It's bad to see the front runners for the job.

There's not a household name , not someone that's known in the football ranks.
Let's face it, were left with people that want the job. That's not a bad thing is it?
At least we will get people that WANT the position

Ultimately, the amount we're willing to pay is going to reduce potential candidates down to either guys with no/limited experience who want to get their foot on the ladder or has beens who've failed at previous jobs and are on their way down.

The salary that JF is willing to pay automatically reduces our options.  We're not proactive in our appointments either.  We sit back and wait for people to apply for the role.  We don't go out and actively approach.

Is it time we pushed the boat out a bit to attract the right guy, because ultimately we end up paying further down the line anyway.

Every 18 months or so we end up paying for two managers and their assistants, so why not bite the bullet and pay that from the start.

Slade + Jolley + Wilkinson

Jolley + AN Other + Limbrick + Poss New Assistant

Plus all of the turnover on the playing side as each new manager brings 'his' players to the club, it's why we have such a churn of players coming and going every single year.

The salary that we pay ends up being a false economy.

Push the boat out for someone who can turn this around and is likely to be here for a period of time, someone who can galvanise the club and lift the fanbase.

Ask Nige Adkins to name his price and then pay it.

Why on earth would Adkins come here? He’s proved recently with Hull that he’s Championship standard still – and didn’t he leave them because of the crap board??

Is the managers salary counted as spend within the salary cap?

The quality on the shortlist does not bother me ,

Its the quality of the person who will appoint that does bother me.

How many times has he got it wrong.

Very much doubt it’s anything to do with us but I’ve just walked past Alan Curbishley in Doncaster.
