Any rumours

[phil old leake]

Has there been any rumours about the amount of actual applicants for the managers job

I know the club are saying a lot of interest but was wondering how that reflected with regard to applicants

[Nudga]

Leaky Phil desperate for news.

It will probably be a cheaper option.  gun me down if you like, water off a ducks back but we usually do that as they have a budget to stick to

Any rumours about the phantom list of players that GM and GB we working on to get signed before he left?

Why is it a phantom list?

Could it be there isn't a manager to sign the players ?

Here's a rumour: Arsene Wenger is interested. Source: me, I just made it up.

We’ll see when the new manager signs if players are quickly available that’s if he wants them.

I'm not going to shoot you down but just curious as to who you think was a cheap option previously and how would you know who's cheap and who isn't?

Honestly Steve, would you expect the club to be pressing ahead with signing McCann’s targets right now? I definitely wouldn’t. I cannot see why you would imply that the list didn’t exist, or why we would be working through it and further committing the budget before we’ve recruited a manager. If there’s one positive to be taken from the position McCann left us in it’s that most of the budget to strengthen the squad should still be available.

It also gives the new manager a pretty clean slate to build largely his own team.

Well you didn't really answer my question.

By calling it a phantom list you insinuate there wasn't one at all. But there was, and it now makes sense to hold off on signing those players until the new manager is in place. He should have his own ideas and players, which will affect discussions which have already taken place.

What is the cheap option and please tell me who the candidates are that fall into that category Dave.

I don't think Ferguson or McCann would have cost the earth

[Copps is Magic]

The only sort of rumour that's got any credence is the Robinson one, and that didn't come out from our side.

[RoversAlias]

You don't think Darren Ferguson, who has spent the bulk of his managerial career in this division and above, would have cost much?

Never close to being the cheap option. To be honest we could actually appoint Arsene Wenger or Jose Mourinho to the post and some would probably still say it was the bloody "cheap option".

As a club we pay well above the average for this division. We can never be accused of taking the cheap option.

I think DF wouldn’t have come cheap. Why would he. Doesn’t need to go anywhere on the cheap.
McCann would have been cheaper than some but more expensive than others.
This getting someone on the cheap is silly talk.
You make it out our owners a cheapskates which is quite frankly ridiculous Dave when they are putting 2.5 Million min of their own money in season after season.

And that's the point Campsall, why throw in £2m a year and then save £50k on a salary? Surely you want to safeguard your investment?

At least some of us understand that. It’s unfortunate about the ones that don’t.

Are you actually implying that a manager demanding more salary is better than a manager asking for less?
Your logic is flawed by your inability to perceive ambition over reputation,

I would suggest that you think about what you want to write in response to a thread/topic, then look at what you have written, then ask yourself does it actually make sense......

If the answer is no! .......don’t submit it

Yes I was insinuating there was no players on a list.
Jonathan I do not expect us to be signing players now.
But if there were players on a list then if the manager wants them he’ll sign them quick.

[the vicar]

Lol I know that would get a response
