I think @Jimmy87 is mixing his drinks here. Top candidates don’t apply. Their agents let the club know that their client would be open to talks. Certainly managers under contract, such as Carsley, do not apply ! It may well be true that they didn’t apply but that doesn’t mean they were not...

You are entitled to your view, even if your second piece of evidence has nothing to do with patience ! 🤔 Surely the first opportunity was a year ago when we spent a tonne of money and were hopeless for 3 months. The second opportunity was at the end of last season when our form ( 2 fa cup...

That’s right. we also don’t want to undermine the existing manager by sounding out potential replacements but we expect to announce the new manager the same day as we announce the existing managers departure.

Jesus …head coach is just the latest name for manager. Do keep up. recruitment doesn’t work directly for the head coach but the head coach signs of incoming players …..

Robins had the final say on incoming players the new head coach will have the same.

My point is most managers that Championship clubs attract have failed somewhere. Robins finished 18th at Barnsley before he left He avoided relegation at Huddersfield on the last game of the season He was sacked by Scunthorpe when they were just 6 points above the relegation Zone. He then...

Totally different situation.

We do need to be balanced on FL His season at Derby was a success ( losing in play off final ) and his first spell at Chelsea a success ( 4th in Premier League and fA Cuo Final. Everton was a disaster, as it has been for many more proven managers than FL. Chelsea was a disaster but FL has...

In what way ?

There is a hierarchy in football. the big names don’t apply their agents tell the clubs they are interested ….. It’s not weird that FL sees himself in this way, whether it’s justified or not.

Would he good news for one of the oldest professions in the world

Yes and was the Como DofF with Fabregas until this summer

Wise and Lampard

Dennis Wise

Yes he confirmed that the appointment of a Sporting Director was part of his plan to enable him to step away from the club more than he is able to today.

Big Sam

Agents only let it be known their client is interested if he is interested. A client being rejected for the job does nothing for their reputation. if they don’t want the job but do want to alert other clubs of their availability they leak stories to the press, start doing press interviews etc...

Wow. Any idea who he normally has as is coaches ? Didn’t he fall out with 1 or 2 of them at PSV ??
