If they weren't then they should have been, the point is really

that in the circumstances we were in (not under any particular time pressure to get rid) you should have your replacement pretty much in the bag before you sack Neil.

I suspect you will find Rowett is at Derby within 48 hours.

If you believe Balls (and as I keep being told they don't lie to us) then we have no plan and will get round to starting to look next week after we've announce the corporate structure.

Look its not the end of the world if Warburton and Rowett go elsewhere but it just, at the moment, seems to be another example of unplanned, reactive management of the club rather than part of any coherent strategy.
