I reckon announced tomorrow after the match and he’ll be there in the stands but with him to start as manager from Monday.

Have we ever announced manager on the same day as a game ever before?

Not saying we won't and I would be for it, just would be unusual and one hell of a day if we win too.
 
Sunday announcement would make sense. The players will be off on Sunday to recover anyway I'd imagine, what with the game on Tuesday. So if they can't announce him now for whatever reason he wouldn't have a chance to work with them until Monday anyway. Get whatever they need to get sorted tomorrow, he keeps the media gig he's signed up to at the weekend, announced Sunday afternoon, start work Monday

Can’t think off the top of my head but would make for a cracking day with the big crowd and Defoe hysteria.
