DeeJayOne Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Owls may bizarrely bring in Bruce’s backroom team of Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence first. They would be followed by the new manager after he takes a scheduled holiday break. Bruce has been affected by the loss of both parents and wanted to spend Christmas and New Year with his family.

If he was in the middle of behind the scenes negotiations with Bruce, he was never going to tell the fans forum that Luhukay was on his way out, was he? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple O Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Numerous times a chairman has said they fully back the manager and sack them next day. Sort of means we are normal really. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMBELOWS91 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Actually, if this is true, I don't think it's that strange at all. First thing- if DC wants Bruce then hes handling the situation superbly in letting him have the time he feels he needs. Bringing in a competent backroom team with a fresh pair of eyes (or two( is way better than just leaving it to Bullen and Nicky Weaver. Secondly, the supposed sale. We're no more for sale now than we were before the forum. You don't just decide to sell up during a fans forum when you've invested £100m. Even DC is not that unconventional. If this is true it's way above my expectations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Yorks Owl Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Perhaps DC realised that it’s not just about whether he’s willing to back Jos? After the forum he would obviously have realised the lack of faith in Jos from supporters and perhaps he received similar feedback from some of the players? I guess there comes a point as an owner where you realise a change is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
