Shortlist down to 3 by Monday then. I'm going to stop speculating now. Can't be bothered to at the end of the day it's going to be whoever it is. Does sound like we might not see an appointment for another week or so yet though.
I quite enjoy listening to and reading about all the speculation....God bless Fitton for kindly asking MM to leave as it's more interesting talking about who our next manager may or may not be, rather than giving 101 reasons why MM wasn't up to it.....
its in Fitton's interest to get the right man for the job as a welcome appointment from a fans point of view will get more numbers through the turnstiles.....
say the right appointment brings an increase of around 1,000 fans(which would be realistic I reckon) and average ticket price works out at £15, correct me if I'm wrong but thats a £15k increase a fortnight on gate receipts alone. So based on those stats, we can afford to pay our new manager around £350k a year right?? (assuming we pay them in the summer months of course) that would get us a fairly decent manager wouldn't it?? or is that too simple an equation and I'm missing something here??!
even if the new appointment only put 500 on the average gate, that would equate to approx £175k a year and for a manager in League 1, that aint to be sniffed at shirley??
bollox, get someone in who will double our gates generating an extra £2mill a year which would pay for em to be here!
