The Official Next Manager Discussion Thread

[SG]

Yet again it seems that nothing this CFO does is seamless, efficient and wrapped up quickly. I am sure that other clubs do not have such protracted discussions to conclude managerial arrangements. A continued cock up which now looks as though it has every chance of going into the post Christmas pre new year period. This has all the signs of falling at the final hurdle - Stuart Gray anyone?

apparently its all down to Johann Cruyff as to why we wait he is insisting they find a replacement first

Cannot blame them for that at all.

nope not at all, just saying who is the one pulling the strings

Day 45: 45 RPM (Riggs Procastinating Management) is that a record..?

[Neil D]

Not quite. Tel Aviv want a replacement in before Jokanovic leaves.

Perhaps Garcia will return to Maccabi.  He's a free agent.

[filham]

So the state of play at the moment is that we are just waiting an agreement on compensation to Tel Aviv, all conditions with the new Head Coach having been settled.

Well surely such negotiations could be done and dusted in a few hours.

We are of course listening to media speculation and have no idea of the true situation.

Not quite. Tel Aviv want a replacement in before Jokanovic leaves.

Oh dear , the man Tel Aviv want could be under contract and there will be a delay there and before too long a delicate chain will develop. All rather like trying to buy and sell a house, can go on for months and end in a complete collapse.

If we're paying compensation for their head coach can't we tell them to eff off we're having him now?

This is Jordi Cruyff, of course (whose actual first name is, in fact, Johan).
Sadly his Dad has more serious problems to contend with.

Maybe we are aiming to reach a 78 RPM - if you remember those !

...sadly SG, the pace of progress is 33-1/3rd, and not even in the groove..!

Maccabi will hold their pre planned normal pre match Press Conf. tomorrow for the game they have Sunday. 

[alexmur]

Oh dear, how could I possibly forget Magath, we certainly don't want another dose of that medicine.

he was more into cheese then medicine

The longer this drags on, the more I fear that we'll lose Jokanovic'. The idea of 'compensation' means that we're paying Tel Aviv a lot of money for their loss, waiting for a replacement shouldn't even come into the equation. Something doesn't sit right here, and it stinks of the Martin Jol approach first time around.

I agree, something smells fishy and I have yet to really see any menaingful back up to the rumour. It may be true, but surely it would have been done by now, we shall see.

Par for the course with this management. I think its best that we expect this to fall through and Gray becomes the man in charge. Let's face it any deal is not now going to be tied up until well after Christmas, if at all. Most people have better things to do over the next couple of days

We are actually going to mess this one up.

Is there room for any more egg on Rigg's face.

Yes, strong reports coming out of Tel Aviv, that Jokanovic will hold a press conference tomorrow, announcing that he will stay with the Club. If true, FFC better prepare itself for the fallout that will follow. My fear is that a lot of fans will turn their back on the Shahid Kahn ownership.

What more do you expect of Khan. He can´t send in the SAS & Marine Corps to kidnap him. If he doesn´t want to come there is nothing anyone can do about it.
None of us know what is going on & reading every supposed quote from some obscure source is a waste of time.
