    Have we got any proof KS wasn't included in head coach search or are we just assuming?

    I think Speakmans relationship with Dodds compromises this therefore KLD is the counterbalance. Get Speakman doing what he’s good at. I’m like a broken record but I’d just add a first team decision maker to the mix rather than lose Speakman’s strengths

    Rotterdam mate it's right near de kuip, heerenveen is a lovely stadium aswell, they have an old school English pub style under the stand and have a band an that on after games. They know how to do there football.

    I get what you're saying, but I don't necessarily think that the head coach has to be recruited by the DoF for them to have a good working relationship.

    I agree even if KLD 100% trusts Speakman it can reasonably be expected that he has an interest and input into who the new head coach is going to be.

    Alright if he takes over the decision and disregards Speakman that's not good but it's not terrible that he is interested and involved. I'm sure he is interested and involved in other plans to improve things at the club why would this be different

    He isn't a sign the cheque owner that Short was!

    I’ll make sure I’m taken there next visit mate.

    Aye I read a piece about Heerenveen not too long back told you about all of that. Groningen meant to be decent as well but they in the second now I think (may have gone back up)

    Twente always looks a bit tasty as well.

    What the falk have reacted to the Copley tweet with a big cheesey grin so that confirms it for me, can we all now start talking about our favourite Dutch beers, the Belgians went down a storm

    But @Blond Bombshell 's statement was that KLD is running the search and KS is nowhere near it and is being replaced after the transfer window (I dont think that is the case). Thats no way to run a football club.

    Because to remove him as soon as the season ended would leave us worse off. He'll work to the benefit of the club and handover to the new DoF in due course. New manager and players being higher priority in my opinion.

    has there been any actual link with Jansen, anywhere, other than his odds coming down because social media has jumped on it and continue to?

    So who is picking that coach and them players? Jansen and Still both didn't do recruitment at AZ and Reims so it shouldn't be them. Is it KLD? That would be bad. Is it Harvey? Is it Speakman who's leaving after making them decisions and doesn't have the trust of the owner?

    They've got some interesting traditional beer types, like kuit, but as far as I know they haven't got the same breadth as Belgium. I think their modern craft beer scene takes a lot of influence from Belgian styles. Jansen is a let down in this regard.
