when is the new gaffer being appointed
Should have been by the end of this week? Not sure if that includes the weekend, but nothing yet. Not like Witton to drag something out 
I expect whats probably happened is our first choice has either turned us down or made unrealistic demands re budget and/or wages, and now we’re back at square one trying to decide which North West Counties mastermind we should turn to to lead us to under-budget mediocrity next season.
Forza Witton and all who sail upon her.
Will be announced on Monday apparently !
monday,does that mean we are holding out for the cheapest option
No I don’t think so, it’s basically all agreed but will be confirmed and announced On Monday ! The rumour mill might know before then but I have not heard who it is.
John Gregory has left Crawley today…
Apparently, the club had decided not to announce the appointment until Monday as there was still a matter of protocol.
Protocol? This is all getting really tiresome everything we do has to be dragged out, until the fun is taking out of it! And if the case is we are now looking at second or third options… Well http://youtu.be/okMN4A6FnA8
Protocol, another corporate load of bull, I wonder what deluded self proclaimed fantasist came out with that statement ? probably something to do with budget constraints and financial year end or something equally implausible.
This is becoming boring and ridiculous, what makes it even more pathetic is that the new manager will probably be someone very few people will have heard of and will leave us all feeling flat and depressed even more so than after the last game of the season.
By protocol it probably means the new manager has a current club and because of this there are reasons for the delay such as his contracts, commitments etc to be honoured it does not have to be for negative reasons lets move on and try to be positive.
Did the club actually say that the announcement would be made by the end of the week? If they didn’t fair enough, if they did its an incredibly poor statement to make and they should have took “protocol” and everything else into consideration before doing so.

By protocol he means that we haven’t told the unsuccessful applicants that they haven’t got the job.
But glad to see you are so positive about things.
Why is it boring and ridiculous? old manager left two weeks ago. Club said we will announce appointment soon. Announcement coming. What’s boring about that?
God help you for the next month or so when the volunteers at the club are having a well earned break and no news comes out for a while. Or should we make a point of hand delivering some news to you to make sure you aren’t bored.

It doesn’t to me mate. “Hopeful” of an announcement being made this week is entirely different from being promised it. UTA
To be honest it sounds like we have offered the job to someone and he is thinking about it, and we are hopeful he accepts or we will spin it that we are following ‘protocol’ when he declines, is just my view on it
You could well be right. Personally I don’t think the club should be giving any timescales to the media. Just my view on it.
Totally agree mate, it just builds false hope and frustration in my opinion
If someone has applied for the job and did not understand the financial constraints we have I am not sure I would want him as manager! I think you will find the position is filled and by someone well known. How do I know this? Because I know and trust Mark Harris.
WHS.

Well you have your view and I have mine, that’s what happens in a democracy !
However we also get politicians answers and lots of spin, people looking to further their own career on the back of others hard work - lots of talk but never deliver
