Jones won’t quit nor should he if the bird want to fire him let them stand up and be counted for their recruitment policy and let the chief executive do the honourable thing and resign as a result of repeated recruitment failure in the most significant role . Would that bird be a Phoenix? Considering you mention fire. H

Now I'm not saying any of it is 100% correct but because of whom it has come from I have decided to share it, make of it what you will. Nathan Jones is on the verge of quitting and Chris Hughton is lined up to replace him, apparently this is nailed on and will happen very soon (the next week or so). I can't be arsed to go into all the details that I was told but that's the crux of that.Adam Davies has had a massive fall out with Jones as he was promised the no 1 spot in goal but when no one came in for Butland in the summer it pissed on that fire, and Davies threw his toys out of his pram. Butland and Allen had assurances when they signed extended contracts that they if fit they would always be picked for the first team for league matches, this is causing some bitterness in the dressing room as you can imagine. Ryan Woods wants to leave because he doesn't feel like he's being treated fair. Gouranga. If you really had "gossip" (hate that word), surely you would want to expand on that as all of the other things you have posted are rumours which have been thrown around on here for weeks. Bullshit.

I guess what is new is Hughton to replace Nathan "nailed on and will happen very soon (the next week or so)"The certainty and the timing. Personally I don't believe it will happen but I don't recall anyone putting 100% certainty on it and a timescale.

I've heard similar rumours. Also been told that our favoured "bean counter" hasn't been around too much as it's been suggested he should keep a low profile and stay away from the club. I've also been told, though, that he's out in the Far East on business as his job role is about to change (along with a number of other roles behind the scenes). Tony Scholes was not in the Far East last week, that's for sure. I know this as he was in a meeting at my place of work...somewhere...somewhere in the north of Stoke on Trent (alright). Please tell me you work at Vale😉.

I sincerely hope you're right Albert. This is a big club, and needs a higher profile manager than the last three. Hughton would do for me, but how on earth he could get this shower playing, is beyond me! Miracle needed!

I would say it’s highly likely and having seen a picture of Jones at Leek last night I’d say he’d be better off out of here because he looks ill What picture is this? Just one on Twitter yesterday,I’ll try and find it

Sadly it seems clear that this is now a very tough job , Jones for all his effort seems to be floundering and the next couple of league games don't look the type to bring much in the way of points although as always i live in hope .
Assuming things don't pick up it will need a strong experienced manager probably to turn it around . I thought Jones had worked with Hughton at Brighton before so maybe they could work together unless Hughton wants to be hands on .
If we could attract a manager of his calibre in the state we are in we should count ourselves lucky I'd say .

Wow, he looks down in the dumps. Poor fucker. Not surprised at all. He's won 0 games this season, a lot of us (myself included) think he should have gone already and everything he's tried hasn't worked. He looks like he needs a good few weeks in the Bahamas.

I thought Albert's lad was mates with Nick Powell. Perhaps this is where the gossip has come from.

I feel for the bloke, married in the summer and now under incredibly pressure, must make more a difficult start for the newly weds. He really doesn't look well at all..might be best for all parties to take him out of the firing squad.

Why would NJ walk when his reputation will be in tatters if and when he does go and he knows he'll be back down to league one next? He'll be needing the money.

Butland not signed a extended contract.... 5. Butland and Allen have both been dropped this season. 6. why do you feel the need to lie?

Ive read this from the viewpoint of this being a credible original post from a long time credible poster. The scenario / situations described, fit reality NEATLY and by the way
- the manager looks absolutely awful - distraught -weight loss etc etc --not good
but sadly, unsurprising.
its his unfolding disaster too now.

I actually posted a thread about the managers health the other day, I requested it to be deleted due to one or two knob heads on here spouting their bile towards me, I stand by what I posted though I have serious concerns regarding his state of mind, in my opinion he needs to be taken out of the firing line or having a mentor who can take some of the pressure off him. Personally I think he is miles out of his depth and has made some terrible decisions since taking over but the owners /board do have a duty of care towards him concerning his health.
