I think most sensible fans feel the frustration but also see the financial predicament there is in sacking a coach with a contract, thankfully this one has a set term .Rumours are just that ,rumours. They may will turn into facts .It’s pretty clear to me that the best course of action would be to announce his leaving at the end of the season. install a caretaker on a trial basis who may take it without a pay rise ? Then upgrade him/her when the Dean contract ends? As some like Dean,it’s fair to let him go gardening with a thank you and no hard feelings
