Thanks luckyluke699

No problem.

Standing and Clem also had (and presumably may still have) injunctions, stopping Power selling the club. So that's another thing Power will want resolved as part of any outcome:

Paul Cook's not going to happen. Been laughed out by Nixon. Something along the lines of how on earth could we afford him when we couldn't afford to try and keep RW.

Somebody mentioned John McGreal (might have been dphunt88). Not a bad shout.

Other names to throw in: Luke Garrard, Ben Strevens, Dino Maamria.

The injunctions prevent certain steps being taken before the matter can be heard at trial.  They will be disposed of when the court makes their decision.

If any of those 3 even got an interview I’d laugh my nuts off. Talk about scraping the barrel.

I think you may be in for a shock. Two up-and-coming National League managers, I'd be happy with either Strevens or Garrard. Maamria would be bad at first glance, for sure.

Agree. No established manager would want to contend with:
• Clear team weaknesses
• No money for improvement
• Club ownership disputes etc

Short term contract on offer for a good up and coming manager to consolidate for this season, with a longer term offer a possibility if they do well. We just have to hope that a change steadies the ship.

the talk of 'ownership case'

As I understand it, the one in a few weeks decides whether power owes Clem shares, £1M back or nothing at all.

When is the Stanford/Barry case? is there one?

This month I believe.
Perfect timing regarding new direction.

What about Graham Alexander preciously of Salford.
His record doesn’t look that bad.

He has a very decent record on paper.

Ah well he'll soon be forgotten and on the managerial scrap heap in a few years as he hasn't come out of this at all well, big questions have to be asked about his integrity.

Anyone on to the next then....

Better than Wellens  Wink, albeit I seem to recall it was his style that got him the chop at Salford.

Garrard is especially well respected and seen as one for the future, was strongly linked to the Barrow job and obviously does have the historical link to us.

It's all gone back to being rather depressing again.  Wellens got me back to enjoying STFC again after a long period of Meh..  Fucking Swindon Town Groundhog day...

A fortnight is a long time in football. I rather got the impression over the last couple of weeks that he had disappeared up his own arse somewhat!

I think it has been longer than that, he seems to have spent all season moaning trying to almost make out that his position was untenable. If he had been behaving in a similar manner with the players it's no wonder we are struggling, he's blatantly been engineering this exit for a long time.
