One thing is for sure, either the likes of Sky and Dale have made themselves look bloody stupid, or something went tits up at the weekend. KUMB have now floated the idea that O'Neill has got cold feet but may yet still take the job. But in case that is wrong, they link Allardyce to the role too. That's a bit like the weather girl telling us that it may be brilliant sunshine but then again it may hack it down with rain but there is a possibility of snow and blizzards!
For what it is worth, I reckon O'Neill has been waiting on news of the Liverpool job and that the Merseyside draw yesterday and our hammering on Saturday have not aided his decision making process. Things are still up in the air. As for Big Sam, a move to the mighty metropolis may not suit this black pudding eating heathen. Talking of eating, who is that working his way through a great line of pies. You must be Jolking!
Meanwhile, Avram is waking up and rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Another day. Bagel, cup of coffee, potter around in dressing gown and slippers. "What's that dear? Today? Nothing special. Same old, same old. Worried? What about? I'm sure we will get out of trouble. My job? Why would I be worried about that? The newspapers? Since when have we ever believed anything they write in the newspapers?"

So now, to no class and no common decency we can add incompetance, especially in the light of the Times assertion that Grant will receive little compensation if we are in the bottom three in January. What on earth was that early morning phone call to Sky intended to achieve?
If I was either of the two Martins I'd be heading south for a holiday, with my mobile phone turned off. No decent manager with any common sense would work for these no mark idiots who have reduced a once proud club to an utter laughing stock.
Either O'Neill can commit or he can fcuk off as far as I'm concerned. If we are the consolation prize after Liverpool and he has "cold feet" then to hell with him.
It seems the owners are doing their best to mess this thing up. They should have sacked AG before O'Neill's name was announced (formally or informally) as his replacement. Now they have offended O'Neill and he pull out. Brilliant!
Something had to be arranged at the weekend. The rumours were too well publicised for it to have been pure speculation. I think you hit the nail on the head yesterday. Somebody jumped the gun and upset MON a touch.
It all sounded a little bit too good to be true on Saturday. This is all dragging on a little too long now. Sack him or back him. If a replacement isnt immediately available, let the assistant take charge. How can the team or manager be expected to perform with this circus backbeat!
Pretty obvious what happened - MON took the job - someone leaked it before Grant was given the heave ho - which doesn't look good to fellow managers - so MON has thrown a hissy as he didn't want to look a cnut and from there on who knows - reckon he'll still sign myself.
Theyre just doing what they tried with Zola. Trying to make him walk rather than sack him. One trick ponies they are. Unfortunately, it means every thing's played out in public. We need to get rid of these classless, moronic chavs.
"Trying to make him walk rather than sack him"
I agree, makes sense if it saves money.
Maybe Grants too smart for that though

Or maybe O'Neill accepted to come only if they can secure some players (e.g. Keane and some others). Hence, they can't announce the changeover before they first meet Martin's preconditions for becoming our manager.
There you go again Stani - the voice of reason - seriously mate you're too good for here - why couldn't HF come out with something sensible like that?
There you go Stani mate, our racist friend has returned singing your praises again. Want confirmation it is the same guy? Check out the "You lose" comment on the Jumped the Gun thread!
