    As far as I can see lots have said he is one of some of interest to them, nothing credible that he is actually talking or the club has accepted though.

    Genuinely, I haven't seen a single reputable source that says anything other than they've made an approach. I agree though that the club could have either confirmed or denied the approach. To me though, that says its either a done deal and to be announced imminently, or isn't anywhere near close. The optimist in me reckons it's the latter, simply with the speed that it's all come about.

    Yeah my point is it’s gone viral enough now, for the fans to deserve an update. It’s either b0llocks or it’s true. We shouldn’t be the last to find out what’s going on.

    This thread title needs editing to add Sheffield Wednesday.

    Say they put a statement out tonight saying no approach has been made, will there be a precident then to put a statement out everytime something changes? There's people in this thread questioning whether Khaled was lying in his interview on Wednesday last week. I sometimes feel the club is damned if they do and damned if they don't.

    You think that the club should pander to the idiotic gibbering baying ill-educated selfish twitterati who blow up a storm that becomes "viral" as though it then deserves to be noticed?

    I think that each and every one has the right to type out whatever they want to.

    But I don't want BFC to take any notice of it at all.

    This thread's bad enough.

    I haven't seen anything in this thread that confirms ought about Duff going, although Pete O'Rourke is usually reasonably reliable. However, I have seen a tweet from JAQ today, can't remember where (BFC Polls or something?) that without saying it verbatim basically confirms Duff's gone.

    Maybe they just can't say anything until Martin is officially confirmed as having left Swansea. Poor though that a director can tweet but the club hasn't put out a statement at the very least saying the same.

    Think we're safe. Given recent developments Swansea will go for O'Neil or Moore. You're all gerrin stressed over nowt.

    I guess we’ll see won’t we. Whether it’s all of those things, or just true.

    Just looked on her Twitter account and can’t see that she’s tweeted anything? Unless it’s been deleted now…

    Someone posted this:
    Don’t panic everyone - the club is bigger than any one person and always will be -
    We had a great season last year and are gearing up for another one -
    Remember all our players and staff are human with goals and plans individual to them - be kind - we are aligned in our goals.

    From Julie Ann ffs ‍♀️ in a group chat.

    If a rumour of such importance as this, reaches the clamour it has, I absolutely think the fans deserve comment. That’s just my view.

    It’s been deleted so we can announce through the proper channels of a helicopter pilot or Martin Devaney telling it to someone who served him in a shop

    That is Ok if you Assume that Duff has no say in the transfers in and out . Otherwise at a critical time we would be rudderless and until the replacement is found we would have no idea the direction he/she;) would want to take tactically, the system he would want to play and so what type of players he is looking for
    In fact recruiting any players when you are managerless is going to be challenging as potential players want to know who will be in charge before committing pen to paper.

    I mean, that could quite easily refer to Mads and have nowt to do with Duff. Or vice versa.
