I think we may lose both by the end of this season. Taylor is improving his stock at a higher level, DC is performing minor miracles and neither can be going unnoticed

I guess the next few months will prove crucial but I do think this board has much much more ambition and money than we've ever had, my hunch is get the ground being built, and they'll both stay, much more delays and I can see MT going, not so sure about DC

I'm worried DC will go, November & December are the two big sacking months of the season, if we are a top 8 team at Xmas then i think a championship club could come in with a serious offer for him. I just hope by xmas the diggers will be at the training ground, and the UWE will be 100% confirmed and signed off, which hopefully will be enough to keep him here.

Why wouldnt these clubs go for some of teams that are above us though, tjink we worty ourselves a bit. DC and MT both signed 2/3 year contract extensions at the start of the seasons, we are in a good position. |

While some on here may claim it's some tactical ploy by DC those looking at him as a manager will see it as a tactical weakness. |

Cause those teams have not already had back to back promotions and some will have bigger budgets than ours. A lot of our players were in the conference 2 years ago and DC has improved them as players and got them playing as a team. Even Lines was struggling to get in Port Vales team and was on the decline. Other clubs will take notice, but hopefully we can keep him. |

(leaving MT to one side for a minute), I firmly believe managers and clubs work best when they are best suited to each other.
You can't programme this into any Fifa module. Although, I must admit, I have absolutely no scientific evidence to support this!
It's just I feel DC and his management team suit the fabric and culture of us, and vice versa. And also, so does Wael.
It also goes without saying, not every manager in the world would suit us.
Sure, there is nothing wrong with ambition and trying to better yourself, and I'm sure no one would ever be vocal against such a move, but the next one DC makes will be crucial. Bigger doesn't necessarily mean better (according to my girlie)..

We'd be 7 pts worse off without recent late goals |

MT must certainly have a bid activation clause in his most recently signed contract. Hopefully it will be seven figures(?)..
Maybe, just maybe MT will see our potential and opt to stay with us.

But if they're 2nd bottom of the championship they wont care But if you're 2nd bottom of any table if you concede first your natural reaction is 's**t, here we go again' not 'it's not a problem there is plenty of time left', we have 2+ years of confidence behind us so cn cope with an early setback. Think it will be an important consideration for anyone signing DC. |

I know DC signed a 3yr one but i haven't seen how long Matty's contract is,someone was saying it was only one year. |

EG 3 - 1 down with 5 minutes to go. Status of the opposition could also be a factor in the coming to an answer. Apart from that - a point is a point (or possibly a replay if it is a Cup game of some sort). Hope that helps the debate.....maybe not  |

So would a team second from bottom of the championship prefer a 3-3 or 0-0. There is an argument for both. Hopefully we'll keep the miracle man

I would be surprised if Taylor is still here on Feb 1st. I'm shocked no-one took a gamble on him when he was free in the summer. Yes he probably lacks an extra yard or two of pace to be an all round Championship striker but he has the technical ability to link the play between midfield and attack and you feel confident that anything that falls to him in the 18 yard box will be a goal. His confidence is sky high and he's come a million miles from the 4th choice Forest Green striker who couldn't finish his dinner and was rolling around on the floor at the first sign of contact. I imagine there is a release clause in his contract, which means will get far less than he's worth, but I guess we'll get some cash and have had the bonus of an extra 6 months of his goals.
I can't see DC going anywhere, purely because Championship clubs seldom go for lower league managers, when journeymen like Bruce and McClaren are available. I'm sure the likes of O'Dismal, 'arry, Ollie, Cotteril, Pearson, Jackett etc will all be infront of DC for any potential jobs.
