IF you mean Bowyer (lol), I have a feeling we are stuck with him for a quite a while yet .. Sandy needs to get a positive and realistic plan in place for a successful succession
The interesting thing is whether a new manager is appointed before the takeover happens
Indeed if the takeover is imminent, I'm surprised Marcus Evans didn't leave it for the new owners to make the decision
Maybe this is at their request... Do it now so they can maximise their chances of chasing that last Play-Off spot - If Evans had waited then their own season may equally petter out and the parties taking over may then either walk away or even reduce their asking price

Always thought it was an odd choice - Their rivals old manager.
But Ipswich have just won their last 2 games & not far short of the play-offs given their games in hand. However, it seems like manager & chairman have different views how to get there

It's awkward timing when you look at results on the pitch, as they've just beaten Doncaster and Hull, and seemed to have turned a corner! On a ppg basis from being behind us they're now a long way ahead of us

Having grown up in north Essex/very near Suffolk I always keep an eye on Ipswich Town. The fans feel that Lambert has been on his way out for the last couple of weeks and the upturn in results is because the rest of the coaching staff have taken over the running of the first team, with Lambert effectively pushed to the side.

Now let's see who's the better manager?
Colchester United have appointed Wayne Brown as interim first-team coach after Steve Ball's sacking on Tuesday.
Ex-U's player Brown, 43, is the manager of Isthmian League North Division side Maldon & Tiptree but their season is suspended because of the pandemic.

I missed Barrow sacking Michael Jolley, the 2nd person they've appointed and sacked this season!
Please don't appoint him Thomas, don't think i could cope with any "Henry Out" chants : - )

But don't worry - Bows will lead us out of exile & into League 2.

Weird that Doncaster have stuttered in recent weeks though
Andy Butler will take over as Doncaster manager for the rest of the season. He currently manager of their women's team plus an academy coach
Sheff Weds are a much bigger club than Doncaster and will no doubt pay significantly more as well.
