From Kent Teagues twitter yesterday:-

"Guess there's little value you knowing #LOFC will announce our newest Head Coach Tue or Wed since there seem to be no football secrets. Just be aware conventional wisdom did not predict either of the two gentlemen in the pic.(JE and RE) Cryptic Kent say maybe not this time either. #OurClub"

Tomorrow it is and maybe with a twist yet to come.

Can't wait for the appointment.

I see OFF is doing his usual I knew routine and was told by someone who can't keep a secret. Yet look back through his tweets and he's saying Calderwood! Get your hard earned on it.

Unbelievable Jeff.

The suspense is killing me and the cryptic clues are mindbottling. Can he not just let us know it won't be Adams, that way I might get a decent nights sleep for the first time in weeks.

Come on Comrade Marxist Max, it's the worst kept secret in football, nothing cryptic about it.

I've heard on the grapevine that they are waiting for a spot in Roger's and until one comes available the press release has to wait.

It's all about image these days.

I wouldn’t have a clue as to who applied so I can’t give a considered opinion.

Can everyone just report byways1's posts for obvious trolling?

Mods aren't doing anything about this but if they have to deal with reports all the time they will have to.

We didn't give a definitive date by when we'd have a manager in place. So there is no delay.

Actually Teague did. But that apart a few days is neither here nor there. He will be in the dugout on Saturday and I dare say even though no announcement has been made he is already doing his homework.

ML said in his "interview" in the 1881 Suite pre-match on Saturday that there were 50 applicants, but some then withdrew their application before he chose 6 that he interviewed and he passed a final 4 to the Board of Directors. Russell Slade did not apply.
