mcmigo Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Not sure why people wetting their pants re the OP from harkes was clearly from a good source, guy clearly was close to job at one point. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it will be the very opposite of credible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not mention it on here. I’m glad I did neither. I would be skint and look like a knob. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When no one else even mentioned him? got told on 6th Jan. local journos picked up on 15th. I really dont give a shhyyte what you think tbh. Pfft very shoddy info Come on mate are you even ITK if you dont name your source, your relationship to them, where you first met, where they live, what days they put their bins out and what their favourite meal is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it will be the very opposite of credible. People get fed information and fair play to the people sticking their neck on the lines and putting it on the forum. In thebizzle and Harkes case it is clear Cook and Ivic have both been approached. Hasn’t come through for one reason or another. But both probably came from a sound place and they felt confident enough to share on here. At least it gave us something to talk about during lockdown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it gave us something to talk about during lockdown It's one thing to say: 'we've held talks with Ivić', and quite another to say: 'Done deal. Ivic New boss. 2 year deal. Announced Monday', though, isn't it? There are still 12 hours or so for the latter to be proven true of course, but if it's proven false as the post re: Cook being appointed was, you have to wonder where the duff info. is coming from, don't you? Maybe it's people getting carried away and embellishing the bits of information they're given in an attempt to appear 'ITK'? If that's the case, all it does is undermine their credibility though, doesn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve a lot of desperate people on here that would do anything to pull something to bits it goes with their negative outlook Personally I welcome a bit of inside info even the ones that some people make up I don’t hold anyone to them it’s nice to have discussion Why anybody would act like they hold you to it like your making the appointment is beyond me but that’s the stupidity and maturity of some for what it’s worth I still think Thompson will be in charge for at least another 2/3 games and it wouldn’t surprise me if he sees the season out doesn’t strike me that chansiri has got someone he’s happy with thats willing to accept yet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbupperthongowl Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I wonder if part of the recruitment process asks the candidates who they would bring in now to ensure we stay up? If so it would enable our recruitment team to validate them and have some informal conversations so we aren't on the back foot should one of them agree to take the job when the window is closing.....if we planned ahead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way there is an element of truth behind it for sure. Still might happen who knows? Trying to guess the chairman is an impossible task. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chansiri wants various managers but they won't accept on terms he is offering. Not necessarily the cash but the way they are expected to operate. Chansiri will not change the way he is so it's got to be a yes man who is prepared to do it the Chansiri way. Don't hold your breath. That’s what I meant chansiri has found any he wants that will accept why would they I’d imagine for most managers and coaches it’s not all about the money ( sure it’s a factor ) but it’s about what impact and success they can have. It’s what they build a career on and if they don’t think they can be successful under the constraints and terms of the role why would they accept. Only one we’re going to get is managers who haven’t really achieved anything or on the decline 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we were waiting for Everton to batter us so new managers first game wouldn't be a big loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
