Alessandro Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) I’d question which one of those ‘top’ options would actually come? Suspect it’s becoming more and more obvious in the football world that we have an owner who likes to meddle in first team matters. And the context of Pearson’s sacking will raise eyebrows outside the club. People talk. But look, there are some good options out there, proven track records. History (Tinnion, Millen, LJ, Holden) tells us it won’t be one of those, but another one of SL’s ego appointments.

CodeRed Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I'll take a guess now and say the most likely Lansdown/Tinnion ( that's the new order) pick will be Liam Manning. Wether he will want to leave Oxford after less than a year who knows. The new head coach role will report to Tinnion - I think that's becoming clear. I would be surprised at Rowett 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Someone who will say the Lansdowns are great & we should be grateful for all they’ve done for us. Not someone who will point out their 20 years in charge has seen absolutely no progress away from infrastructure. Another toady, like LJ. Bit of advice for crayon boy, in case he’s inexplicably involved here.
