My memory might be playing a trick on me but I’m certain he’s not the 1st safc manager to have a 12 month rolling contract

Think it was Mick McCarthy after he got us promoted Bob Murray gave him a rolling contract. Just means it’s an indefinite contract but when the time comes to sack him he’s due 12 months salary as a pay off. The way we get through managers probably makes more sense than giving him a 2 or 3 year deal.

Look man football fans are fickle as fuck it's all about winning. Nee one cares if your club is run by morons or by terrorists just look at the mags.

2 or 3'wins in a row and speakman will be a god and KLD the best owner ever that's what football fans are like always have been always will be

When did he sign? Club has said details were finalised this evening, is there any evidence they weren’t, you seem to think that there wasn’t sufficient trust between the two parties for him to start work before all the i’s were dotted and the t’s crossed

Seem to remember Keane took at least 2 days to sign his SAFC contract after we all knew he’d got job

Don't know about Speakman, everyone's seen through him now.

Wrong. Not for the first time. People should care if your club is run by terrorists.

Correct about fans being fickle in nature though. I will forget about being angry about keane if Neil does well. Hold nothing against him and wish him the best of luck, obviously.

Will hold Speakman and KLD to account further down the line. They have displayed worrying behaviour.
 
Well he's got his work cut out, hardly any defenders, a midfield full of midgets, no proper back up to our only striker, about 10 wingers and a couple of dodgy goalkeepers. Best of luck, he's going to need it.

I think what's happened is he's left his agent completing the deal/legalities and AN must have wanted to get straight down to business. It's the only thing that makes sense.

Been trying to say that but many appear unable to get there heads around that way of going about things

On plus side it shows a lot of trust exists between niel and club
 
How f***ing small time do we look??? A rolling 12 month contract…. What a load of bollocks that is…. Stinks of Madrox all over that…. Give the bloke 2-3 years to build summit
