How long does it take to negotiate with a lower half premiership team for one of their coaches ? He wants to come you agree a fee, or you cant agree a fee they wont let him leave, move onto next target. You wonder if the assistant manager is dependant on Morris, if he don't come then Morris done come, otherwise why not announce Morris and confirm negotiators are taking place to appoint his assistant ? I also understand not disrupting the team before the game, but mostly whoever has been caretaker will pick the team when the appointment is late on, with the new manager watching from the stands or the dugout, ready to take the next training session. Or maybe he cant start until the 1st if the month due to payroll cut off date for wages to paid

Yeah I'm thinking this. Plus don't forget to keep an eye out in the hospitality areas for potential future managers at the Gills game. Monday and Tuesday next week I sense are going to be busy as hell!

No reason you can't appoint a manager close a game, doesn't mean they are necessarily in charge for that game. I personally don't buy the it'll disturb the team argument- if anything it should galvanise them to showcase their talent.

Plenty of other teams manage to do it, how many times do you hear 'x has taken over as manager but is watching from the Directors Box today and didn't pick the team'.

Remember Tony Adams being announced as Wycombe manager and getting the credit for them thrashing us 4-0 (…or 4-1?) in the Cup even though he did nothing but watch and Gentleman John was in charge. Iirc we were flying in L1 at the time (and continued to do so for the rest of that season) Wycombe might have even gone down in the end. Memory is hazy http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/3233113.stmSuggests it was his actual first game in charge. They also finished rock bottom that season. He took over 3 days before it would seem

Swings and roundabouts isn't it? If it is Jody Morris and whoever the assistant is, I can definitely see the benefit in announcing it Saturday morning, bring them onto the pitch before the game etc and really feed the positive vibes of the fans. My niggling concern is that Jody Morris is a 'relatively' big name in football terms and yet the only actual reports of him being in line for the job has been on whatever website Ryan Whelan gives information to and the Adver and the Derby telegraph. (which is just a lift and shift job) You would have thought it might have been worth column inches in some of the national press, and from what I have (or haven't) seen is any reporting at all about him? Not even Sky Sports News that usually have a 'breaking news' ticker if an ex-premier league player does anything even remotely interesting. Perhaps I'm being totally naieve/conspiratorial here.
