McGhee is among 6 who have been approached for the Port Vale job

Quotes from local paper:

 

The experienced McGhee has previously managed Leicester City in the top flight and won promotions with Reading, Millwall and Brighton.

 

McGhee, who has also managed Wolves and was sacked by Aberdeen last month, said:

 

“All I want to do is work and Vale are an attractive club,  because they’re doing so well.

 

“I know Micky Adams well and I will talk to him about the job – I’m open-minded and, of course, I’m interested.

 

“I know that part of the country having managed Wolves and I’m looking around for opportunities.

 

“It’s not just a case of going for every job, it’s important to go for the right fit – I want to look people in the eye and say ‘I really want to do this job’.

 

“I’ve never worked in League Two, but I’ve got teams out of League One in the past.”

Poor sods

Hes never worked in the Blue Square premier either....yet

McGhee added, "Of course, this is unless the Celtic job comes up.  Celtic are better than you lot, eh? And if that falls through then you lads can be my safety net. "

 

"How about that?" continued McGhee. "You lot.  Nae as good as rashellic?"

 

"How are you boys aff for full backs?" McGhee added, beating this particular horse to a bloody pulp. "'Cause we'll need to get rid o them, but."

Arsehole.

On appointment at AFC, he said he wanted to manage the top teams that he'd played for.

 

That's Aberdeen struck off the wish list, Celtic of course will always remain, Newcastle, Hamburg, Morton and Bristol City still to go.

They're going to have 6 managers?

 

:o

Why change the previous winning tactic, 6 defenders, 6 managers. Easy ;)

Don't know why you all think Mcghee is a bad manager, just look at his Wikipedia record before 2009.

Best of luck to him.  Dons legend.

Good luck to both parties.

Exactly.

I'm hoping for him or Martin Allen to get it, both should increase the chances of Cheltenham getting a play-off or automatic promotion place., y'know.

Craig Brown should start sounding out the Vale full backs and offload a few dozen of our surplus strikers.

Looks like he didn't impress in the interview, he's not on the final shortlist of 3.

Probaby good for both of them!

Good luck to both parties.

they will need it.

You know. He probably just referred them to wikipedia. With a few minor edits pre interview. You know.

Jim Gannon got it.

Jim Gannon got it.
