nzlatic Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 When Scholes got the job I was much more optimistic about the future. Not necessarily because of him as a coach/manager as that was an unknown, but because of his status and that I didn't think he'd take the job if the conditions weren't right. What happens next is key - if we hire another desperado (an old timer desperate to get back into the game, or a newbie desperate for his first job) then that confirms we're in big trouble. For me, if the owner is serious then he throws everything at Steve Evans to try and get him. But I can't see how he has the funds for that type of manager or the team they'd expect at all.

al_bro Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I wonder if Priest has turned down the opportunity to manage the team temporarily now that Wild has taken over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 You have to feel for Wild, he has to do whatever the bullying owner says as he has kids, mortgage and bills to pay, he can’t risk getting on the wrong side of him. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticMark Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I think some of the Bet Victor odds have just been copied and pasted from a couple of months ago! Some shortish odds for a few managers who have only been in their current jobs for a a matter of weeks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evans would be going purple with rage at any interference. I think he wouldn’t even last as long as Scholes. No self respecting manager would put up with interference from the owner or his brother. They must be absolute idiots if they really are interfering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How true that is, I have no idea. It could be PW is used to things going wrong in the background at the club like bills not being paid and playing players he hasn't brought in or seen before with the youths. These things probably won't niggle him as much as others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
