Wray suggesting new manager will have 100% responsibility for footballing matters including who of the 12 gets offered new deals. Sounds promising.

In by mid-May too.

Indeed. If they were aware that some fans were concerned with Fitton's involvement in footballing matters he seems to address it directly:

I am a great believer that the football decisions will be made by the manager

Ultimately I want a manager who is his own man and I will leave the decision down to him

He is certainly saying all the right things at the start of his chairmanship.

Speaking with Ralph yesterday his dad mentioned Phill Parkinson as manager. I think that would be a quality choice. Not sure if his name has been mentioned before?

music to my ears. give the manager a budget and if he fucks up then only he is to blame.the chairmans input this season has not helped.
 glad that kills off the director of football rumours too which i never thought would happen anyway.
clearly lessons have been learned, and now the most important managerial appointment for years needs to be made.
good luck with that jeremy.

Forgot about Parkinson, I'd be well happy with him - Charlton were 3rd when they sacked him. (13th, to save you looking it up)

yes he was very unfairly treated at Charlton and i think he'd do a brilliant job here. Maybe we should drop nick a message just to remind him he's out there

National media are saying its Wally Downes' job to turn down if he wants it.

Wouldnt want Parkinson, Charlton overspent and he's put them another step backwards as a club. Plus he's a Reading man.

Good to hear the manager will get say over contracts. We need to buy players who are needed in the first team. There has still been no interview from Wilson since he left, Im interested what he thought of the transfer policy. You have to wonder if he is not allowed to give an interview until the end of the season?

Sounds promising. Let's hope he delivers though. We can't be waiting 6 weeks again. At least he realises that.

[Ralphy]

I'd certainly be more happy with Parkinson than Trollope or Richard Money.

Treated unfairly by Charlton. Where has sacking him got them ?

They were going downhill rapidly before he left.

They have also made a terrible appointment. Sorry to say that Bodin would probably work out the same for us.

And he plays lump ball. I think Wray said he wanted someone that played decent football. Rules Parkinson out.

...and they even lost to us!

Not keen on Wally Downes. He's not had many jobs and hasn't done great in the ones he's had.
