PATRIQT That’s outstanding getting £3.5m for Puscas.

Only just seen Mason has been interviewed as well. If the 1871 Podcast aren’t just buying into ITK tweets…

How else are they going to find out about it?


To be fair, given the amount of people they have spoken too on that podcast both current and former I would be more surprised if they didn't have contact with someone who may well know what is going on that them not. Doesn't make anything they tweet necessarily accurate of course.

Personally, I am not keen on a manager with no experience of League One. Wilder is the best we can hope for and after him someone who knows the league or has got a side promoted fairly recently.

Obviously, it can work with an inexperienced manager but I do wonder how someone like Mason would get on managing players who don’t have the same technical ability as the players he’s been around during his time at Spurs.


Yeah I'd certainly prefer Wilder to be in charge rather than Mason, but I'm always keen on seeing how someone new does who steps into the job. I feel like he's got a career in management somewhere.

Probably not if he starts with us though.


No, probably not, but still some positives though like it would be with any candidate. A fresh start, decent transfer money to use, a good opportunity to build a squad without having to move much on etc.

Chris Wilder has been offered the job by the club and they are now waiting on him to make a final decision.

Reading have also been in talks with Nathan Jones, but it appears that Wilder is the number one target.

Both would be a really rather excellent end to this week / start to next week.

Might be a bit confusing though to have two managers, mind you it worked with Q&G.

Yeah, would be fine with either Wilder or Jones. For L1 would be excellent appointments.

Yeah Wilder or Jones would be a significant upgrade on anything we have had in our recent history.

We may have waited too long...

Phil Neville is now available and we all know how Mr Dai likes an ex-Man Utd player

I think I've mixed up my threads and Nathans. Was thinking Baxter for goalie and Wilder for Manager.

I already had them pegged to go down, but this had made me even more confident.
