YGBjammy Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 I would really love it to be someone I haven't really heard of, up and coming in a European league. But that just seems like the least-lansdown appointment I can think of. Only way I can see it is as a "well we've tried w, x, and y, so now let's try z?!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmNick Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 1 hour ago, The hand of RO'D said: I’m just amazed and perhaps maybe a little worried that there is currently 0 media coverage on a supposedly imminent appointment. Either we’re now very good at keeping a lid on things, making a complete left field appointment or we’re in fact nowhere near bringing a new HC in. I’m leaning towards to latter if the past is anything to go by. Increases the chances of someone from abroad imo - agents and media less likely to talk/have connections. As good or not as we might be at keeping a lid on things there are usually enough moving parts that something comes out. We've had basically nothing since the start! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Isn't the lack of media simply because no one outside of this odd little forum and our odd little club gives a crap? Bristol Post might care but I assume Piercy is just polishing off his roast intead of knocking out copy at 4pm on a Sunday.

Fuber Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 2 hours ago, PHILINFRANCE said: Kid is quite sure there is a German connection, without the new incumbent actually being German. Oliver Glasner (Austrian) would be amazing, but surely out of our league, When he left Eintracht Frankfurt, I was pretty sure he would get another job in the Bundesliga, but he has now been without a club since the end of last season. Bo Svennson (Danish) has only very recently left Mainz, although surely he could get a better position than with us. Additionally, someone mentioned earlier that we might need a translator for our new HC, which wouldn’t be the case here as his English is excellent. In short, I should be delighted with either, but am extremely sceptical that we will get one of them. Depends on what kind of link the German element is I suppose. Uwe Rosler springs to mind - at Aarhus (AGF) in Denmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - I only had a cursory add extremely unscientific look at non-German Bundesliga 2 managers who had left jobs in the last two seasons on Wikipedia but this was the only one I saw that felt like he fitted what I guessed we might be after from the messages the clubs have put out. That said, I know nothing about him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
