Don’t panic! The same thing happened at Scunny:
« on January 08, 2013, 08:40:11 am by Donnyjim »
In the 2006 / 2007 season Scunthorpe United were top of league 1 at christmas and then Laws left them suddenly for Sheffield Wednesday. They promoted Adkins internally. They got promoted that year as champions.

I know Jones and Flynn aren’t Nigel Adkins by any stretch of the imagination. However, the lesson here is, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it?

It definitely isn’t broken given our league position and an internal ‘ish’ appointment would keep the continuity, team spirit and a degree of consistency,

Surely, this makes more sense than upsetting the apple cart?

I think I just shortened the odds on BF haha, Bobins has come in too though, but can't see him leaving Cov to come here, no chance.

Don't forget Cov are in proper financial shit, if he is in line for an interview I reckon JR & the board could convince Robins to leave & join us.

Cov have been skint for ages but it didn't stop them getting Bobins in the first place, then McGoldrick. The stadium issue is just them holding out to get a better deal, they're not really going to be playing at Hinkley! I'll say it quietly, but Cov are a much bigger team than us I'm afraid, with greater potential, he won't leave them for us.
