    Exactly, Dave. Until BOTH parties know 100% ......... WHAT is there to tell the fans and media, etc ? ;)
    I did mention on Saturday, that today will probably be the day of decision.

    Exactly we have been sadly failing in that area that’s why we are doing something about it

    I would think an announcement today one way or the other woud be good for both parties, either Grayson moves on or we get him and his backroom crew signed up, there is plenty of business to do before the start of the new season.

    I don’t disagree. But like lots of things in life priorities have to be made, and in our situation it is a luxury too far. If they want to continue to develop young players they need to find it from other investment, not fromwhat the club earns.

    I can't see Scunthorpe appointing a manager until they know what division they'll be playing in next season.

    It’s 200k a year one player with decent pay. The fact is it is paying off already. We have Seen Robinson Gibson and others coming through already

    I just don’t understand what there is to talk about?? Grayson said they have been talking for weeks. I imagined it would be annnounced after the last match. If they are playing games with each other to see who has the biggest dick, it is unacceptable. Get on and make a decision!

    All they are doing is making us relegation certs next season , but the youth and development squad would be better prepared for a promotion push from lge 2 or even the conference.

    You may be correct, that's why I put a question mark at the end of my post ;).

    They got muddled up right at the start, how could they say that they'd play attractive attacking football as a must, accept losses that would happen from such an approach and also bring through "our" players, then talk absolute baba. "Promotion in 3 years" "Top two is still on" etc?

    That's what pisses me of more than anything, apart from that stupid movie, just be straight with me and I'll happiliy follow a well thought plan and I'll wait and wait. But don't waffle and then flip flop, now we are chasing a manager totally at odds with what they set out to do. How are the owners, particularly Rupp, going to be happy with this?

    It’s looking like the delay is to give them time to appoint a new manager and announce him at the same time as Grayson leaves
