sacré bleu Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Must be more to it than just looking for a new manager. Even Mr. Chansiri wouldn't take that long. Maybe his time in America wasn't just holidaying. Do Disney do football clubs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Disney own Portsmouth, they are a Mickey Mouse club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC has probably thought he can’t spend to get into the Prem, all he’s doing is ploughing money into the club to tread water in mid table. What’s the point, I’d rather go to Disney World. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacré bleu Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 In all seriousness I do wonder if he has perhaps accepted an offer and is just keeping the house looking presentable without spending too much whilst the new owners finalise the "mortgage". Wouldn't the new owners would want to refurbish anyway to put their own stamp on it so no point in making any changes now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarn owl Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Sorry i know we lost on Saturday but still don’t get the panic. We have had a good start to the season overall and with a win on Saturday we’ll be in the playoffs and will have had a 100% start at home. What more would Gary Rowett do? Also all the people saying ‘just hire someone from Europe’. Maybe with no rush needed he doesn’t need to make a rash decision. Managers lose games. It’s about how they learn and react. Bullen needs more time unless there is a stand out candidate, which there isn’t. Stick with Bullen a bit longer I still say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls-Fan Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I may have missed it but was anything said by the club about why there isn’t a shirt sponsor? Seems strange that a club with financial issues wouldn’t have some revenue coming in. New owners will put their own company on the shirt.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was only for the first two games we weren't displaying the logos. This probably had more to do with the kit supplier than anything else I reckon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we rest slightly easier knowing every effort has been done to ensure we finish as high as possible, and getting a manager who knows the league/has the relevant experience with a full entourage of backroom staff is a must imo.

Buxtongent Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) We are all forgetting the major factor - whoever the Manager of DC's choice, that manager MUST WANT TO TAKE THE JOB. Looking at our recent past, we have a club that is in a state of flux, no matter what we may think. It has recently FAILED to gain promotion at the final hurdle, not once but twice! It has made some buys which have not worked, the Rhodes buy being a case in point - and its no good us putting ALL the blame on either the Owner or the Manager. Many of the buys have , on paper, been good buys, At the time he was bought, we were crying out for a goalscorer. At the time, who better than either Rhodes or Winnall. Many of us at the time thought this OK. They didn't work and a new Manager will be left with them. It has been dancing with the threat of 'fair play' and sanctions, alongside an EFL embargo It has a fan-base which, while being very verbose on the net, seems very divided.. We have recently lost our Manager to Newcastle, suddenly and for no apparent reason. Does this make us an inviting prospect? Were I myself to be invited to accept this position, I would have to think very, very carefully, then, after working out the pros and cons, say NO, there are better jobs available. Getting someone to take the job could be relatively easy. Getting the RIGHT man will be much harder. And if you don't believe me - just look at the number of 'candidates' we have on this website alone.

Buxtongent Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 As an addition to my previous post - I forgot to add the current farcical situation we have got with SAS, SYP and all, which is certainly not improving the matter.It may not be his business, but a Football Manager/DoF will have this on his mind.

My understanding is match day shirt sponsorship is currently available on a match by match basis with CHANSIRI/ELEV8 being the default if it's not taken up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
