Two chaps invited back for round two. Let the speculation start.

[Jonathan]

That’s ridiculous. Utterly staggering. What more can be said in an interview?! Just make a decision and get on with planning for the new season.

Unbelievable.

The names in the Rumour Mill perhaps.

[The Red Baron]

They should make Strachan caretaker manager and allow him and Wilcox to make some signings.

[johnny rovers]

Absolutely unbelievable. It's a disgrace the situation we are heading into a new season. 😡😡

[Jonathan]

Absolutely. Just wasting time waiting.

[Filo]

Unbelievable.

I agree, the new man needs time to get in to the job, what good will a second interview do

At last someone who can see the woods for trees .

[RoversAlias]

If they make the right choice then ultimately a slight delay won't matter. It's not ideal mind, but the first few days of pre-season training are fitness based anyway.

Make certain we appoint the right man? Or is that too simple an explanation?

What if it's signing the future manager wont want?

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

Tend to agree just get on with it.

You cannot ever be certain can you? Or do you know something the rest of humanity doesn’t? There has to be a decision. They’ve spoken to them all, seen their records, interrogated them. What more can they learn now?

[GazLaz]

If the board think they need another chat to find the right man then so be it. It’s not fantasy football.

[DearneValleyRover]

It happened when Dickov was appointed, he and Appleton were invited back.

[Cantley Rover]

I have every confidence in the board. I can't see a problem with delaying the announcement of who our new manager will be. September should be easily long enough for him to assess who the decent players left after all the others have been snapped up whilst he is waiting for his letter of appointment.

[Lifelong supporter]

Dither, dither, dither.
It's to be hoped McCall hasn't got his name down anywhere else.

[Jonathan]

It happened when Dickov was appointed, he and Appleton were invited back.

Let’s hope history isn’t repeating!

[DearneValleyRover]

Agreed

[Cantley Rover]

It happened when Dickov was appointed, he and Appleton were invited back.

And that really worked out well didn't it.

[bedale rover]

If the 2 candidates couldn't be separated then there needs to be a tie-break of some sort and the board decided a a second interview was the way

[Bentley Bullet]

Hope it's not gonna be decided on who comes back with the cheapest quote to do the job!

If there's only two being called back, they'll have the time to be going into much greater depth about specifics. You don't think they're just going to go over the same ground as in the first interview again do you?

[karldew]

McCall and Hasslebaink would be my guess..

Can’t see what else they need off of them though? They’ve had an interview, what else is there to find out?

Appleton narrowly lost out in the "Are you John Ryan's neighbour?" category.

[Bentley Bullet]

I've never understood how interviewers with no idea of how to do the job themselves are qualified to decide who actually is best for the position.

That's basically the recruitment industry.

[Bentley Bullet]

So is the recruitment all down to which applicant has got the best interview technique, or which one has the best-proven record?

If it's what it should be, the latter, why should there be the need for a second interview?

No idea, I'm not involved in the process.

Perhaps you could contact the club directly and ask them?
