The interview... What would you ask? (1 Viewer)

[SkyBluegilby]

Having read this morning about Timbo talking about the interview process getting started it did get me wondering what a football managers interview is like, what sort of questions are asked etc, whether it is like a normal interview that us normal folks have... Where do you see yourself in 3 years etc...

What questions would you want to ask the prospective candidates and what answers would you want?

I would definitlely want to know what he will do to get the most out of our players and what he would do to resolve our tendancy to capitulate as soon as a screw is turned...

What else would people want to know?

Oh and its Dennis Wise all the way for me.

Better trilogy: Back to the Future or the Godfather?

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

I think SISU would be asking if the current squad can be promoted, if new players are required and if they would accept a match to match rolling contract.

What's your opinion on diamonds? :thinking about:

"Badger or Babboon? Which do you think would win in a fight?"

Tricky one, GF 1 + 2 are excellent, but 3 was a bit shit really.

BTTF 1 + 3 were excellent, but 2 was a bit shit really.

Have to give it the Godfather by a Horses head.

GF 1&2 are the most overrated films going

Not at all.

Lost in Translation is the most over-rated film going.

Of course Sofia Coppola a common feature for both that and GF3.

I remember enjoying BTTF 2 quite a lot, but it may just be the irresistible attraction of hoverboards.

Totally agree. Godfather I and II are masterpieces, Lost in Translation is just dreary, paint-drying tosh made up to look like art.

Can't beat a hover-steam train though.

Why do you want to come to the graveyard of managers ?

Question 2 - how long can you stand on just one leg? Your choice of leg.

(this can be used as a tie-breaker if you can't split successful applicants, which is how Alex Ferguson landed the Man Utd job)

I can't watch those films enough, know most of the script by heart. Highlights Carlo being confronted after the christening by AL Pacino de Niro as the young Godfather making his way up the ladder in NY.

 

[BigadamL]

Can u get a rabbit out of this hat?

 

[Baginton]

would you work with a monthly rolling contract ? :thinking about:

Nonsense. LiT is a very well crafted movie. And the two leads are both likeable and very funny. And it's got a great shoegaze-y soundtrack too. And Scarlet Johansson.

 

[skyblueman]

Can you please stand up Mr Wise?

Oh sorry... you are already

 

[Paxman II]

I thought the OP's question a valid one.

Very difficult to answer and that's why there have been no answers!

First I would explain the clubs circumstances, then tell him why i short listed him, then ask him how he would then go about securing promotion this season.

You're Fellatio Martinez and I claim my five pounds.

 

[covross]

What's a batch Dennis you say? its a type of bread roll mate

 

[Otis]

It has to be by a process of elimination, cos only 2 people actually like the film and one of them is the director of the movie.

Just waiting for a Rotten Tomatoes link.

I would ask every candidate in the initial interview, if he thinks David Bell is crap
