    5 days left on the early bird. Simple really, do you think the new manager will be announced before it ends?

    The early bird always catches the worm……unless your Barnsley FC.

    If it's Stendel, it won't be announced until after their play-off campaign is done. The longer it goes on, the more likely I'm inclined to think it will be him.

    Could announce it before then with him only starting after theoretically.

    2nd June their playoffs finish so 2 more weeks until he could be announced if that's the case

    I'm glad I've absolutely no idea who our next Head Coach is. Ignorance is bliss epitomises me perfectly.

    "Everyone" - by this I'm guessing it's impatient knobheads on twitter that decided since it's not been announced yet it's not happening?

    It could, I guess it depends on whether he's waiting to see if he gets another deal there too, or if they get promoted. I reckon the ball is as much in his court as it is ours. I'm just speculating though.

    I'm coming around to the idea of it being Stendel again, whilst it's probably not a great level he's been coaching at, to take a team from 9th in the division to 3rd then 1st is still a great feat regardless of the level.

    Everyone is playing bluff and counter bluff.
    Those who wait for an announcement will end up paying more if they renew.
    Those who want to save money will buy now and may later wonder why they bothered.

    Ur right maybe a bit overdramatic but a fair few saying it’s off and haven’t seen one person shut it down so far slightly worrying

    Doug O'Kane confirmed he was one of a number of candidates being considered.

    That's just speculation. Word from the board or Stendel is confirmation

    No - got to let this drag on a bit yet. Folk will be taking annual leave now. Expect something mid June.

    A fair few? Who? People on twatter? Facebook? Insta? I can't believe there's a "fair few" people who have inside info on the state of our recruitment policy who are willing to go on social media and post about it.

    Of course, but obviously you'll not get any confirmation from either of those until it's completed. Until then, I'd argue that Doug is the most reliable source otherwise.
