Cardy Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I think today's developments point to one of the following being our next manager: Del McInnesSteve CotterillIan HollowayMatin O'NeillClearly someone has thrown a spanner in the work - hopefully receiving an unexpected application rather than one of the leading candidates withdrawing!

Andy082005 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Someone applied over the weekend, and the exact words used were "spanner in the works" and Lansdown was coming over to interview him today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardy Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Steve Lansdown is coming over because 'the spanner' is a very expensive golden spanner who doesn't come cheap........... Exciting times around the corner!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Dave jones got it if he wants it. Back up plans being made I reckon If dave jones has got it then hed be anounced as the new boss by now. Why put back up plans in place? Its easy. You ring him up, say congrats, see you in the morning at 9. Initial interview would have discussed terms so only minor negotiations would be needed. That can be sorted in an afternoon. Todays announcement says that some applicants have come out the woodwork which the board are interested in. In no way do i believe anybody has got it in the bag at this stage. Yes jones may be their 1st choice at present but they want to interview the new applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

formerly known as ivan Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I think its more of a delay tactic. Struggling to get the main target and rather than tell others they are second choice they have said there is a last minute applicant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know you can't keep those promises anyway, if someone has thrown a 'spanner in the works' and it is O'Neil then... YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOO! although I won't hold my breath.

WellRedPhil Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Is this thread a joke? Why would O'Neil come here? Why would Hollway come here? (Not to mention the fact that even our bord surely can't be stupid enough to employ that Gas c ** t and face the wrath of many fans.) Those two are never happening.

Those two are never happening. ....the good thing is the longer it goes on, the less likely it is Robins....and more likely a big name, or more likely...a man in a job. I just hope it isn't Steve Cotterill. I was told they were meeting with, and met, Cotterills advisors the weekend. They liked what they heard but someone applied for the job over the weekend and Lansdown has flown over to interview him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is if the deal comes off then our main investor will be commiting some serious funds as this manager will not be coming to mess around in the loan market.

Exciting times around the corner!! You don't get a bigger clue than that - it's defo Martin O'Neill that's coming. Why? Well, Dick Spanner PI was an animated film; Dick short form for Richard Richard means Strong Leader Leader rhymes with Feeder Jon Lee is the drummer of Feeder Another jon Lee was in S Club 7 7 is the number of clubs managed by Martin O'Neill QED.
