Who are the 'other directors'?
Stinks of the weird 6(?) point improvement manifesto they issued to Edmo.

I’m worried about the “not one standout candidate” comment

Looks like we’ve got 11 contracted players, 4 of them we are trying to offload. That’s a tad worrying.

Seems like it won't be Nicholson after all. Looking like another season of uncertainty.

Can see Andrew appointing himself in a Michael Knighton/David Icke sort of way and letting god and the lizards help him pick the side.

Holker Street is getting more like Phoneix Nights
Brian Potter has handed the interviews over to Gerry Saintt Clair who says to Spencer he has not the got the job till Spencer says he comes with Government Grants

We could do with a millionaire to improve the ground and build a team to get us into the Football League.

With the signing of the players when no manager in control leads me to believe holt will be named manager, who would want to come to a club who has just signed players he may not want & we know PC won't want to "waste" money on signing more players than he needs too
Just my opinion

Any manager moving to a football club will take on players he hasn't chosen.

It's the nature of the role.
