting themselves to on here won't determine that. We know what's going on as far as the Board is concerned. MW is leaving. theblueoysterbar 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
