edhunteruk Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 ...joe either accepts the owners offer of a contract....or declines it??? i know it has been in the advertiser that the owners have offered or are set to offer joe a contract after the brighton game. i know a lot will depend on what budget there is and who he can bring in as number 2,but how long will we have to wait???this week..next week....close season????

RoytonBlueLad Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I personally would wait until after Walsall. Don't want this lot slacking any more than they already are. If that's at all possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I'd wait until the end of the season to announce it, so as not to cause any further disruption to the side. That doesn't mean that TTA et al can't start to make up a shortlist, commence the interview process etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldham Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 (edited) I don't know when it will happen but iv been told Joe will only accept if he feels he can take the club forward and if he feels Oldham will give him funds to make signings Edited April 20, 2009 by Moldham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shefflatic Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 from the advertiser: 'i did stefan stam a favour by taking him off, he was nowhere near it' pretty to the point there joe lad, good to see. Having said that, a reserve side this year would have meant stammy would've had more fitness games this year and perhaps wouldnt be so much off the pace. out of the current squad loans included: stam, maher, hughes, liddell, wolfenden, hazell, jones, ferreira, whitaker, o'grady, kalala, bell, lomax all for the chop for me. leaving: fleming crossley gregan (new contract) eardley black taylor smalley allott westlake(contract) lee stephens alessandra Decentish base to build on, over to you Joe/Willie/Ritchie etc.....

ghostofcecere Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 We need a quick decision as whoever the new manager is we need them installed before July 1st when all the player contracts are up. There is a rebuilding job to be done as the new guy will want to operate with his squad, not Shez's. We don't want to leave it right til the last minute and the new guy has now time to prepare for the new season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't want to leave it right til the last minute and the new guy has now time to prepare for the new season. I agree a decision needs to be quick. But I don't think an announcement does. We often bemoan the lack of news, but then equally bemoan that the club are too honest at times. I think in this case we need to keep schtum until the man's in place and the contract ink dry.

KUNGFOO Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 tbh i think joe has been making big changes in the last few weeks to indicate he will be the manager next season as he has sent players back etc or onloan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance, there will be an OWTB lynch mob assembled well before the inks dry, regardless of who the poor bugger is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking he's done what was asked of him. Come in and run at the playoffs. On failing to do that clear out the waste so a new manager can come in and not have to deal with telling Andy Liddell where the post office is for his pension. I don't think it's telling of his wish to be here next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a fair wedge of the team that played at Brighton. If you'd witnessed it, it's no base I want next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt witness it but still agree, i would personally keep out of the current crop fleming allott stephens (give the lad a proper chance) lee lewi (although not necssarily as a first team striker) smalley taylor plus the four young lads offered pro deals rest can go for all I care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
