New Head Coach

Do you know if we’ve decided on a main target or are they onto their 15th interview?

 

Maric and Marti?

 

Hope Scout is correct because what I’ve been told tonight is the complete opposite. I’m praying it’s not true but Dodds and Proctor are preparing to take the start of pre season, just a whisper but no reason to believe where it’s came from is lying of course.

 

Agreed. Cracking manager and they may just stop up now.

 

There’s no ****ing chance we would be that incompetent surely

 

I'd imagine that would have to be true, be foolish not to prepare surely even if it's close you never know what could happen

 

I wouldn’t be so sure. Nothing would surprise me with Sunderland currently.

 

would not be shocked if we was with Speakman like but like everyone we all hoping for the best

 

Even if a new manager came in by the end of the week, I'd imagine there was already a early pre season plan done and prepared

 

Very possible Dodds and Proctor are making plans…would be foolish not to have them do that until we appoint a new coach, just in case.

It’s possible @Scout73 and @ChunkFTM are both right here.

 

Makes sense

 

They’ll definitely be preparing for preseason. It would be irresponsible not to. It’s not their job to find the manager so all they can do is plan in his absence.

 

Not having a go but why the outrage? Of course there will contingency plans if we are still trying to get a manager over the line. It’s hardly groundbreaking that our interim head coach is planning on early pre season due to there currently being no head coach in position.

 

Praying for Marti or Maric tomorrow. We can still hope!

 

I read it as they’d be taking over. I ignored basic logic for a moment

 

as the saying goes it is the hope i can't stand

 

**** it, if we don't have anyone by Friday, I'll do it.

I spent years on Champ Man building Champions League winning sides and developing young prospects (I favour a 4-3-3 with a high press).

I've read dozens of management books including Carlo Ancelotti's quiet leadership and I've read Moneyball and Soccernomics.

But most importantly, I'm willing to work with Dodds and Proctor.

I don't want to relocate though so I might just travel up two days a week and let the coaches do the rest.

 

Kompany is a very different prospect.

 

And that's the heart of the matter. Bang on.

 

They have to prepare pre season regardless. Can’t leave it to chance whether we have someone in by then, only for it not to happen and all the lads come back for training - only for Dodds & Proctor to go “get yourselves away, we didn’t plan owt.”
