Where did you hear that hadji? Is it set in stone? Didn't someone close to one of the players say Evans was being unveiled on Monday?

Yeah he is, but by the time they will have got the sheet off, Venus will have been in charge for another three games.

Why would we rush to appoint Venus ?

No managerial track record.

Surely you give him a few matches and then re-asses.

Of all the names being touted around, I hope they give the job to Venus tbh.
Couldn't give a rats arse about any part he is playing in the Ryton saga or his lack of direct management experience. He has been close enough to football management for a long time and knows how it works. He is also familiar with the set up at CCFC and the controls imposed by our owners, the players know him and he has 2 from 2 so far.

He has the best chance of providing stability imo which is what we most need right now, so bring it on.

Then Sepalla will have to employ 2 new board members seeing they're already looking for one.

Odd to give him a contract now, which would mean compo if they want to get rid of him, rather than just giving him a few games to see how he gets on.

I have heard nothing, but the players like him. Last I heard it was Evans or Di Cannio (Warnock to)

Never sure if that's a good thing you know.

Respect a must, but liking can = taking the piss if not careful.

Because he has half a brain, half a decent reputation sill there, so will wait for a more stable job with better prospects?

Do you mean... The face of CCFC in taking the Club forward, but actually dismantling our heritage at the same time?

When TM left he said he didn't want any kind of pay off so the club could use the money saved on his salary to improve the team.
As he has worked with MV for many years I suspected they had talked about the aftermath and that Mark would take over the team at least in the short to medium term. TM said he told Mark his plans before telling SISU the following morning.
Jamie Clapham went the next day so there must be a reasonable reduction in the weekly overhead as things stand
There has been speculation (as mentioned before) that the need to cut costs had become so severe that TM may have even been asked consider this when picking the team.
Many players at our level get at least part of their wages in appearance fees so it is a possibility

According to that book that's just come out The deal by the agent Jon Smith dropping players or bringing them off before they play a certain amount of minutes so not to trigger clauses in contracts is common practice though he was talking specifically about the premiership I'm sure the same applies down the leagues.

Hardly, yet most people with a bit of common sense can check it out. He is a director of a property developer company.
Obviously it must gall you that you don't have it
