BREAKING - Maccabi Announce Fulham's New Head Coach

[cmg]

Weird but the announce by Khan was posted right when Maccabi's game started (21:06 Jerusalem) and Maccabi posted it right after the game had been over (now).

By the way they won 5-0

Maccabi's game ko'd at 18.55 Tel Aviv time (and presumably Jerusalem) (20.55 here).

You're right. My bad.
Checked Maccabi's forum and that's what they said. Probably someone made a mistake there.

HaHa! I think I cocked it up, too. I think Israel is 2 hours in front of us.
Overcome by the magic of the moment.

Maccabi confirm #FFC paid €500,000 compensation to get Jokanovic in as head coach

Hail to the mighty Khan.
A few will have egg on their faces now. Oh & there are bound to be a few slagging Jokanovic off if not started already.

Think Jokanovic was the standout candidate for the role. Thankfully Khan has proved most of us wrong with his intent by taking time to get the seemingly 'right' candidate in place.

Agreed about the quality of Jokanovic. However it is evident on reading the release that Khan took control of the process despite having a DoF responsible for starting the process with the Clarke

40 odd days and nights in the wilderness .... Then our saviour appears from the Star of David. More than qualified to part a few  defences and lead us back to the promised land. At last a profit for Rigg and Khan

If so , should that make Rigg's position untenable ?

Maccabi Tel Aviv technical director Jordi Cruyff announces Slavisa Jokanovic's departure to Fulham

Please can we leave this Rigg hunt out ?
None of us, even those itk, actually really do know what goes on inside the boardroom!

Let's move on and support the whole club through a new era!

Not sure about that inference... One thing it does say is that Khan didn't even interview all the candidates which to me is inconsistent with him being in control of the process

Not really - it is common in any company for a director to interview a candidate, but only when they get through to a certain stage of the recruitment. He isn't going to waste his time interviewing everyone before they've even got through the initial stages.

Plus the "evidence" about Rigg - leave it out, there's no evidence whatsoever. If Rigg had announced the appointment you'd still be kicking off about Rigg being arrogant or power hungry, and Khan being absent or whatever.
(that's not aimed at Statto btw)

[alexbishop]

"And I personally interviewed most of them."

Hmmm. No mention of Rigg at all.

Glad we have got this one over the line. Really glad.

Brilliant news. Spend the rest of this season getting us into shape for a proper crack at promotion next season.

Welcome to Fulham...
