Genuinely makes me laugh thinking about whoever thought that was a good idea.

First half time ad on scoreboard was for betting. They can fuck off with the integrity bullshit while promoting this shit tbh.

It's the integrity bit man. Aye we'll play the game fair and square whilst around us don't. Replacement coaches should have been sounded out long before Johnson was sacked. Pathetic

Aye, he's used integrity a few times now. If Johnson was on the ropes, it should have been lined up. Instead, we've completely blown any hope of automatics.
 
Worried me when I listened to Speakman on Thursday and he said the new manager has to get on with the current staff you’d expect the new manager to bring in his own people, every time I hear him speak Keane is the last person I think he wants to appoint.

You could argue it will go one way or another but after the last two performances I’m not sure there’s too much to lose. I am massively in the pro Keane camp anyway because of his standards and the hope he will inspire. Bit what do people really think Grant McCann can do with this lot?

I want Keane tbf. It will be a race off the bridge if McCann gets it. Squad is full of spineless little spenks though who Johnson had to molly coddle.

They will fold with Keane giving them home truths.

See if we have the right staff in place the coaches job should be easy to go in to. I've no problem with that, it encourages stability (to a point)

Well it's quite f***ing obvious they don't get on as they look like strangers on the pitch a lot of thevtime is Speakman scared of a tough personality

If Keane wants the job and we have offered him it he isn't going to turn it down because we lost a game

Maybe not on one game no, but (over and above the reservations I said I had last night, which are not the reason I’m saying this) Keane clearly said last night the situation had to be right for him, he might not think the overall situation is right for him.

KLD needs to decide what’s more important (assuming he’s actually in charge) - Speakman or promotion because we won’t have one with the other.

How on earth any manager with an ounce of self respect would accept “getting on” with the absolute divvys that put that team out today is beyond me. I wouldn’t want anyone that would agree to that. It’s utter f***ing nonsense.

In any other high profile and/or professional organisation the directors would have an unofficial short list of candidates in the event of a crucial staff member leaving.

That can still be achieved with a degree of integrity.

Reading between the lines, and I'm definitely not itk, they have fired Johnson seemingly without a candidate in mind.

If that is the case then, particuarly at this stage of the season and our league position, that's pretty piss poor on a few levels.
 
I honestly see Keane looking at Speakman and thinking “I can’t work with that prick. He’s everything that’s wrong with modern football”

Blokes a walking thesaurus

He said in his last interview they were already looking at candidates “just in case as any business does” now they are “drawing up their shortlist”

Shambles

Absolutely. Its twist or bust - no middle ground - if we want to save the season.

Agreed. It's absolutely nonsensical
