Thanks for the hint. Looking forwards to tomorrow now and finding out who the photo bomber is.

There will be another started as soon as he is appointed regarding his lack of experience and moaning he hasn't signed anyone an hour after being announced

I never saw Nixon say that, not sure where Vegas had seen it.

No announcement today is surprising though.

it was on a thread he started, someone asked him the question - it wasn't the initial tweet. You should know by now I don't make stuff up for the sake of it !!

Simon Davies is joining Spurs backroom staff. He was due to come in with VK.

Simon Davies who was expected to be coming into Burnley alongside Kompany has just gone to Tottenham (Chris Boden).

Makes sense doesn’t it. And falls in line with CT’s comment before on there being multiple appointments.

Yes, I believe there is a chance of it being tomorrow.

Tony, some people just can't take subtle hints, it has to be put
in plain and simple English and even then 50% will continue to ask.

How about people stop hinting and say what they actually mean instead of leaving posts that keep people guessing by interpreting it multiple ways. It just adds to the frustration.

Can't believe we're now into another week and still don't technically have a manager.

clive40golf · Post by **clive40golf** » Mon Jun 13, 2022 3:46 pm

Just had a quick chat with my friend. It was meant to be announced today, but for some reason it has been delayed. It will be announced tomorrow, with CB as assistant. There has been a delay but the official stance is “work permits”.
Apparently big meeting on Sunday to discuss future of staff/players/recruiting/transfer budget ect

You'd think all that would have been sorted beforehand.

I hope you mean a week last Sunday. I’d be very worried if we only started discussing these things yesterday!!

That’s what I asked! He’s been around BFC for a few days ( sorry friend, I can’t say too much, but my source is very very reliable) maybe I misheard him and the meeting was yesterday, but I don’t think I did. I asked about Transfers, but he didn’t say much. I also asked about statements from the club, he just replied “it is, what it is”

Don't really understand some of your post but the entourage being reported surprised me.

Two childhood friends as assistants, one of which seemed to do very little at Anderlecht.

Wasn't someone like the kit man , aka fat bloke on the bench, employed by Coyle actually his brother in law or something like that?

ClaretPete001 · Post by **ClaretPete001** » Mon Jun 13, 2022 4:30 pm

I've got a friend at the club and I asked him "how are we looking for next Sunday?"

And he said "tee off time available at 9:30"

"And Kompany" I said?

"Well the lady Captain is free!" - he said

"This is an unlikely conversation" I said - "I'll have to rush off and post it on the UTC forum".

"You do that says he " but before you go do you want to hear my Pigeon in distress with head caught in a bike spoke impersonation".

"Oh go on" then" says I

"KA KA KA KA KA KA KA KA KA - silence"

"Marvellous" I said.

Its probably Alan Pace - wouldn't surprise me if he has been either back in the US following end of season or away on business. Can't think of anyone else who would warrant waiting for them to be available for the announcement

So many rugs pulled from under us over the last few years that everyone is going to be sceptical until it’s officially announced.

The fan base is in dire dire need of some positive news.
