To summarize We do not have six weeks. The Football today was appalling under the two guys that have taken control (one of which has already stated that this needs to be done quickly). If they think an interim manager is required while a longer process is undertaken, so be it, but we are crashing down the table with these two picking the team and watching us carrying on the same way as the last bloke. No time to loose. Most of the blokes in the running have been interviewed and one or two may like the idea of a short term contract. Who knows!!! But get a shift on. As it will be panic within ten days!! No way it is going to take 6 weeks and would be shocked if it was as long as 3, it was not given a time scale only a process which could take days or a week or 2 He needs to sack the pair of idiots and put Tinman in place temporarily as at least he loves the club, these 2 do not give a sh1t.

Spike Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 If we're genuinely looking at someone like Eddie Howe or Paul Cook then Monday isn't realistic. I can't see Eddie Howe even being considered but if he was and they were serious then I doubt very much that Eddie would be jumping into this job after a day of discussions.

May be. It has taken six weeks before and the interview (with SL) seemed to imply (to me at least) a long process again, (to get the right man) which is why I mentioned a temp. Tinman is an option as he will get them motivated enough to get a couple of adrenalin filled performances, I'm sure. But we can not leave these two numpties in charge for anymore than one more game I feel. IMO Pearson or Cook would be great blokes to bring in for the remaining games. But I guess we will see!

TBW Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 The club looked through a **** tonne of CVs six months ago, no need to start that again. Reach out for the right man from the pile unless there's a new one in the mix like Eddie Howe or whoever then go all out to get that man. I'd like to think that this time around they're willing to go for it and pay the right man what he's worth. They can't be seen to pick a weak option again. The season ticket pick-up next season would be horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Ashton should have had a shortlist weeks ago, if things turned round and we didn’t need it, fine. I wonder what they make of other clubs firing a manager one day, employing a new one the next? im not saying go that quick but it shouldn’t take more than a week ten days, especially as they would have done a lot of the heavy lifting back in the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree dumb and dumber need to leave now, at least Tinman cares and could not do any worse than today. With out repeating other threads I do not believe DH was the result of the 6 week process, more a low risk / panic appointment at the end when something changed. We will already know plenty about previous applicants and why we did not appoint them, so its only adding others who apply and suitable or reaching out to others of interest to us. The threat of relagation is not lost on SL and will not mess around as we sink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
