Next manager

[irnbru1903]

Soundbites and platitudes. I expect nothing less from our chairman. What he meant to say is that he hasn't got a clue what the fk is going on. All part of the 3 year plan.

Sorry man, disagree, good update. Good managers are hard to find and we need to get this right, which in itself requires luck and timing. Saying something but nothing in a way, but least it’s an update. All he can say, and better than silence, you. Can’t say more when things aren’t set.

dont disagree too, starting with us midseason is bit of a shit show. Starting in the summer, build a squad, a preseason is the ideal for a coach. If it’s horneland for example, can work with us on recruitment prior to formally being hired, but has a voice in squad building. Realistically, we are not in a good spot right now and hard for a manager to start right now and go forwards immediately. Shit situation, but is what it is.

It is all a result of poor recruitment and premature punting without any succession planning. There is no responsibility taken in that fob off. As you say it is a shit situation and it shows no sign of improving.

Yes, poor recruitment for a while. Hopefully the penguin helps in that area.

Jimmy had offered to resign twice apparently, maybe there’s more to the timing of him leaving. At the same time, our priority was not on a manager succession plan, but adding the penguin and restructuring that side of things first.

It's Horneland but for obvious reasons he can't come out and say that.

Learn to read between the lines.

If Horneland, surely the unforeseen circumstances would have been in play, when the announcement was supposedly imminent 10 days ago.

Exactly. 
 

It’s either Horneland and the unforeseen circumstances are new, or we actually have nobody lined up at the moment.

It’s Horneland they want and the “unforeseen” circumstances have arisen since the Lutz “imminent” statement 10 odd days ago.

Kind of what “unforeseen” means like.

Its a update statement, its not particularly enlightening, beyond clarifying (for me anyway) the points in my first paragraph above.

Just gotta hope our recruitment - on and off the pitch - gets 100% better starting right now…

So it's going to be Horneland in June as expected. Happy enough with that.

If Horneland had agreed to come, then they absolutely could come out and say it.

He's the number one choice but nothing has been agreed or signed. That's the reality.

No they wouldn't because Horneland has his hands contractually tied for now. He'd lose a lot of pay off money from St Etienne if he announces he's signed for a new club already.

He'll arrive in June. Be patient.

Colgate says a lot of blah blah blah but at the end of the day he said sweet fk all (another tw@t who should be a fkn politician) 

The update is there is no update
