If they fall through they know we will be waiting as a safety net. Sounds about right 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross is never going to go there and work under Strachan but Thomson, who played for him, might well do. You could be right about the courier journo, but I was just saying that I saw the 2 names linked was Ross and Strachans son and not seen the KT links 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been going too long Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Gary Locke was the outstanding candidate, he gave a great interview and told us some great stories about the hertz and promised he has been practicing on football manager and will do better this time Edited May 16, 2022 by Been going too long 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Board will need at least a few days to shortlist, interview and assess the applicants. There could be some decent candidates that were not on their radar. Act in haste and repent at leisure - as the Jags did after appointing Gary Caldwell! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they gave applicants nearly 2 weeks to apply, most will have applied in the first week so I think they should be a bit down the road to this appointment tbh and a couple of teams looking for managers so we need to get the finger oot imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much will depend on whether the shortlisted candidates are free agents or in post. The top target's club may not wish to release him from his contract or is demanding too much compensation. Recruitment is a risky business and even big clubs have trouble getting who they want. Eddie Howe strung Celtic along for months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
