where does the club go from here?
"lets concentrate on the football until the end of the season. Everything can wait til the season is over" Ilyas Khan on completion of the takeover.
or words to that effect anyway. We know that IK wants the share issue to be sorted out so I would expect that an announcement to happen within a couple of weeks. So get your purses at the ready .....
The squad and Coley/Bell situation needs to be resolved pronto .... If Coley has been offered another job and intends to take it we'll hear about it tomorrow/the day after at the latest. Coley can't be allowed to dictate which players he wants to offer new terms to or not and then disappear a day or two later. If Coley intends to leave then what price Jimmy Bell staying on? I cant think of a better option in our price bracket than giving the job to Coley's trusted lieutenant. And that would possibly prevent half the squad following him. But of course the best option is that Coley turns his phone off and goes nowhere.
A hundred and one thinks need improving at the club but much will depend on where IK intends to go with his vision for the new stadium. If that is still a goer then I'd like to see an announcement made soon. The club is rightly disappointed this morning, but yet strangley we are still high on the crest of a wave. Ilyas needs to use that platform and push the club further into the positive spotlight with his plans. He has grand plans for sure and now would be an ideal time to capitalise on them. It could be instrumental in persuading certain players and staff to renew their contracts.
