Lets concentrate on Play Offs and deal with the Buckle saga afterwards.

I read that as he is finished with Torquay at the end of the season.

I read that as more of a prod at our board in terms of give the backing i am asking for and i will stay.

What i will say is this speculation is not going to help with our play-off chances ,regardless of whether the team gets to the play-off final or not,we are not going to have long before us fans find out one way or the other,so for the moment lets leave it be.

The 'Buckle Saga' is in the National Media, so us refusing to acknowledge it on this board would be quite pointless surely?

Sounds very much as though he considers his 'apprenticeship' to be complete, and he's ready to take the next step. It's a shame he feels the need to comment on these things at this time though. Should be playing those questions with a straight bat - forward defensive.

Linked with the Swindon Town job up here in the Bristol Evening Post. No great Suprise I suppose.

Instead he appears to be flirting with slamming over mid-on. Not promsing words from him by any means...
