This would suggest that personal terms are all sorted and it is now down to how much compensation we pay Tel Aviv.

"Maccabi have declined to comment on whether Jokanovic has been approached but officials at the club have confirmed the reports off the record"

So they HAVE commented

The fact that we aren't expected to announce before the Derby game is a joke, my maths isn't the greatest but I think that would put us somewhere near the 50 day mark without a manager

Jokanovic now 6 to 1 on. Is the wait over?

Not over until the fat lady conducts her first interview

BTW, that's not a dig at Sarah Brookes. That's just a play on the famous phrase

I really can't see this happening. Suppose I've lost faith in the club's ability

This is the second time I have read that we are not prepared to break the bank to get in any coach - despite the statement from our illustrious chairman that he will do whatever it takes to get us back to the Premier League. It would seem that paying for a decent manager is not included in this claim. FFS cant they see that the longer this goes on the less likely that a capable person will be inclined to sign up as the new Head Coach/Manager/Slave/Dogsbody

I would guess financial fair play has alot todo with not be able to pay people what they want

Welcome to the club, we have jackets

It's not soccer it is FOOTBALL

You generally get what you pay for.
If you pay peanuts, you will probably get Monkeys.
That's why we are up the Creek without a paddle.  
Marooned, Becalmed, demooD, Shipwrecked. Rudderless.
If the ship is not steared away from these choppy waters, we will hit the reef, crash into the rocks, and end up with another great hole in the Starboard, to go with the hole on the Port side of HMS FULHAM.

take a bow that was very good

There are plenty of ways of circumventing these arrangements if you are minded to do so to secure the best available candidate for this position. At the end of the day this is one of the most important positions for the club's future. Costs could be cut elsewhere to balance this.

What is the worst punishment that we could realistically get for the FFP? If it's just a transfer embargo in January, then that shouldn't be TOO much of a deterrant. If we're looking at 10 points off, plus a £5m fine, then maybe so.

That would be my question if I was Joka

[westcliff white]

it could be longer than one window, depend son how much the breach is and what punishment the league deem worthy

Or if we can wangle our way out of it like QPHAHA

Jokanovic now 6 to 1 on. Is the wait over?

Steve Clarke was even shorter than that on the morning of the incident.

This could very well be our John Arne Riise moment (except swap medical with compensation)

So he'll be our manager in 10 years' time when he's utterly lost it then?  fp.gif
