10 days from PdC leaving till KMac was announced.
Which relatively speaking was quite prompt compared to eternity it took to get Wilson....125 pages of classic TEF bollocks...the new manager thread can only dream of matching such heights |

It was indeed, checking back it was 42 days from the sacking of MM until DW was appointed. Previously the time between Luggy leaving and MM joining was 41 days so fairly comparable also. 10 days was very quick, maybe a little too rushed even? |

Unless they have had someone lined up for a while and are just waiting an appropriate amount of time before unveiling him/her

I posted this in the manager thread, prehaps it might be more suitable here, to do with the board. I first said 'Oh, No markets for it in Stan James' or something similar... Just asked our traders.. interesting..
Jordan Crisp {Devizes 318}: Afternoon all, is there any betting on the next Swindon Town manager? Can't see any in the system on closed & live
***** (7020): we are not getting involved in this market
***** (7020): some sort of board member with stan james or Swindon has a connection with the club so we cant bet on it
Anybody have any idea? |

There was a bit of controversy at the time about length of contract...insofar as most people thought it would be tilthe end of season, but 2.5 years was stated....until a bit later when KMac himself seemed to put that in doubt. It would be highly unusual for a manager to walk away from 2 years of wonga, with nothing else in place...also given our finanaces paying up 2 years then appointing someone on similar seems a bit strange. Maybe he never had the longer contract. |

I would imagine it has something to do with Lee Powers involvement with Racing Plus who is an affiliate of Stan James. |

I had forgotten that there was some doubt thrown up at the end of last season over the length of KMacs contract, could be that he was on some kind of rolling contract renewed each season or something like that. |

You can't just post facts like that on the public domain, you must PM people and post that you have PM'd to extend the mystery and pretend that you are member of a secret society of knowledge. How do you expect to develop your online persona otherwise? Others have done it on here and it has done their reputation no harm at all. Sort it out JJ, I thought you knew better!  |
