CHAIRMAN DRAWS UP SHORTLIST

[Chrisb]

Oh for the days when Bart v Flavs was our biggest dilemma.

 

[greyerfox]

What interests me is whether Ron and his board take advice from a really knowledgeable football person re the appointment ie does Ron rely upon his own view of what is required of the new manager or call in expert assistance? I have no idea whether Ron and his board consider themselves fully qualified to identify what qualities are needed properly to address the glaring weaknesses in the present team. It seems obvious to most of the supporters but no doubt Ron will also be looking at the bigger picture too, like whether there is enough discipline and attention to fitness levels.

 

[Fiftyone]

Ron makes all the appointments, the board merely rubber stamp his appointee.

 

[Callum]

I really hope he makes the right appointment half of these players are out of contract in the summer so a rebuild will happen we need to win some games attacking wise we are good we need to sort that defence out

 

[South Bank Hank]

I think the suggestion by Bond re it will take several transfer windows to sort the squad out looks be coming true.

Perhaps he was suggesting that there may be one or more bad apples influencing others and / or creating poor relationships between players?

It’s been true since he said it and it was only people’s frustration and anger towards Bond that made them deaf to the words. It was right then and it’s right now. Whatever you want to call it... inertia, direction, trajectory, crisis, there seems to be a lot of rot to stop before we can even start to think about building and moving forward.

 

[The Big Dady]

Ron, just copy and paste all the members on ShrimpersZone,

Job done and list complete.

 

[Microbe]

Surely with the window closed and us in such trouble the best candidate will be the person who can motivate the players that we have to perform to their best.
It's not about their football pedigree or whether they are a club legend but can they man motivate which is what's required at the moment.

Other views are available.

 

[Richard Hearn]

It will take a while but it will sink in with folk on here

Where's Charles Sherwood Stratton on that list? Got to be the favourite, surely?

 

[Special Blue]

I'll give it a miss thanks but will be behind whoever it is

Should have added Ronnie Corbett to it.

I don't think Ron is historically a football man so doubt very much he will make any decisions without talking to someone who has a far greater in depth knowledge than he does.

The last two appointments speak for themselves.

If I did something for 20 years, I'd hope to pick up a pretty decent depth of knowledge on the subject !

 

[davewebbsbrain]

I'd give him the thumbs up ?

 

[tallboyblue]

Depends upon how long the short list is. Well that’s the long and short of it.

 

[davewebbsbrain]

Should have added Ronnie Corbett to it.

Sorry.... He should be included ?

 

[davewebbsbrain]

Clearly you aren't in the running ?

Please don't let him speak to my Wife because forget VAR unless they look like a salt or pepper pot She's got no clue if they're onside or not!

 

[Smudger]

Agreed. The “not a football man” thing was being said in 2000/2001!! Not really valid now he’s lived it day in day out since then.

I would trust him to make the right decision, I just want him to get a bloody move on.......

 

[Fitz]

Utterly ridiculous....why are we taking so long...we are loosing games week after week....it might only be September but time is running out fast before we are cut adrift and have to start planning for League 2!

Get a grip Ron and get this appointment made!
