New Head Coach

...and that there is the madness of football recruitment. Chelsea sack Potter and (eventually) relace him with Maresca. Leicester appoint Potter

Then people try and tell me recruiting a football manager is as simple as appointing a General Manager in an office

 

...and me. I was bereft and homeless for 10 mins or so. OTR is no compensation!

 

Nearly had to remember my password from over 10 years ago.

 

But your vast knowledge of all things recruitment certainly put me in my place eh

 

Think it's Maric like

 

Is Anthony Barry with Portugal at the Euros?

 

I hope

 

yes

 

I dunno why the idea of him gets me excited but the British names linked left me completely flat

 

Not excited by him either but out of the names which have been banded about hes got to be in the top 3 with Still and Cifuentes.

Cifuentes would have been my pick

 

Same here mate still hoping it’s marti

 

Four days offline while at sea and just logged on to find we still haven't appointed anyone!

What's the gossip and who is favourite?

 

The vast majority dont have a clue and those that do are keeping quiet.
Hopefully some news later this week.
You haven't missed much

 

Cifuentes, Maric or Digard for me (in that order). Be a bit underwhelmed with any of the other ones linked. Whoever it is they get my full backing though until they give me reason not to.

 

I still can't see it. Bayern Munich have a massive and dedicated media and fan following and all their reputable sources are only reporting that Maric is going to be a pivotal part of their coaching team under Kompany. Considering that in conjunction with the fact that there's not really a single report from anyone properly linking him with our job and it seems that it's more just wishful thinking on behalf of our fans that's giving it any sort of momentum at all.

 

Or should that be the no hope?

 

Apart from the club actually appointing someone, what else are they meant to do? Dodds is still interim head coach and therefore will have been planning pre season whilst we look to appoint someone.

@ChunkFTM has passed on this info on in good faith but it’s not really groundbreaking is it?

 

There's always hope!
That's why I can't stand it

 

The rumour is there’s time to squeeze in more outrage and knicker twisting.

 

You been though the Bermuda Triangle mate? We've had six managers since the Will Still debacle many years ago, couple of champions Leauge wins and won the premier league twice.
