Surely just with this case alone if they have approached several clubs and staged interviews the managers that don't get the job will be back at their current clubs.

But the only manager (other then mcClaren) they want talks with is Stubbs isn't it?

It was reported by the Cov Telegraph who made their own enquiries. Plus I heard this from one other non-media source.

It wasn't reported anywhere that he'd had any talks. Lol. Stubbs is being offered the job isn't he?

I genuinely can't recall where a manager has gone for an actual interview with other candidates - not been offered a job - and returns to the original club as if nothing had happened.

The only interviews are those that are allowed when compensation is agreed and a deal is done to leave.

Harry Rednapp had an interview with Newcastle but stayed with Portsmouth IIRC.

Zero chance of Warnock he's only just rejected Rotherham himself, if he takes another job it will be a championship club who he believes he can get promoted to the premier league.
Who the hell do you think you are? Coming here with real-world stuff like that...of course he'd rather come down a league to a regressive looking outfit and play the loan market in a lower league. You just keep your nose out!

...onwards & upwards PUSB

I think it happened with Steve Clarke at reading is the only time I can recall, he asked for permission to have an interview with Fulham and then rejected the job and went back to working at Reading.

The reading board weren't happy and sacked him about a week later

Isn't Steve Evans at Leeds? Isn't Russell Slade about to be appointed in the Blackburn hot seat also?

Officially Evans is still at Leeds I think, the Leeds owner has made it no secret he wants a new boss though. Karl Robinson rejected Leeds recently and Leeds were also denied permission to speak to the Bristol rovers manager.

First, you are wrong. It happens all the time. Players (and managers) are always getting tapped up before the buying club makes an "official approach" to the club that holds the player's registration.

Second, TM went to Rotherham to have a chat with the owner. Whether you or the two clubs want to call that a "formal interview" is really a question of pedantry. The reality is what it is. He went up there to explore alternative employment options.

I said several months ago that TM would be looking to leave in the Summer and I have been proved right.

You haven't been proven right at all, you're just presenting rumour and speculation as fact when it isn't proven to be.

Anderson said again today no approach has been made and Rotherham have also said today they wouldn't speak to anyone without permission as it isn't the right way to do things.

Seems pretty black and white to me based on the facts and official statement of each club, no approach has been made and no interview has taken place.

Then what Bawtry's motive?

We can safely say that this rumour Mowbray has actually been interviewed for the Rotherham job is nonsense.

However, let's assume he's on the short list.

If he goes id be pretty happy as I don't see him delivering a promotion charge next season.

The job is a poison chalice though to be fair and before long any manager here is a failure and has raw meat thrown from the gallery.

However, if he goes who comes in?

To me only one option - get Neil warnock - he has always been an obvious choice for this club and why we've never tried is beyond me.

It's not your job to suggest his replacement remember, silly!
I am really confused now why you are suggesting one?
Silp of the tongue I am sure.

Roberto Martinez. But I doubt we could afford him.
