I hope the appointment is confirmed soon so that he can start the job assembling a squad that will be capable of getting promotion. Assuming it is Lee Bradbury, he has certainly had a varied playing and coaching career at all levels that will hopefully be an asset here.

We’re leaving it far too late to be serious about any promotion push and if rumours are right about Gray turning down the offer for budget reasons we will be way down the pecking order on that side of things.

4 weeks since relegation and nothing, when Dan Hall claimed there is a plan b for relegation he was lying yet again.

3 season tickets not renewed and I know many more in the same boat.

I genuinely don't understand the above dialogue, Lee Bradbury this; someone turned down that.
I have been told, by someone present, that, at the AGM last night everyone was informed that 34 credible applicants had applied, 8 were shortlisted . This was reduced to 4 who were being interviewed yesterday/ today with an announcement likely on Monday.

I’m not saying this is wrong, but it wouldn’t be the first time the club lied would it? Also it’s not exactly hard to pull the wool over the eyes of the members club, most are too preoccupied with making sure they don’t piss their pants for the 8th time that day.

Jobs been offered to two people and they both turned it down, now feeding off the scraps.

Didn’t we have a thousand applications a few months ago and Lewis was the best candidate?

Exactly this. It also does not take 4 weeks to employ a half decent manager at this level, well it does if you’re incompetent.

To be fair they did allow the candidates a week to put the PowerPoint presentation together. This is where Gray came unstuck as he had a virus on his laptop.

So is Bradbury a good call ?
Or just another waster with a pulse ?

Would not be impressed if it is Bradbury.
Surely they wouldn't have kept Lewis even if we had stayed up, they must have been looking for a manager, not it have someone lined up is ridiculous.
