Imagine a scenario where a press conference is called for 4pm at Beckenham this afternoon.
A grim faced Parish is sitting there flanked by Hodgson and Freedman.
Parish announces that Hodgson has tendered his resignation…..but the club has refused it and Hodgson has instead signed a 2 year extension.
This message board collapses as a result.

I don't understand how a person's position can be considered untenable but they can carry on because there's no replacement.

If finding a replacement is so difficult couldn't Freedman step in temporarily? Roy is effectively a lame duck so surely DF couldn't be any worse? Is there anyone else within the club that could step in?

I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything.

The whole relationship between owners, management and Freedman for that matter is broken. The way they rely on Roy and the way he treats the signings they make is embarrassing.

If this is all true surely Roy has to go? It would completely undermine his position with the players and staff if they knew he was only there because the club couldn't find anyone else. I think that's it though and we'll get an announcement fairly soon. I said yesterday I expected him to be gone within 48 hours and Cooper taking over by the weekend. I still think that will happen. If it doesn't surely the board have to say something as this is getting ridiculous. Do you back him or not. Draw a line under this for everyone's sake.

Probably wishful thinking on someone's part.
