...can you imagine the embarrassment of us trying to attract one of them? "Can I see the business plan?" "The what?" "Do you have any projections for the next five years?" "What?" "Can I see the marketing strategy?" "Marketing what now?" "Will I have any money to spend?" "oh yes, plenty of money - twenty five, maybe fifty grand" Just being objective - we're saying we need an established man - I can't see on earth why an established experienced manager would come to us. We're a badly run club that's staring at relegation, with no aspirations, no money, and we're not even likely to offer the manager a particularly good package. It'll be another gamble on someone from a lower league background who will be described as exciting, young and promising.
Give over any manager asks only two questions 'how much you offering' and 'how much do I get when I'm sacked'
Thing is, there are 92 league clubs and many more than 92 managers, ex-managers and wannabe managers. We will not be short of willing and able candidates, I'm somewhat worried about the club's ability to make the right decision.
