The question is, when did BBM inform the club that he was going and did the club delay the announcement to deal with finer details, and crucially have the board identified potential replacements. In that the club has only a few weeks to appoint somebody, sign players and to take charge of pre-season activities. |  | |  |

It looks like he took training today from a video on social media. | |

If the club had delayed the announcement to, presumably, a time of their choosing, 8pm on Wednesday night seems a bit of an odd choice. |  |

Well as an outsider looking in my first reaction is, what an absolute c**t, takes over a team relatively safe in league 1, gets an extended contract for...absolutely nothing, gets the team relegated, gets decent players to extend their contract and then....leaves. Good riddance! | | | |

Probably needed time to speak,to each other and form their first thoughts and some sort of strategy.. Unless of course BBM got wind of a new "Director of Football" arriving and quit before they pushed him out and hence the request for compensation. Ie a reward for making room for someone new. |  | | |

Takes over a team relatively safe in league 1 ? Have you missed the last 4 seasons? | |

Aye, possibly. It just seems out of keeping with most official website announcements across all clubs. | |

To be honest, and I've expressed this view to a few people recently, I found it a bit odd how there were no comments or words from BBM when all those players were signing their new contracts recently.
Could be completely wide of the mark, but it stuck out to me.
EDIT: Nor has he been pictured on any of the training stuff this week. [Post edited 30 Jun 2021 21:01]

I agree with this analysis .
My concern was the complete lack of feedback from the return to training when other clubs were very quick to offer photo files of players back pre -season . It just seemed the football side of things was becoming secondary to other issues ? | | | |

Unless he is going somewhere and has promised to take some players with him, it seems BBM has shafted the players, too. This would certainly be cause for anyone to question the integrity of the bloke.
I was prepared to give him a chance if we could have played like we did at the end of last season but to bail out as he has done? Well good riddance and thanks for nothing Bazzer. |  |

I’m worried that the new board are not just new to us, but new to football leadership on the whole. They’ll have very few contacts in the game and will possibly be scrambling around trying to work out how/where to recruit a new manager from. I’m guessing it’s not a free add on Indeed. I do hope I’m wrong and no disrespect at all meant to the new board, but it is a worry. |  |

DB gone. BBM gone. Result IMHO
Sure there will be some splendid applicants for the managers job given that the club has returned to a responsibly managed modus operandi.
The self-serving vermin have left the building. We now have responsible custodians in charge. Learning the ropes, yes, but learning with the right intentions.
It is one month since the 5 hour marathon of AGM's and EGM's. Shareholders and fans have achieved a lot for the future benefit of the club in a month.
We are unique. It's our way of doing things, properly, for the club and the fans.

Maybe BBM felt he was incapable of coaching his team to play a more open, expansive type of football. This was, I heard, the mantra of the new board. None of that playing out from the back crap.
The biggest result this summer was the EGM and the 2nd best was Bottomley leaving, because one wouldn't have happened without the other. Today just feels like another good result.
Now to the nitty gritty. One man who has the knack of getting this club out of L2 the right way is KH. Is he available? Would he want to come? The fans would be split for sure. But, we need desperately to have some stability brought back to the playing side. There is stability now at board level, so now we must have the same on the pitch.
A sensible appointment to steady the ship. |  | | |

An appointment that would polarise the fanbase before a ball is kicked is far from a sensible appointment. [Post edited 1 Jul 2021 2:53]

Pretty much sums up where I'm at. We have hit the 'factory reset' button and losing a manager who had a 'monotonous' (in every sense) playing style, didn't look at where we were in the league and was incapable of in-game management cannot be considered a loss.
We need to replace him with a leader of men who can motivate and organise. The players didn't exactly run through brick walls for BBM in too many games and our defence was a laughing stock more often than not. Much like the running of the club, there has to be a better way of doing things this season. With a reduced budget, we were never going to progress with BBM at the helm. I won't miss his pointless possession based football and I won't miss his interviews.

Agreed, you can't ask to leave under contract and ask for compensation? I'm wondering if the new board have questioned the legality of Brian's new contract - if it was something agreed between BBM and just Bottomley and non of the other Directors knew about it? | |

Unless you have grounds for constructive dismissal -
footballing director remit making life untenable perhaps, or proposal to sell players without managerial approval. There’s every chance BBMs extended contract had all sorts of lovely (for him) clauses in it.
