The plot thickens!!Des says the club may have gone a little bit early with the news about Hackett and said things will be clearer at the weekend!!
So maybe Hackett isn’t number 2!
Yes I didn't quite get that.Des says the club may have gone a little bit early with the news about Hackett and said things will be clearer at the weekend!!

Who cares? Nothing to see here. We’re 5th.Des says the club may have gone a little bit early with the news about Hackett and said things will be clearer at the weekend!!

And aren’t Tim and Grant very lucky we are 5th in the league! I’d hate to imagine what it would be like if we were mid table.Who cares? Nothing to see here. We’re 5th.

Extraordinary? WTF is going on?Des says the club may have gone a little bit early with the news about Hackett and said things will be clearer at the weekend!!

you can’t be genuine?perhaps you can talk me through the "red flag" around Chris Hackett?
Someone appointed Graham Rix as our manager- now that should seriously have been a red flag.
Des Post Match, re: Hackett ‘appointment’:
“In terms of how we work together and what that looks like, we are still discussing that and things should be clearer before the weekend”
Also Des Post Match, when asked about Hackett:
“Yeah, we’ve probably gone a little bit too early on that”
This is AFTER our CEO has released an update, that states Hackett will be Des’s Assistant. Does anyone at the club have a f*****g clue what’s going on?
It’s clear our increasingly distant CEO, doesn’t!
Didn’t Tim also say in his little announcement that it was Des’ decision?So does that read that Tim nice but Dim would like Hackett to be the assistant as it's an easy option (cheaper too) but Des still has aspirations of bringing in someone else? Or am I putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5?
Ye. I genuinely have no idea why some Oxford United supporters appear to think the world is about to end because of the way the club announced the new assistant manager, or the new assistant to the manager.you can’t be genuine?
Not sure if you or I misheard this (probably me) but I thought Des had said “we probably should have gone earlier on that” i.e. we should’ve announced CH’s role earlier than we did.Des Post Match, re: Hackett ‘appointment’:

Or the manager implying that the assistant manager isn’t actually yet the assistant manager? Doesn’t ring any alarm bells?Ye.

Do you think Hackett is temporary and just to the end of the season?I deleted my original post as it came across like I was waving my dick around, I knew there was someone in the building because I literally saw them in the building being shown around, this was early into the Des era. I won't risk any of my ex-colleagues jobs by pushing for a reason why it didn't happen, it's not up to me to do that, but it's damn right up to the powers that be to communicate better.
There was a second person in line should target 1 not happen, someone who Des has worked with before (I believe he was named on a thread on here) which didn't happen because they decided to not relocate their young family.
This was all before I left the club in December, so I'm not sure if there would have been more names since, but it seems to me the higher ups have gone;
"Des, we don't want to push for the guy you really want, the other guy won't move here because what we offer isn't worth it, have Chris until the end of the season so we save face and can provide some clarity to our impatient fans"
