    We're now approaching the midpoint of the international break and we've not appointed anybody, be it Murray or somebody from the outside.

    It's like they've panicked, results weren't happening under Stendel and they thought put Murray in to fix the tactics he obviously had there ear, it hasn't worked.

    The club seems to be being allowed to drift, no leadership, top to bottom. No older football head.

    What the hell is going on...

    Deep breath, now the club put out a 21 word "holding statement"
    I have it on good authority from posters on here that its standard practice we just need to be patient.

    I don't think they panicked about results. I don't think they care about results.

    I think they threw their teddies out of the cot because Daniel Stendel dared to tell the truth and criticised them publicly. Their egos couldn't take it so they sacked him and brought a yes man in who they knew would toe the party line.

    Don’t think they’ve any plans at all to bring in a new coach. Certainly not before January and maybe not even until the EOS.
    What annoys me most is the silence. They’re treating us with contempt. As paying customers it ain’t on

    I would be amazed if the position hasn't been sorted before Blackburn. But then again, in this age of lunacy (football and the world in general) who fckn knows?

    Truth to tell, save for them hinting that there are legal connotations, unfortunately,
    we don't know the true reason as to why Daniel Stendel has left Oakwell.

    Because of the secrecy from both sides you could be forgiven for assuming that it's not because of
    anything he's done, but more something that he's said.?

    Regarding team matters, normally the majority of Boards are usually open with their fan base because they are the life blood of any football club. After all these weeks, it really is disgraceful, that our owners have seen fit not to share further details however scant they might be with us.

    Quite clearly, recent results have shown that our present squad are unfortunately not equipped to play consistently at Championship level and Adam Murray doesn't appear to be able to provide the remedy and set them up to prevent conceding sloppy goals and more importantly winning games. At this stage, draws are absolutely no good to us.

    Given the facts, "someone" with experience and the ability to rectify our on field shortcomings MUST be brought in sooner rather than later and come the January window, that person must be given a say in the type and number of players they need to bring in to give us any chance of retaining our Championship status.

    If they do nothing in the forthcoming window and let us simply slip back into League One, its not difficult to anticipate as to how our loyal fan base will react, particularly with regard to season ticket renewals. I really do fear that a lot of fans will vote with their feet and stay away at least until the present owners sell up.

    The honeymoon period is over and the excitement that most of us felt when they bought the Club has dissipated to the point that most fans now have absolutely no confidence in their future custodianship.

    This is when we realise our owners are an absolute joke.

    I’m presuming they are waiting for us to win a game before giving it Murray. Might be a long wait.

    I honestly think that’s what they have been clinging on to too.
