il be livid. imagine the scenes if we lose badly at Walsall. it would be a piss take of all the fans.
just like with lindsey it's easier to deal with if after a week or less then came out with confirmation that they wanted an internal appointment to continue the process
to take take 6 weeks, and then now 2 weeks and come to the same conclusion...fuck me.
we all know 100% that he wouldn't have been the best person to have applied. so whats the point in the interview process. to give us the sense that we a normal club? to the revert back to a shambles like the majority of the last 20 years

let's see what happens. As Rob says, the market it volatile with little money needed to move it
could so be based on the presser where it's gone from 'not for me' to 'let's see' (or whatever).
We better luck out if it happens and he actually be good. because a dud here and any faith remaining in this footballing setup will be done for me.

If we play as well as the last game in the next 3 and win them all 5-0 then I’d welcome Mr Gunning. If Saturday turns out to be an aberration, Mad Gav can do one! 😂

its a short term vision though. can gunning develop and enhance players? can gunning manage in league 1? we don't know the answer and some caretaker wins wouldn't answer those questions. of course he might but are there that many managers in world football that were promoted from assistant that last more than a season or two once the new bounce has gone?

Saw enough on Saturday to suggest Gunning could do a decent job. Extremely small sample size admittedly.
If the club left him in as caretaker for a few weeks to see how results go - I wouldn’t be against it.

to be fair there aren't many managers that last more than a year or two full stop. https://www.efl.com/news/managers-table/--- it's the riskiest path I can see to judge someone (not qualified to do the job) on a two or 3 game run. if course it's possible he could be our greatest ever manager that's not the point in trying to make

I’d say 99% of companies have at one time or another (probably as a matter of course) used ‘extras’ to justify their procedures whether internally or externally and end up appointing someone who was already ‘anointed’. In my last corporate employment I was asked on a number of occasions if I’d like to apply for certain rolls after I’d been there’s few years and established my credentials. No way was I going to be used to validate their cozy little club and graciously declined. I see no reason why STFC should be any different.

What I said was firmly tongue in cheek. I am not qualified to judge who would be the best short, medium or long term appointments

I kind of want it to happen to see your head explode There is absolutely no justification for appointing him.

While not keen on Gunning be appointed if that turns out to be the case (would rather have Artell) I’ll of course be getting behind him and the team regardless. Looking forward to Walsall one way or the other
