    And since the country we live in is genuinely massive it must take literally days for them to criss-cross across it in their tuk-tuks and steam engines....

    Embarrassing, I’m over 30 years old and can’t really remember us not being run by cowboys and clowns. I’ll leave you to decide which these are.

    Or someone has become available they want to talk to. its a little odd though, unless Mcdonald has had enough and decided management in any form is not for him.

    After 2 crushing defeats the honeymoon period for Kev was well and truly over and he's obviously thought the manager lark at this club is not all that so time to revert back to the role he joined for. Can't argue with him, it always was wrong in my opinion that he was left to be the voice of all things going on at the club following the departure of MH. All good when we're winning but not so much fun when not.

    Park, he only did it because McDonald was fed up and packed it in otherwise it would still be tumbleweed territory.

    So if Mark Trueman wins his 1st 2 games in charge do we all start clamouring for him to get the job full time as we did Kev? Somehow I think not but just shows the mess we're in and needs sorting asap

    Teflon true man the one constant in every shit set up for the last 4 years. I cannot remember a single club replacing a caretaker manager with another we are a laughing stock.

    Sparkes must just be constantly pissed it’s one shit show to another

    Not like that. Basically, saying the caretaker will be replaced by the bloody caretaker!

    Why not just give it’s to his mate to start with as caretaker?

    What stage are we at on the search? It’s like we have no idea who our manager is going to be or who we want.

    When it comes to football. Sparks really is a joker. Needs to go!

    You also said yesterday he’s best keeping his mouth shut and then earlier today you said you just wish the club would issue some sort of statement.
    Make your mind up.

    Whatever the club says you'll be against it. Ryan doesn't listen to keyboard warriors like you.

    (Replying to save Park the time of doing so)

    With no consensus on here of who we would like they may as well just pick someone from out of the crowd, I've stopped caring as to who might be coming in next, we're boring on and off the field.....

    Trueman takes over from Saturday.

    Doubt McDonald is fit enough to start 2 games a week, so will be available for Wycombe game instead
