This is good to see. The statement offers reassurances around Butler’s immediate future, and affords him the respect he deserves (that too many of our fans fail to show) in welcoming his application.

Credit to the club for starting the process at a good time that will allow for pre-season planning and hopefully put us in a stronger position than we’ve been in previous summers.

This appears to be a good, logical course of action given the position the club is in at the moment.

They tried with AB (which most people hoped would work out) but it hasn’t so here we are.

This season is now over but as someone said in another thread, let’s use this time wisely and get ahead of next season.

This allows a thorough recruitment process that’s worked well in the past and has them in place ready for the summer transfer window.

This is a statement that should’ve been made the day after Moore left

Agree with that, but at least it is a positive amongst all the shite we have suffered recentley. Hope Daniel Stendel reads the ad

It wouldn’t have made that much difference from where we are now to be fair. Credit to the club for getting on the front foot at this point. I backed the Butler appointment at the time and fully understood the reasons. I really wanted it to work (and still do) but this is the best course of action we can take from the position we’re in now.

Slightly strange timing. Probably wanted Butler to take the decision out of their hands.

Which is why AB was given to the end of the season to see if it did work out. It hssn't so the process starts now

I just think if we’d said this statement at the time rather than announcing he had it until the end of the season. Butler could have applied and he would’ve been the front runner but now the results have been as bad as they have been we would’ve been in a position of appointing the new manager now or a couple of weeks ago rather than in another month.

If he didn’t already know it, Butler will now must realise he’s not getting the job

Why is it taking 21 days to shortlist, interview and appoint? Surely could all be done for the 5th May.

Could they add 'integrity' to the job description?! :chair:

They can invite me to apply, but I won’t get it

He also doesn’t meet the second criteria

“ A proven record of accomplishment of securing results on the field”

Yes he does, or are you forgetting his playing career? Actually, don’t bother answering that as it’s obvious that you have.

Look, I think it’s pretty clear that we’re going to look elsewhere at this point. But do we really need you to continue with your sequence of insulting digs at one of the most committed players we’ve had in recent times?

Whats insulting about pointing out he doesn’t meet a specific criteria in a job application?

His playing career is irrelevant to the Job Spec

There is no sentiment in football, as we know too well with how our last three managers have conducted themselves, we shouldn’t let his playing career cloud our judgement when looking for the right man

That’s a shame to see that. He potentially ticks a lot of boxes, he’s available and he’s publicly stated he’d like to manage us one day. I’m hoping we pick the best candidate, and that whether people liked him when he played here doesn’t come into it.

Shame as he would've been my pick.

Not doubting it for one minute SM but why "no chance?"

Assuming that's based on previous workings before he left last time, rather than in his managerial pedigree.
Not digging, just interested.

That surprises me that he wouldn’t be considered if he applied. I’ll take your word for it. He must be disliked by the decision makers then, mind you, leaving Swindon like he did won’t have done him any favours.

Wellens won’t get it. I spoke to someone yesterday who’s involved with the club and he said Wellens is too opinionated to get the job. He also had a scrap with Butler before he left which pretty much ruined any chance of him returning under the current regime
