Alex's loan spell at Hearts did not work out, but I really like what I see here...lets see how our club can help him develop like Anis did etc etc...

Most of the clips are youth teams naturally but a few against adult defenders etc.

2 great Scots characters I think at the club too, to take him under their wing ...one being club captain may have been an influence too...

That's fine. I suspect we're looking for a head coach, not a manager. Any head coach with aspirations of head coaching any higher than League One will be aware that their career will consist of being employed in a specialist role rather than as an all-rounder.

I would have said that this was the maddest thing I've read all day but somebody on TwitterX has declared that the recent spending spree is because the club have secretly sold Kone and are using the money to avoid the backlash.

If Schumacher chooses Bolton over us (and to be clear, I have no idea if we are interested in him, or if Bolton are), do you not think the fact that he’s from the north west might have a part to play? Would be disingenuous to blame our ownership for that

Given you are likely to have far greater knowledge of the behaviours behind-the-scenes which led to Matt Bloomfield choosing to leave Wycombe Wanderers (Yes, Matt Bloomfield "chose" to leave), this response is rather disingenuous.

I wonder if we'll soon see whether current league position and superb training facilities are deciding factors when a manager weighs up a vacancy (cf. Steven Schumacher and Bolton Wanderers).

The excellent squad of players are also likely to have a greater knowledge of the behaviours mentioned above, and they will cover the entire spectrum from delight to disgust.

The billionaire owner and appointed CFO are playing Championship Manager with our football club. We have seen how this one ends with other football clubs several times over, and it rarely ends well.

If the candidates do their due diligence (a quick call to Matt Bloomfield should suffice) they're likely to decide they'd be better off avoiding this circus.

I think it will be hard to find a “progressive, methodical, adventurous young coach”, especially one with an impressive win record.

Maybe we could learn some lessons from Luton on how to find one.

So, you think that a club lying second in the table with the possibility of being in the Championship next season, with an excellent squad of players that could have further additions by the end of the month, with superb training facilities and a billionaire owner with ambition, is an unattractive prospect for a (possibly) out of work manager? I don’t know what world you’re living in but it’s not the real one.

This is a crazy take.

I’d argue that this must be one of the most exciting roles available in the EFL at the moment.

Bargepole sues.....

Can’t see us signing another centre back unless Low goes.
