Selles not out

[morganb]

Under what circumstances will Selles go? Is a takeover with new owner bringing in a new manager the only option?

Who at the club has the authority to sack Selles? What are the options for a replacement - guess someone already at the club but not Ruben's backroom staff

Bowen might put a different coloured tie on and go into the dugout again.

League win ratio is not yet as bad as that of the worst manager in Reading's history to date, Paul Clement. The RS league win ratio is currently 23.07% while Clement's tenure finished as 21.30%. And if you compare RS to PC's first 12 league games in charge it's a massive improvement as Clement only had a league win ratio of 8.3% after 12 league games.

Therefore Clement was quite staggeringly ****** awful and he didn't have the embargoes and point deductions on top of it all.

The replacement is easy. We have a choice of Hunt or Bowen.

It's someone who can pull the trigger. But I think that will come soon.

Probably have to wait until a takeover is complete as new owners may want to have "their own man" in as they start to put their mark on things. If things do get really bad then the only real option is to put Hunt/Gilkes/Niedzwiecki/Bowen in as a temporary arrangement until the ownership is sorted (which obviously could be quite a while) as I really can't see another new manager wanting the job when they don't know what on earth is going to happen and whether the new owners would want them there.

Bowen has proven himself in similar circumstances before. Give him the rest of the season, Carey can be acting head of football ops. All hands on deck until the new owner comes in, and then we can have *another* reset next summer.

It all looks hopeless now, but however low we go we can bounce back. Bolton got as low as L2 and it will now be a matter of time until they're Championship again. I want a quick resolution to everything, but the quality of new owner matters infinitely more than speed, even if the uncertain situation condemns us to L2.

Another relegation would involve horrible decisions about restructuring, our academy, our facilities etc., but there will be difficult decisions for new owners in L1 too. I'd rather get in someone who gets the decisions right.

Bristol Rovers sack Joey Barton. 16th and we play them soon

This looks like you're suggesting that you want Joey Barton to come in and takeover from Selles?

Put Selles on garden leave as can not afford to sack him, let Bowen and Hunt take charge until we get a new owner .

That will be the only way.

Sacking him costs the same as putting him on gardening leave.

Yes it would as you have to pay his wages but Bowen and Hunt are already on the payroll.

Yeh, wasn't suggesting we can't do it, just saying we may as well sack him.

or get him to clean the staff cars

My media chums are saying he has just been sacked!

You don't have any media chums.

Ron Atkinson? Jim Davidson? The ghost of Jade Goody?

[Snowflake Royal]

Well we're not sacking him the day before we play top of the league.

So another 3pts dropped.

[Royalwaster]

Well it might be his last game in charge - I prefer us to lose to the league leaders than to another team close to us in the table ...

[Snowflake Royal]

If he wasn't sacked for Fleetwood, it's unlikely he will be for Pompey.

I reckon he'll be gone before we play Derby though.
