Who comes in? 12:56 - May 20 with 1878 viewssaint22

There is now way Tonda or his staff can stay
So who do we want next?
Seems to me we could do with a hardened proper leader, Pep would be great BUT what about Dyche?

I think a reality check is required.

We are not going to get any credible coach coming into this absolute mess of a club until there is a whole new broom.

And that includes the ownership.

Poll: If we were today re-instated to the play-off final, would you go on Saturday?

Damn straight!

They’re the useless bastards who have landed the club in this mess.

They couldn’t have done a worse job if they’d tried.

You cannot reason a person out of something they were not reasoned into.

There are very few jobs in football. If we don't have a manager there will be a flood of applications don't worry about that.

I agree up to a point but do we really think the owners expected Tonda to do this when they appointed him!?

I do not for one minute think that this would have happened without the knowledge of Spors.

Not part of the ownership as such, but the head of all things on the pitch.

Up to two weeks ago the Sport Republic critics had been quiet and everything looked rosy.

Now the critics are rising up again, but we have to take stock of the situation.

1. At this moment we don't know who is to blame and for what.

2. When Bielsa got caught doing the same for Leeds he did not get banned or fined, the club did but not Bielsa.

3. That being the case then there is no reason why Tonda Eckert should leave the club, yes he may and at this stage the word is "may" have cheated, but he is far from alone in this aspect, he has just been caught and the offence has been dealt with as a club offence not an individual

4. The club overall is obviously not a mess, it has done well to build a great playing squad and a good recruitment policy that brought them all to the club, it has worked hard to clear out a lot of the old coaches and players etc and build something anew.

5. All of the above being the case, assuming we lose the appeal, we simply go again next season, ironically as Bielsa did after Leeds blew promotion in their Spygate year.

6. We will lose some players, but not as many as some would have you think (some have very pro active agents) The club recuited well last year and can do so again this summer

All in all the plan forward is simple, keep calm and carry on, make the changes that need to be made and get back to business.

We can spend the summer moaning about the club, but the reality is the owner is staying and that isn't a problem, no one would be moaning about him if this hadn't reared up and we had played at Wembley and won on Saturday.

Lets face reality a new broom is not just going to walk into the club and when they do there is no guarantee they will have the club's best interests at heart, better the devil you know sometimes

Scott Parker would be the obvious choice if we are forced into a change

In my long and mediocre career I have worked in firms regulated by people like the CFTC in the US and the FCA here in the UK.

The rules and principles of such regulators demand that the highest standards of integrity be met in dealings with your customers/stakeholders . The firms that are regulated live in fear of damaging their reputation. If and when there is damage (and there is here), retaining the services of the individual(s) responsible is completely inconceivable.

Drama Queen?...your accusations, sir , are like the contents of your underpants...there is nothing of substance in either.

For the avoidance of doubt the last paragraph is light hearted and is in no way intended to offend.

Just supposing we do need a new manager prior to August, I wonder if the interviewing board will ask the same questions as Tonda should gave been/was asked

"How do you prepare for the next match to ensure we have an advantage over that particular team to get the win?"

"Well I send one of the lads up to the club's training ground to see how they are preparing to play against us, but do so incognito .............. "

"Great idea, the job's yours!"
