True Tic Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 That win ratio needs to improve dramatically if he is to do a job for us. The idea and aim is to get us promoted surely and we want someone can carry that through before we become the league two mid table specialists every season.

adamoafc Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Really hoping it is sorted in the next few days so we can start looking for players. We do this every time with AL delay signing a new manager so he can bring his own players in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakerT Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Not hoping for much but a manager with a Summer to get a team together would be the only choice if we have any ambition of doing anything next season. Reality is we will probably see a manager coming in late July after AL has acquired enough mercenaries to make a squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where this idea comes from that we appoint any slower than anybody else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can assure you of at least two other very well known managers who want it with one with promotion behind them. Gone straight to AL with their interest. Whether they will take the role of head coach and let AL continue with his ways is another matter completely.

Phil Brown not enjoying his time abroad apparently and has a get out clause in his contract which he only recently extended but waiting for a job ‘up north’ in the UK, the other being Kevin Nolan. Doubt any of the two would accept the way AL treats people though. Would take brown over clark and coyle any day of the week not great by all means though. All very underwhelming isn’t it!
