So the board has made a decision then?
Not as yet, hence why its only a possibility.

Know it might upset a few people on here but it could be that the new manager would have been at training anyway if you get my drift !

Get the candidates announced and let's hear what they have to say? why do we have to speculate who has / hasn't applied.

I'm stunned that people still don't know who is on the shortlist.

It's been an open secret for a little while now.

Because that would be a breach of confidentiality of all the guys that have applied Jonty!

even if were winning every one in style..ridiculous statement. :roll:
We wont though. I don't think they will, we need a clean break from the old management. Don't forget it was Meechan who signed a lot of the players who have got us where we are so far. We've got 3 points from 12 had 2 good cup wins and got knocked out by bamber bridge. I think we need someone with a bit of experience at the moment, I mean I could get behind say Henney or Jonah because of what they've done for us. Meechan has done nothing tbh. It would also be the easy choice by the BOD thats another reason why.

3/Inexperienced manager.
4/Manager whose team play dire football.
5/Out of work experienced manager.

Don't know if it was a coincidence but our rather odd friends from up the coast had the Champagne & bunting out this afternoon.

Wouldn't be a disaster IMO.

Knows the league.

Closer to home, just.

Never had much money and the only time our six fingered sons of toil had any investement did not too bad.

I would prefer Henney, but I am sick of folk from Manc or Liverpool and want somethign different.

I am guessing he is the favourite at the moment don't let what he has done up the coast recently put you off. Lets remember he got them to the play-offs and the semi final of the FAT.

Who knows with our bigger budget and the fact he lives local could be a good thing.

Would still prefer Gary Lowe though.
