I sincerely hope you didn’t engrave the trophy

Champions of the Algarve, you'll never sing that.

The one time I didn't want my spell checker to correct something. :facepalm:

Buckingham was left without any significant backroom staff for the first few months at Oxford. No Assistant Manager or Senior Analyst, Manning took everyone to Bristol City with him. I suspect that also had an impact on initial form.

Manning is said to be going to Norwich. Not in our division I know but would you be impressed if you were a Norwich fan? Although his Bristol City side finished above them last season.

Well, if they offered the job yesterday, based on the timescale of Bulut's appointment we could be waiting another 2 weeks. As others have pointed out, a few vacancies/opportunities out there for aspiring managers. I doubt he's going to have any influence on transfers anyway as Deboys and his team of analysts will be working hard on improving the squad in the meantime.

Well, if nothing happens in the rest of today and tomorrow, the club will have missed the target it set itself for appointing a new manager a few weeks ago. I would have hoped that they’d be working flat out to keep to the deadline - if they can’t, then I reckon something’s gone wrong.

Not going to be Selles according to the BBC - wants to stay in the championship.

Possibly, I thought today would be the day.

Or Tan's got the shortlist, and doesn't like it...

Here’s the article, seems there’s a split among the Board (for what that’s worth) - it reads as if a Murphy or Ramsey appointment would entail the sort of changes Tan has been advised to make by what seems the rest of the world, so does that mean a Buckingham appointment wouldn’t?

Was Selles even consdered or interviewed, is he rulling himself of a job he wasn't going to get?

The rest looks like it's been picked up from message boards, twatter and Wales online.

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread

I’d imagine the delay could be down to our preferred candidates holding out for something better - Buckingham is apparently wanted by Plymouth whilst the Bristol City job is likely to be available soon.

Seems to be more and more chat online that Ramsey will be getting it

Ah well, player contracts expire tomorrow, not like we need a manager to sort out who stays and goes, or who we'd like to target for a free transfer...

That will be a genuinely depressing outcome. None of the alleged candidates are especially inspiring, but Ramsey? Give me a ****ing break…

Shame, but he is good enough for the Championship. Hull are idiots for getting rid of him honestly. Maybe he goes to Wednesday?
