    How long do we wait for a answer from Adams
    Flynn stated after playoff he may not be at Newport next season
    So go get him now
    We can't give T/S the jobs back they were out of there depth in the end
    who do we get please please NOT McCall

    If this saga continues much longer, and Adams doesn't agree to come, we really are going to be stuck for laughs.

    I can't even think of a realistic alternative.

    Don't worry Stuart is welcome anytime at VP but his day's of leading City up the pyramid are long gone.An announcement is not imminent but discussions are on going the dust is still settling in the bay.
    I'm taking the Sparky stance I'm not unduly worried it will be sorted sooner rather than later.

    If Morecambe are celebrating promotion on Saturday I think it will be Monday before any announcement

    Surely something needs to be announced this week. The next season's fixtures are released in 3 weeks. Presumably the players are due back the week after
    No pre-season matches have been announced.
    If it's not Adams there is a lot to sort out for the mystery man.

    Had Morecambe lost the play off, I'm sure he'd have been announced by now. Naturally, the situation has become more complex following their victory. He's worked hard to achieve promotion and must be tempted to pit his wits at the higher level.

    And who would deny Adam's a final farewell parade if it's made official Monday,Tuesday or Wednesday next week so be it.
    Everything must be done correctly and with agreement by both parties.

    When’s the celebration? If he’s leaving then tell the Morecambe fans so they can give him a public send off. It’s helping neither club keeping everything secret

    Have any of the promotion/trophy winning teams done public celebrations this year? Not sure a council would sign off on an open bus thing or large crowds gathering at moment

    I doubt the Morecambe celebration would attract "large crowds"

    I reckon if I was Adams I'd stay at Morecambe.

    Heck of a challenge, very low expectations, everything positive you do will be seen as above and beyond, and if he can get some of the better players to commit, they've every chance of staying up in a division where there's always a couple of basket case clubs.

    All depends on what the owner has told him he will get to spend, but also if they are giving him a better deal, If they are not offering a longer deal and we are offering him a better deal and longer he would be mad to not move.
