I don’t think I’ve hidden the fact I want Rosenior well. We may get the best person by bad management. What is fairly clear now though is there is something in our offer that isn’t working. Whether it’s the people involved, recruitment plan , budget, pay, staffing or a mix, some red lines seem to be losing good people.
How is it clear? If you believe the ITK’s Still accepted the job until Lens showed an interest. Some say Maric accepted it before that. Then we’ve no idea if Jansen has been offered it, as the Alkmaar fan above says, he’s interviewed for an awful lot of jobs now…

IMO we have to give the the club the chance to get the appointment right, I know recently they don't have a very good record in this area. All the linked names had positive and negative aspects on their CV. Whoever we appoint as long as they are decent at coaching at championship level of football, we'll be ok as long as they are given the correct tools to compete in our league.

mark my words - bookamark it etc - Rosenior wont last the season if its him - only safc could go get someone who was sacked from his last job for playing boring football and failing to meet targets

same old English style football, pass backwards and sideways



Jansen - good appointment
Still - good appointment
Cifuntes good appointment
Knutsen - good appontment
Roy - good appointment
Rhol - good appointment
Maric - good appointment
Svensson - good appointment
Dionisi - good appontment


would even take the likes of - papszun or wicky - Vranken who have had success

Cooper would be very good
Jansen, svensson, cooper and dionisi all sacked from their last roles due to underperforming as well

I agree with Wicky but no one knows who is going to be appointed.

Just wait and see

FYI Cooper’s football isn’t the best
 
Well it’s been quite clear Still was our priority and the evidence we were after Jansen looked pretty concrete so there’s 2. Svensson was also due for talks before he committed to another contract at Union wasn’t he? So now we’re onto at least the 4th.. Wasn’t there also talk of Rohl but we wouldn’t pay his compensation?

Not saying all of those were manageable but if we’re talking preferred choices then all of those fit that criteria.

Also totally forgot about Maric

But regarding Still, people on here heard that it was all agreed. He got himself a new agent who then started touting him around clubs and he supposedly then turned us down. No one really knows who's on the list of head coaches that we've actually talked to
 
Lets hoping we get an announcement in the nxt couple days, the Friday statement makes me think its close - obviously it's just words so until someone is announced thats all it is

I get folk worrying about things, we are all worried about it, until someone comes in

I dont get folk saying we are down to our 5th or 6th candidate as none of us know who were the preferred targets - but each to there own

The process has taken far too long but will be worth it if we get the right manager. Ill judge the process more when we see how the new manager gets on

Enjoy the rest of your weekend fellas n lets see what the new week brings
The worry with the Friday statement would be that it was made because they thought they had their man in Jansen and something has gone awry at the eleventh hour meaning it’s back to the drawing board.

Who knows though. Hopefully it’s not that.

How do you know any of those on your list would be good appts, any of them could come in and be poor.
 
What are you expecting? KLD to come out and publicly name every candidate we’ve tried and failed to get?
Of course im not but i also dont believe every rumour i hear online about possibly targets

Like i said ill judge the appointment when its made as to whether im excited or not by it. Ill not be saying stuff like 'getting our 5th choice' etc. as i dont know who is on the list and who the club were targeting
 
Sorry mate, of course we can praise what’s gone on inside the club, it’s already happened. Nobody is praising anything that hasn’t happened, we aren’t like you fannies knocking things that hasn’t happened.
There's plenty of things that have happened that are worth praise and criticism.

I see plenty of praise and criticism for things that haven't happened and I don't mind it, I do mind people saying you can do one but not the other. Makes no sense.

Why is there no middle ground on this board?

I wouldn't bother trying to talk sense, some have decided we are down to 5th choice based on pure speculation of who our targets are

Maybe it is, we will find out soon enough

I dont think they would make an announcement like that unless they were sure they were close.

Prehab mentioned 2 being interviewed so it could be that they have got the other one (if jansen was the other 1 prehab said got interviewed)
