    Sounds as though no signed contract.

    So consequences must be known.

    Listened to an interview on radio hullberside today with him, I couldn’t believe what he was saying about being told by mr Cox at the start of this season that there was no chance of a new contract and he should find a new club.

    How can you get players motivated with them knowing that they will be leaving the club no matter what they do or perform, think more will come out slowly and maybe Mr Cox was not the nice guy we all thought.

    Cox did little for those he wanted out.

    Rory always had the talent just no managerial support. So good for him.

    In just over a week the manager will have been in charge for 3 games. 2 of these have been used to look at the players available.

    442 for me and I would have Wilson as the Right Wing Back. Could Thompson and O’Malley be the left side FB and WB ? Up top Loft and Scrimshaw. Pugh and Beestin in centre mid. Back 4 as said.

    Hakeeb not going well at Lincoln,I am not sure the move to Bristol was the correct one

    It wasn’t, but his agent drove the deal. He made the money, think it was a 3yr deal, but certainly badly advised if he wanted to go higher. Bit like Josh Wright head turned by other things and career went backwards. Great shame.

    Gave an interview to Matt Dean yesterday and it was on Radio Humberside – 15 mins. Compared to the previous manager very uplifting.

    There is going to be an item on Look North today [ the 12th ].

    Would be interesting if Mr Lillis gave his view on his time back at GP.

    People may then get an real insight. It may surprise.

    Matt is OK, been his granddad’s funeral today but his dad isn’t feeling very well either so that is the reason no Predictions last night, but will be putting Saturdays on tomorrow and then will update the previous results which have been missed.

    But family has to come first.

    Top lad is our Matt. Has to be an issue for him if something is amiss.

    We are lucky, best to him and his family.

    The reason why I hope to see more academy lads come through is because it boosts the aspirations of the others.

    Plus it helps attract better U16’s going forward.

    Possibly tied up with the funeral Sanfran.

    Could be. Was his grandad I believe.

    Hill will give them all a chance. The concern for me was reading how many of Doncasters players came from their academy in last nights game. The young line-up went 3 up against an older squad of Scunthorpe !

    Want to see a RB actually as a right back, could not understand why Mr Cox saw Jai Rowe as a CB, but there again he had signed Millen so Millen would start if fit no matter previous failings.

    Cox’s choice wasn’t he, rather than an agents or board proposal?

    Yes as was KDT.

    The is only one person responsible for the demise in the gates – Mr Peter Swann.

    It isn’t going to move by much until HE owns the reasons why and the ego will not allow it.

    Whoever the manager looks at will be an investment. Therefore priority will be fitness and injury record, you know what we are like for recruiting ones with limps !!

    In Peter Swanns last Humberside interview he did say we were still under our budget which means we can recruit. Not sure if we are allowed to pay a fee for though.

    Also stated if it takes the loan to be be repaid next year then it will be !!

    Until, either it does or does not happen we will have to wait.

    See Bunn wasn’t involved for long again. Think him and Hallam need to go.

    Bunn out of contract in 2022. But Jordan Hallam got a 2 yr deal !! And we wonder where money is wasted.

    I do believe it is McMahon and Muzzy today, as they have been taking training all week.

    On this occasion the right thing to do. Best wishes to them. Certainly looks a team with more pace at the back.

    Can see why Keith Hill appointed, 1 of 3 for me but do not know if the other 2 applied.

    The Hurst demise – was it not based on the brief given not being adhered to despite further instruction from above ? Suspect something I had heard brought the matter to a swift termination.

    We were producing players but Mr Cox seemed very reluctant in aiding their development, strange seeing that was his route !!

    Look at Jai Rowe. Arrives here as a right sided back/wingback. Doing well and was improving every game then Cox said he is s CB and that was it for him. Bench or worse. O’Malley – Cox signing in Mason out !!

    Wilson also disappeared and for match fitness was back in the U18s !! Big clubs are looking for young talent. No sympathy brought it all on himself.

    I think it was Mike White, he said had he been in contact with Nigel Adkins, offering him the job. Peter Swann said no as it would be unfair on those who have applied, now if he applied that would be different.

    We will have to wait. Could possibly appoint by saturday then the new person could watch the doncaster game. Has 31 games whoever it is.

    Do we go experienced if so why are they unemployed ? Do we go for a No.2 looking for their 1st No. 1 job ? Or do we look at someone from non-league who wants to make a name as they rise up the leagues ?
    A conundrum that is of the chairmans making.

    Who do I think could do it Michael Flynn – always thought good for us, Andy Crosby – disciplined and an organiser and knows what this club is about, Cliff Byrne – wants to win every game and again claret & blue, many of the other names not for me as most have had several failures so why would it work this time.

    One thing we did find out is that we are still within our playing budget and funds are there. Until January it would be free agents. But in Mr Swanns interview on humberside tonight it is still my fault because I am staying away.

    Certainly I feel very sorry for Mark Lillis, he was not as involved as many think and I understand it was not his choice !

    We will see what happens, certainly november will a big month.

    Rhetorical question WG – our ex-manager didn’t find him.

    I would give him a chance as well, unlike Scrimshaw he is not a ‘willing runner’ ! He was playing 1st yr academy a season in front. He is tough, pacy, can take players on and got a hell of a shot.

    He will score goals, Dan Gallimore needs chances from the bench to build the experience part. Understands what is needed and tough lad.

    EFL loan has to go first otherwise – we have zero chance with it outstanding.

    How do we get out of this mess ?

    Unless the EFL get the loan back we seem to have little movement available regards to bringing new players in who can change the situation but not with our present management.

    Several players need paying off, the loanees need to go back and what budget is left needs using but not by the recruitment think tank that has finally delivered what is there now – says it all when people remark that our players can’t pass a ball correctly !!

    So how serious is it – well we have all november & december to go before we can approach a club or we have to see what free agents are available.

    As I say we need someone who knows what we want as opposed to a manager and chief scout who are on the same page !!

    Mr Swann had an ego to prove everyone wrong !

    Now it is proving everyone right.

    What a shame Peter, and you called others amateurs.

    Cameron Wilson is fit. But we don’t seem to play down to the goalline – look at how many corners we create !! It is shocking, Cam would do a a great job taking defenders on out wide and he can quickly cut back and hit very accurate shots in at the keeper.

    So that could be the problem !

    The only time he stops messing it up is when the criticisms grow.

    He doesn’t like that, do I expect his favourites to have more of a chance than some others – a resounding YES.
