I reckon the handling of the matter has been very poor however it looks like the Managers role in the future will be massively different from what it has been in the past and isn't one that would suit Jim.
I want Jim's reputation as the best Manager we have ever had to remain intact and his talent utilised by those who will benefit from it.
I'm not going to cut my nose off to spite my face though. I support County and will wish the next Manager well regardless of who he is.
