Grammatical ability is no measure of IQ but I can see why this would appeal to your rather superior nature.

Only because people realise it takes two sides to negotiate a contract/deal, Northampton happened because ACL/CCC and SISU/CCFC couldn't or didn't want to agree a deal. Apportioning some of the blame to one of the major players in failed negotiations whether rightly or wrongly is understandable.
If Mowbray doesn't sign it will be because Mowbray and SISU can't agree a deal, nothing to do with CCC/ACL/Wasps.
So yes, I can confirm your post was bullshit.

No news is good news in a way. If they were miles apart with no chance of agreeing we'd have heard by now so the fact they're still talking is a positive.
Remember we all thought SISU had blown it as it took a long time to agree the initial contract.
That said how long can it really take. Would have thought we'd hear something by the end of next week.

I agree. If TM doesn't sign it won't have anything to do with CCC/ACL/Wasps. Some on here will try and work an angle where they can apportion blame to other parties. Let's hope they don't get an opportunity to though.

The CCC / ACL / Wasps side of things is all financial. Mowbray has said he is not asking Sepalla for more money so I can't really see how it will be down to anyone but SISU if he doesn't return. He seems to be more concerned with being able to structure the club in the way he feels is best, that's nothing to do with anyone but the football club.

Not sure when this interview was held but it was put on covcitymad a few minutes ago. Worrying about the 'clubs will no doubt have him on their radar'. It's blatantly true but I've not heard Waggott mention this previously

I was thinking the same Tony. Fearing the worst but would gladly be proved wrong.
Me too as intimated on another thread.

Don't think it will happen myself. Settled in the North-east and a heavy slog up and down the country. It would be a coupe if we landed him but there are plenty more people around.

Pistols it is then, as befitting a gentleman. I've never managed a good grasp on 'who's boss'! - maybe I'm just a prol with attitude.

Not in my nature... and I'm tired. But I'll be here in the coming weeks if you'd like to discuss your inadequacies. I have known many small men who pretend to be big men. I'll be gentle.

Then why say it likes it some childish playground threat? Tired, obviously no staying power. But fear not Samo, although I don't come on here so much anymore, I'll still drop in if you fancy a chat from time to time. Oh and by the way, I was always told that you watch out for the small men, you never see them coming.

Posted this the other day,, TM holds all the cards and more already SW is laying the ground work for potentially negative news.. Big difference now is TM will not be tied into discloses, he is not being paid or under contract, so will be honest and frank in regards to the outcome.. I do believe that he wants SW out of the way in regards to potential signings,, i also think TM will have other offers to consider... The above article doesn't sound great, but until TM talks or makes his decision all is guess work.. The longer it goes on is a worry with this situation though,,lots should of been known and decided before the season ended...

I didn't read it in a negative way. The negotiations have started. They have a lot to talk about because of the state of our club. TM doesn't want to sign if he can't change things. A football manager is only as good as his last job. One bad time at a club can send their career downhill. Look at some on here saying TM is not a decent manager because Celtic never won everything. But SISU have made our club self sufficient so will want to be careful what they offer him. So how are they supposed to give a day to announce when negotiations will be over?
TM going to another club? He isn't under contract so why would he waste his time and money being in London talking to Joy?

Well you always listen to what you can get then it gives you a better bargaining tool knowing that if all else fails you can go back to the original offer

There is no doubt Tony Mowbray wants the managers job here, no doubt at all, but i do believe there is a problem as put to me a fly in the ointment. Now if true, who could that be and why. ?
