    I don’t like to see anyone sack, but something had to change, time will tell, onto the next chapter….

    11 games into the season and we've sacked the manager. So now a new manager has to come in with yet another set of ideas and backroom staff. I yearn for the day when this club is actually run like a competent sporting organisation and not some two bit non league side.

    Reports suggest club already in the process of appointing Hughes successor.
    Truman must then be shown the door in my opinion.

    I hope he can think quicker than he can move.

    Radio 5 commentary of Newcastle v PSG were talking about Mbappe one minute and then suddenly announced Mark Hughes sacking.
    The next appointment has to be based on where the club is currently and the fact that these are 4th division players.

    Can people bore off with the Trueman comments. Hes a coach and nothing more. He worked for Hughes and will have coached as requested. Plenty of you did this with Drury who is now coaching at Man Utd.

    If Mcdonald does Well, he will probably have a chance of the job until end of season.

    The pitiful effort in the play-offs should have been the end and not the beginning of the end. Had Hughes gone then it would have been a better time to be looking for his successor. Fortunately there are good options out there looking for their next opportunity. And Bradford City is a very attractive vacancy.

    Most important appointment in the club's history coming up or am I overdoing it. I do think we are very much at a crossroads. If we get the next appointment wrong we could be on the precipice.

    And more to the point what evidence have we got that Macdonald is a good coach, is he even a coach?
