It could be the person is on holiday with his family and is " do not disturb " , just saying

You mean like Aaron Ramsey?

He'd fit right in.

Nathan Jones odds are shortening. In to 8-1 from 33-1.

Nathan Jones will be odds on by the end of the day.

I think Buckingham is who they have as back up but are speaking to nathan jones as the number 1. We may lose Buckingham to Plymouth though but worth the wait for jones.

Logically nathan jones won't and shouldn't take it. But he's just about mad enough to.

Could end up with neither their "no 1 target " or their backup.

So, we’re going for a guy who was out of work and had spoken of his desire to manage us at the time we appointed Bulut? Also, with the club talking of their desire to integrate Academy graduates into the first team, does Nathan Jones have any history of promoting youth into the senior side? Maybe he has done at Charlton, but I’m not aware of him having done so at Luton.

I’m not against Nathan Jones coming here (there’s been times when he’s been my number one choice for the job), but we don’t half make things tough for ourself!

Just sounds like BS to me.

I'd doubt Nathan Jones would have applied while involved in a promotion play off, and now Charlton are up, why would he drop down a league ? True, he's a City fan and obviously has an affinity to the area but he knows that it a couple of years he could be living in Huddersfield. I doubt it's Ramsey either. My guess is it's someone a bit more high profile who wants his own team around him.

Edit : Just been reading previous comments from Nathan Jones which confirms he would love to manage his home town club, so maybe it's down to sorting contractual and coaching staff arrangements.

Money talks.

It's a big if. But if we really want Nathan Jones we'd probably get him. It would probably cost a lot of money now though.

Re: New manager speculation / rumours thread

Paul Abbandonato reckons we'll be happy with our number 1 target. (Has he met some of us?). That kind of thing can be patronising, like when we were told we'd love Gareth Stoker. Oh my, it's gonna be Gareth Stoker.

Abbandonato said the fans would love the new approach of buluts 2nd season! I challenged him on that after bulut had gone and he said he was assured by the club the 2nd season would be positive and attacking but he didn't deliver so they sacked him.

He's such a club mouthpiece
