Being sacked from Shudds & Fev does not a successful coach make.

Agree, that was my interpretation too.

But who are these important/influential people who dont want Sharp appointing?
Players?
Sponsors?
It cant be the fans because we dont have any clout - we just pay up.
Oh hang on - if Duffy/Chalmers got a sniff that fans wouldnt be happy with Sharp they might worry it could impact on Season Ticket sales - how could they get around that - set a ST earlybird deadline before the coach is announced, and make out it might not be Sharp - Good idea - wait a minute - that's what they've just done.

For the record I'm on this side of the fence - I dont give a stuff about Sharp's history if he gets us promoted out of League 1 he gets my vote.

Well said.

I can't imagine that more than a tiny handful of fans (if any) are really going to be too fussed about exactly who the next coach is going to be. Yeah, for sure, with modern comms and a permanently open invitation to vent any perceived, or even imaginary, displeasure via the internet, I'm sure there is bound to be the odd dissenting voice. But come on, even on here where you'd expect some criticism, there is no great groundswell of opinion either way and it shouldn't matter a jot there were. Management are there to manage - just get on with it.

Maybe not if your pianistic (spell-checked it!!) repertoire only extends to "Chops' dicks".

Had no idea who she was until Googling her just now and realising that she was Spiderman's love interest in an ITV2 re-run watched with the teens tonight.

Hope that whoever is appointed as your coach achieves the primary objective of a Championship spot in 2019.
