Yeah, he's replied to me on twitter a couple of times. But I wouldn't ever ask him about where he lives or about his contract.

To be fair - if it bothered him he would not answer and de-friend him.

It doesn't seem to have been acknowledged that the players themselves are unlikely to sign for the club, without knowing who the manager is, and what his plans are...

I still find it amazing how the board haven't even phoned up the players to say they're waiting for a new manager before they start offering contracts. At least the players will know where they stand and can then decide whether they want to wait to see if they will be offered something.

I can understand entirely why they would wait, these players will be the high earners in the team and they won't want to offer them contracts if the new manager doesn't want them, but leaving them in the dark is ridiculous.

Is that what has happened? I find that very difficult to believe.
