It will be him walking Herthab.
The team has no balance, and he knows it. Plus the possibility of the -10. He wont want a relegation on his record.

We need 3 players.
A creative midfielder and two strikers.
That's all, imho, we lack at the moment.
This is Sturrocks team, he's picked the new players and they know what he wants.
Whilst it was disappointing yesterday, I firmly believe we'll see a much better performance at Northampton.
Sturrock has achieved promotions by building solid teams that are hard to beat and this is what he's doing here.
Get the wingers performing, add a cutting edge and we'll do ok.
I like to see Comminges as a winger, he's got pace, skill and can cross!

Herthab, I can see that way of thinking. The team is far better than they have shown over pre season.
But I think what Reg might be getting at is the possibility of these football agents comming in. They arent going to be saying, 'Mr Sturrock, please look at these players and pick the ones you like', it will be we need these players in the team so we can sell them.

If that becomes reality I too can see Sturrock walking. But at the moment (And no disrespect to Reg) I'm taking all these rumours with an extremely big bag of salt I don't know what's gonna happen down the line and refuse to treat these rumours as fact.

If we get the 10 point deduction, Sturrock will be gone in a flash. And even if we don't, the only thing that would keep him here now is if our still 'mystery investor' really does produce £5m+ worth of investment. (And I say that because he will not want to tarnish his record with us, simply to play ball with the opaque business dealings of Diamandis.) I won't hold my breath.
Sturrock took us up and would have wanted to maintain the momentum in to this season. That momentum has run in to a brick wall. By now we should have made several signings that demonstrate we mean business next year...and we haven't. We have been signing squad players.

Is this an educated guess or pure speculation? I have my reasons for this conclusion. Two things Reg: 1) Where's your knowing wink? 2) Are your sauces the same as the ones who told you for a fact that Big Ron and Carlton Palmer would be taking over within weeks when that documentary was being made?

There's a subtle difference between substantiated speculation and a wind up. Why do you think Iffy fired Big Ron out?

It'll cost the club to get rid of him, due to the 18 month lock in.
It wont cost the club or Sturrock a penny if either side is in breach of contract. What if.................. Contract states that Sturrock has sole governance over the playing side of the club All of a sudden...................... "Ah Paul...........please meet the new owners......................we need you to sign these four geezers on 2 year deals Oh and by the way ..................... can you make sure they all start on Saturday !!!! Fuck that for a game of soldiers

Which means that this Sturrock story.....Oh well, hook line and sinker and all that
