Someone will have to look it up because I may be wrong

But I think the sequence of events was:

Doncaster and Munby announce decision to step down, but Munby remained on the board long enough for there to be a quorum to confirm the managerial appointments. So yes, they were looking for new board members at the same time as they were confirming the three wise monkeys in their jobs.

What an absolute joke our club has become (NCFC) - Ben, Aug 14, 19:25:42
- if delia had her way, no chance gunn would have been fired (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 14, 19:27:17
  - indeed. But anything that ever happens is more proof that Delia is inept, in Ben's world. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Aug 14, 19:27:54
    - So signing 12 players on long contacts then sacking the manager is a good business model? (NCFC) - Ben, Aug 14, 19:30:51
      - you just wait and see, we'll be back in the premiership in 2 seasons (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Jul 18, 23:47:14
    - well she hardly comes out of this looking good does she (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:30:24
      - today? Don't think today tells us much if anything about Delia (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Aug 14, 19:30:57
        
        it was a 'unanimous decision" according to the statements (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:34:08
        
        that's just them taking their collective responsibility (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Aug 14, 19:50:43
        
        could be, may also be that it was a unanimous decision (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:51:58
        
        indeed, i'm not saying that it definitely wasn't, i just wouldn't hold anything by that pa (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Aug 14, 19:55:28
        
        yep fair enough (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:59:04
        
        just what i was going to post (n/m) (NCFC) - grants_cold_finger, Aug 14, 19:35:17
        
        Sure. But to my mind sacking Gunn wasn't the error. Appointing him was (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Aug 14, 19:35:10
        
        The error was confirming the appointment after Charlton (NCFC) - Chester Drawers, Aug 14, 19:38:27
        
        yeah, that would've been the logical thing to do (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:39:57
        
        Someone will have to look it up because I may be wrong (NCFC) - Chester Drawers, Aug 14, 19:43:04
        
        if true then that would be a very unwise thing to do (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:46:11
        
        Timeline (NCFC) - Chester Drawers, Aug 14, 19:54:53
        
        well, that was a silly thing to do wasn't it (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 20:01:44
        
        oh totally agree, but you might expect her to stick with her decision (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:37:59
        
        But supposing what I speculated about the other day really did happen (NCFC) - Chester Drawers, Aug 14, 19:40:24
        
        that's quite a plausible scenario (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:44:25
        
        He's come into to be a proper CE I assume (NCFC) - Chester Drawers, Aug 14, 19:46:06
        
        I assume the same and I'd think that was both the idea of appointing him (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 14, 19:48:19
    - hopefully it's a change of attitude at the club (NCFC) - SCC 28, Aug 14, 19:28:46
