If as we or certainly I suspect, that cash is as bountiful as hens teeth then I have a feeling that unless Hunt and the back room team leave he’ll be here until Christmas. If the shit is being flung in the general direction of Power who is stood in front of it then it makes sense to appoint a new manager and see what funds are available in the jan trans window. Court cases notwithstanding.
What you say makes a lot of sense from Powers point of view but not necessarily from a footballing aspect. If Wellens had stayed he would have been paying his salary (in his words the highest paid since he's been the owner) so you would have thought he could get someone in with experience without increasing his out goings. If he's uses Wellens Salary to keep the club afloat then you have to fear the worst with relegation on the cards as I don't see Hunt the person to take us forward and as with any court case/s they're bound to be complex and would probably carry into the new year

Funny you say that, Nixon tweeted this the other day when asked who he thought would be a fit for the job Club a bit short of funds. Needs someone who can work with that. Clough would have done. The guy Tommy Wright ex St Johnstone would be an interesting choice. Did miracles with no money. He also thinks Wright will go to Salford

Am I the only one who would be horrified by the Cowleys?
Nope, you are by no means alone. Horrific style of football like going back to the 1970s Div 4 again.

Relegation is not "fearing the worst". This season, it's going out of business altogether. That is "fearing the worst"

By relegation I meant dropping out of the league and folding which would be excelled with the current pandemic

I read his post meaning relagation would be the final nail in the financial coffin. Doubt we make it that long without a bailout mind. efit: never mind - he's clarified

Try and stop a sinking ship by getting in the best manager possible on Wellens budget. What would you do?

OK, that's not relegation, that's liquidation. Or did you mean if we get relegated that might cause us to fold?

I suspect that many on this forum acknowledge that the current speculation around the next manager involves an element of 'fantasy football' - particularly given what we think we know about the club's finances. However, if there is no speculation around this, I suspect that there won't be much activity on here over the next few days.
