Jim was dismissed on Thursday evening just less than a week ago. MM says in his statement that he was approached by SW on the Sunday (one working day later).
SW says on COWS
“As fans might expect we were inundated with interest in the role, from a variety of backgrounds, from highly experienced been-there-done-it types, to fresh thinking emerging profiles.
So SR, along with other prospective Managers, applied for the job were subsequently considered / interviewed and an appointment put in place whilst the previous Managers seat was still warm?
SW's comments regarding the Clubs statement are baffling. Is it unreasonable to expect something more than subjective unclear corporate bullshit as the reason for jettisoning our most successful Managers ever? SW says that it was done so as a mark of respect to Jim and everyone at the Club (but not the supporters though)!!!
It's quite clear that the club is a different animal now. I wish Simon Rusk all the luck in the world. I just wonder where he fits in the structure.
