Ron speaks- appointment expected this week.

[palexander]

Didn't Ron add "oh that's a clue" after his 'mark' comment. Either he's playing silly games or actually let something slip.

if he's being REALLY clever, he said the suggestions were 'way' off the 'mark'. Isnt mark Molesley at WEYbridge?.....

would be just like Ron to have pre prepared a little sound bite to throw in 'accidentally' to make himself look clever.

No, he's at WEYmouth.

@OldBlueLady can you verify this?

No mate, not at all.

As in it didn’t happen?

No, that I don't know. I know there were still 3 candidates in the race at the time that post was made.

Are we right in assuming those 3 are the same 3 that we’ve all spoken about?

As far as I know.

As far as I know.

Could it be possible that he had one candidate in mind (eg. Currie) and used the other 2 candidates as bargaining chips? Then, when/IF Currie declined, Ron was left with the other 2 and never really believed in them as real contenders, so went looking elsewhere?

I tend to think it's more of what we had last time, couldn't get what he wanted so then decided he wanted Currie and now is trying to decide which is the next best option if Currie doesn't decide to come.

Spot on Kay.

The thing that worries me is the Chairman's capacity to judge what would be a good managerial appointment. He does not seem to be listening to many at the club who rate Craig Fagan very highly. He also seems completely unaware of the damage already done by the time taken to make a decision.

 

[BriggBlue]

Just putting this out as a thought, what if the new manager is already decided and is with the club taking training hence why we have been renewing contracts etc.

maybe the delay is in getting the backroom staff together, who know's it could also tie in with paying off the HMRC

I think this time the damage is limited by the fact of the COVID reasons for season ending and Trina ing not happening, so not as bad an impact as when we were looking after Bond, for mew at least.

If the papers are correct then I guess he has listened to a degree as Fagan made the last 2, maybe plans are for Fagan to be part of the setup. Goven Ron’s comments though it seems the papers are wrong so maybe he hasnt listened to those at the club who rate him highly, I am not sure who at the club does as there is no one there other than the youth set up, I personally do not know enough about Fagan to rate him highly or not, although I did say I thought it would be him as he is at the club and it sort of made sense.

I really ****ing hope so.

Fagan & Calderwood would be a force

 

[Swiss Tony]

You see ST you've now provoked me into posting twice in one day. That's another record.

Keep them coming.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Am I the only one that doesn’t take Ron’s cryptic message to mean they’re called “Mark”? I took it to mean that perhaps it isn’t Currie after all.

This. The comment is pathetic and maybe he did spend more time around Sol than we thought and his weird Instagram stuff is rubbing off on Ron. How old is he? and he's posting cryptic messages like a teenage girl after a break-up.

I took the comment as Tilson, Fagan and Currie (the rumoured 3 front runners are way off the mark)

 

[Westcliff DGS]

I thought he added The phrase is that a clue after saying they were way of the mark. I am fed up with cryptic comments, we had them a lot with SC so dont need RM adding to it

The guy CP mentioned from Weymouth is now 11/10 with Currie at 10/11, someone out some dosh on him last night

We never do things simply!

 

[onceknownasrab]

From all I have read, Moseley, is the only one that excites me. A genuine, on the way up, successful, respected manager. If it is him then good on Ron.
