Dunno.

It’s West Ham: very little happens logically.
I presume they were waiting for Nuno to say yes, which he has done i'm sure.
 
 
That’ll be my guess, too. But I don’t know.

So we’ve retained Macaulay?  For now?  

No point as Sullivan is now manager, coach, CEO, Head of Footbsll Operations and Director of Football.  He’s finally got what he wanted as you will see with thr thumping we get at Everton 🥳

The timing is fucking mental. Why would you do it NOW rather than during the week past or on Tuesday morning?

chaos for Monday now. Presume Kevin Keen steps in unless they have their man ready but this is crazy timing. 

Either (if the new man isn’t ready and I guess not given no announcement) Sullivan can’t face Moyes being the one to embarrass him by ending his manager - those optics are not good - or Potters just said ‘fuck you I’m not coaching that game given what you’re doing so just fire me now’

My thoughts on that is surely you say to the new manager OK it's agreed but at this very late stage we shall announce it after Monday's game has been completed because of the concern of the players having had any training from a new coach.

There is no coach at all on the touchline and it's going to be a total winging it job. Well, unless they take control of the game themselves with all their coaches but then everyone is totally unprepared and does no one any favours. What a fucking clusterfuck of a situation to create for yourself. 😆

Very strange that they waited until today. It should have been done on Monday, but maybe as suggested they wanted to make sure a replacement was lined up. If it is Nuno, then I think overall that is a positive appointment. One thing is for sure, we couldn’t carry on with Potter in charge.

Nuno low possession and fast countering will require player investment in Jan imo.  That midfield rebuild remains incomplete and we need a central striker snd another aerially dominant, physically imposing CB.

Snd around and around we go on the Sullivan / Brady circus ride !!!

NO MORE BS !!!

I see all the first team coaches plus the keeping coaches have all left with immediate effect 
Is anyone lined up or will Steve Potts & Keen do Everton?
Am up in Glasgow at the moment, shall I give Russell Martin a call?

I wonder how much the whole pointless messing with the GOALTENDING situation cost us?

2 Coaches for the expensive Hermansen?  A complete waste.

This in big flashing neon lights. The BS Regime is really excelling itself in how not to manage and at a time they couldn't be feeling the heat more from everyone. I hope this gives them the feeling this season is their last and that it just aint worth it anymore.

Top manager who doesn't rate JWP.
 
 
Don't think he's a top manager but he's comfortably the best available within the blinkered cheapskate parameters the idiot Sullivan insists on. 

He's basically brown Moyes, but we aint in any position to be pontificating over footballing ideologies so I welcome him, even though the football will be shit. Should keep us up though.

Not just that but more importantly sack him before last Monday for a while weeks training for the players to receive some kind of instruction from a Caretaker/new manager for the upcoming fixture.

It's outrageous to sack a Manager and now expect a Premier League Team to play Away with zero understanding of what the merry fuck is going on.

I fully expect a dicking now and for once in a long time I genuinely feel sorry for the hopeless players as that's just fucking ridiculous prep.

Should it be Nuno he will cost even considerably more than the Swedish Amateur Coach Potter but certainly a step up in coaching ability. Hopefully that all comes out of Sullivan’s long pockets but doubt it knowing him and cripples the Clubs finances with all this ridiculous clueless actions.

Good point Fauxstralian !! 

Sullivan as manager to complete a clean sweep as owner in all footballing positions. Added to his role as CEO/Head of Football Operations and Director of Football.  

The fan protests must not stop. Its important to rachet up the pressure because thats the only reaon he has acted

Sullivan has probably only just realised we play David Moyes' team on Monday and doesn't fancy any more humiliation.

Maybe David Moyes could manage both teams on Monday.
