The problem with Terry is the same as Manning. The first sniff from above and he’d be gone like a shot.

That’s the least of the problems with John Terry

I'm coming round to thinking that this is a fairly normal state of affairs.

We've just had no-one really worth stealing for a few decades now.


(Obvs we shouldn't go for Terry!)

Jerome gives his thoughts

Well said and with the emotion taken out of it I think most fans will agree with pretty much everything. I think the players could manage themselves for the game tomorrow, of course you need someone to deliver the pep talks and Short & Co will provide that, but I think there will be a real determination within them to not let this slip and I wouldn't be surprised to see us convincingly put Orient to the sword with a convincing win - 4-0.

Chaps, I've been emailed something in error, I think. Worth sending on to the club, just in case?

80 plus applications apparently:

Interim boss discusses the profile of manager Oxford United likely to pursue

CRAIG Short reckons Oxford United will look to replace Liam Manning with a head coach in a similar mould.

There was always going to be massive interest. What a great opportunity for someone to work with quality players, and surroundings. Plus also get a promotion on their cv. I expect a large percentage are actually currently employed.

Just wondering does this make him a snake too?

No.

Wayne Browne has his say on Facebook…

I imagine Dean Whitehead will be one of the 80 or so who have applied. Not sure what age he is but if he's got aspirations to be a manager then you'd think that has to happen soonish. Currently assistant at Watford. Wouldn't be high on my list though.

Hmmmm, think that means he's well acquainted to both and might want his job back !

For what it's worth, Paddy McCarthy's odds have come down. Now favourite with BetVictor.

Update on Des Buckingham:

Wasn’t on the betting list for Lincoln job but went to 4/6 10 mins ago. Betting has now closed.

As would almost every manager with ambition. It would be bad for us but there is very little loyalty in football anymore.
Money talks, simple!!

 

[bdodwell]

I would have been delighted with Des B but looks like he's joined Lincoln

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Does this mean Lincoln is a more attractive proposition than us?!
