Right who's the next manager then? (9 Viewers)

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Did King not mention on Monday that re recruitment, the head coach would be involved as Robins was. Does King have links to the Redknapps as well? Collomosse said only the other day that it's a shortlist of 5/6, now it's two but also Carsley as a third option. Quite a specific update, but still doesn't ring true

He did say interviews were being conducted through the weekend. Plausible interviews have had a couple out of the running.

On the head coach recruitment, that’s the issue mentioned with Lampard. Might make sense if Doug wants him but is having second thoughts.

On Redknapp I remember someone saying Doug was friends with them all earlier

What's redknapp got to do with anything?

It’s his uncle and who got him the Derby job.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Like what? And we’re suddenly supposed to believe they have close links to both Ruud van Nistelrooy and Doug King now?

This post from another thread calls some of the transfers from the summer window as an example.

Got as much credit as 'real' journos

yeah, he posted them after others had already done so

he also predicted loads of shite that didn't happen

he's a cosplay romano

 

[Chris1987]

If Harry throws enough bungs it's Frank isn't it ?
I really hope RVN gets the job

Don’t have time to read all that - there’s a man at the door who says he’s the wallet inspector.

 

[David O'Day]

Also what the fuck does King have to do with the Redknapps

It's your typical hedge your bets so so you can be right if multiple things happen tweets clowns like him post

 

[shmmeee]

Piecing it all together now. Doug goes for a late night session with Harry, gets convinced to sack robins by drunk text and hire Frankie in.

 

[Noble]

Not going to be pleased if we're landed with Frank purely because of some personal relationships

"Hedge your bets" very pertinent with regard to Rednapp

 

[David O'Day]

Lads, that clown is what you would get if GIMOC decided he wanted cosplay as David Ornstein.

As always wait for a proper source

So if I've got this right, King has friendly connections to the Lampards / Redknapps, and has let the world know that Frank has applied for the job. But he's running this recruitment process professionally with a completely open mind, and wouldn't find it at all awkward to give the job to someone else?

 

[Ring Of Steel]

On par with the Dutch charity shield

why did you edit what I said? Weird

Yeah m8.. but those border plants though..

 

[Chris1987]

Best book at 170% on odds checker speaks volumes. Nobody has a clue and bookmakers have a massive profit margin too.

[lord_garrincha]

Apparently the candidate with best qualifications is Scott Canham... I'm guessing Harry might be on the case to Doug.

 

[lewys33]

I came to terms with it potentially being Lampard … BUT … if Ruud is the preferred choice and we go with Frank over the Redknapp connections then I hope Mark sues the bastard.

 

[False9]

I didn't realize

Quoted the wrong person

 

[Grendel]

He loaned the club £6m

Not again. So does every owner issue loans

 

[hill83]

His record at Everton and West Ham is not bad though and he has won a European trophy. West Ham are doing worse since he left and he is is a stable manager. Even if he is not a swashbuckiling type, those credentials appeal to me.

Brew XI manager

 

[fernandopartridge]

I do like moyes but I feel like he's a manager that I'd want if we were trying to stay in the Premier league , not get there

He's never been promoted to be fair

 

[CovLad94]

Alan Nixon with something on us tomorrow, Lampard news I'm guessing or he's jumped on the RvN news

 

[Evo1883]

Picked up on something somebody said on twitter

You can see how big a club coventry city are these days and what a prospect they are to manage when you look at the Cardiff city manager odds

No manager for 5 weeks

Whoever we appoint , what a deck of head coaches showing interest in us. Biggest job outside of the Premiership.

I wouldn't say that

Carsley all day long.

remember….
Rooney
Roy Keane
Staam
Gerrard
Scholes
Tony Adams
Stuart Pearce
Ruud Guillett

Big players, all failed as managers.

RVN is a wild card and Lampard has one more chance otherwise he’s done.

just no. Carsley has done NOTHING of note in his managerial career either

 

[Senior Vick from Alicante]

My issue, after Doug's remarks, are that if some of the coaches aren't up to it the head coach will need to bring them up to speed even before he gets to the players or were spending again to replace them. Strange times.

Guardiola , cruyff , Zidane , deschamps , Dalglish, Conte , Simeone , Rijkaard , ancelotti

Not entirely sure Roy Keane failed ? Won promotion from the championship

And gullit won the fa cup? Not a total failure

I'd gladly have Keane & Gullitt from that list over Carsley - besides which,Carsley doesn't want the job anyway (Ruud didn't do that bad at Chelsea did he?)

Gullit’s last job was in 2011 in Chechnya (he lasted five months).

 

[Ccfcisparks]

If it genuinely is between Lampard and RVN then I’ll be so disappointed if he ends up choosing Lampard
