OldGorgie Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 When you read the absolute rubbish about potential managers on the JKB forum and the comments about AB, you have to seriously worry about what will happen when FOH take over ownership of the club.

Lad on loan from Aberdeen gets better treatment than he does in the youth team, for example. Recovery sessions, massage etc Indeed. They're throwing money around for fun up there with very few players that helped them gain promotion. Good luck to Sir Paul but it's not a true gage of success.

jambopilms Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 AB did not say we are after a high profile manager. She replied "why not" when asked about someone like Moyes or Keane. Not the same as we are looking for a high profile manager. I just know that when we appoint someone, loads will be saying where's the high profile we was promised , over and over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruyff Turn Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The board should just get a move on and go for Stendel, Nathan Jones, Adkins, Robinson, Robbie or Jack Ross. Those guys ain’t going to please everyone but for me they are acceptable and are better than names like “Derek ****ing Adams” , dear lord 🤦🏻♂️ Better than Neil McCann or Snake because that looks like the level of shite the board will be chasing.

bazman Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 It still amazes me that people don't realise how betting works. Just because Macphees odds have dropped doesn't mean anything.

The Kdogg Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 So just cause Ann keeps things in house and doesn’t do tittle tattle for the press and the bookies there are tears and snotters all over the shop. The deadline for applications is today so I’d imagine the real short list will be drawn up over the next couple of days. The press have to tell the idiots something. As do the bookies. There is money at stake for them. Let’s all just calm the duck fown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If enough of us put money on Klopp he'd be on the bookies list. What don't people understand about this? My guess is that folk have heard about O Neill going to Stoke, believe he might make an approach for Austin and that Ann will give Austin the manager's job rather than let him go. Hence they've trotted to the bookies to put money on him. Odds slashed. Having seen her coupon last weekend after the Semi final I think the opposite is true Edited November 8, 2019 by Jamhammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyK82 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Where is all this panic coming from? MacPhee will not get the post - or should I say it’s very unlikely he will - ABs comments clearly highlighted a need and desire to get an experienced manager in - of which he is not. And she was hardly going to tell the press he had no chance of getting the post - what would that do for his motivation! Odds mean absolutely 🦆 all. David Obua has been listed by the bookies FFS 😂 Macphees odds have shortened with some bookies purely down to punters whacking money on him probably because they don’t have a scooby who else will get the role. We have no idea of the Official list applicants. The press certainly don’t. What they write, particularly rags like the Sun have to be taken with a pinch of salt, if not a whole bucket! All will be revealed next week probably, regarding who’s applied and who is actually getting an interview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll be a very interesting list, There are a lot of unemployed football managers and wannabe football managers out there. A real shocker, in a good way could have applied. This appointment needs to be one that will pacify/unite the support. I don't believe, for one minute anyone from within the current set up would do this and neither would a Pressley or McCann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
