    Who's on VP-watch today? I'd offer to do a couple of hours but I'm in a different country.

    @Silverbantam@Silverbantam has neglected his duties of late. Needs to get a few pictures as he peaks from behind the bins.

    Have Morecambe had their COVID secure parade around the town yet or civic reception?

    Adams involvement or otherwise might be quite telling. I’m sure he’s just enjoying the moment and having time off, before the usual championship manager supporters tell him where he’s going wrong...

    Did it with Plymouth too and the difference is he’s got them over the line. Flynn can’t

    Most people form a Plan B when they devise the Grand Plan. You always have to have alternative options, even if that is to go to interviews and an appointment from the best available candidate. A timetable from advertising to appointment should be in place and take no longer than a week.

    Wrexham is on the outskirts of Liverpool like Bradford is on the outskirts of Manchester.

    Adams has that edge of experience over Flynn who is still in his first job, even though he's been there a few years now. And to be fair to Flynn, he lost a lot of his better players in January if I recall which put them on a really poor run. If they had managed to keep that squad together all season, I would've fancied them for the top 3.

    Absolutely right. I thought that at the time of the suggestion.

    As I said in another topic, Agaard was spotted coming out of Ali’s takeaway opposite the Mecca on Saturday night, whilst I was heading to VP for the night shift.

    I know where Wrexham is I’ve been enough times watching City usually getting beaten there. Flynn seems ready to leave Newport and I’m sure he’s prepared to take a job away from South Wales. Wrexham have new owners and it would not be a major shock if Flynn took that job.

    Here is a question, genuine in that.

    Adams comes on board. A rebuild of the squad occurs, backroom and all that. Is your expectancy (not desire) for Adams to get us PROMOTED in his first season and if not, what in your opinion happens to Adams?

    Sacked and a new merry go round?

    This is based on the hypothetical scenario of Adams coming and not reaching PROMOTION next season.
