Well they might wait until the season is over, if true this sounds similar to when Ian Burchnall left for Forest Green Rovers.

Exactly, May 2022 revisited. But how well did that turn out? Montague added Maca, Scott and Austin. Found a manager to play Nemane over DKE. Was soon to add JJ and Bostock. He’d recruited players who are now, have been, or are soon to be Championship players - Maca, Ruben, Baldwin. Our 4th NL season was a masterclass, why can’t our 4th L2 season be the same.

I’m not concerned about this news, apart from the possible impact it has on this season.

I can see why there are rumours - he was there before and is doing well at a top League 2 club.

I hope it is just paper talk though. I would be disappointed in him if he did attempt a Burchnall manoeuvre. The transfer windows might not have been great, but we had a strong enough basis to allow MP to rehabilitate himself as a head coach after the near-disaster at Burton. I hope he appreciates that and doesn't bail at the first opportunity.

He will probably go if he's offered the job.

You can never tell in football, we have seen managers move on because they have done well and only for to turn out to be a disaster of a decision. He came here having something to prove, his last club's supporters didn't rate him and helped spread fear amongst our support.

I would hope he would see we are proving to be a good fit, and he's well supported.

He has a chance, much like Luke Williams and Ian Burchnall. It's closer to Williams in truth, he played for Burnley and has connections there and I don't tend to think it works but doing well will attract interest. It beats having several managers being sacked, and if he does go maybe we'll get nice compo.
