Vincent Kompany being linked with the Burnley job. I don't think they'll be considering Duff personally so he won't be waiting for that gig to come up.
I always get him mixed up with the lad who was a ballet dancer and left ballet behind to go down the pit, his name was Billy Idiot
Just as I thought, wonder how many more we’ve “sounded” out, obviously local press got hold of this one. I just can’t see it being Duff.
One thing that needs to be said, after the Watford/Rob Edwards debacle, is that at least we’re acting professionally. I imagine we’re keen to speak to Duff and include him in the final shortlist, rather than ready to offer him the job without an interview. We can’t Interview him without making an official approach to Cheltenham, so that’s what we’ve done. Shows we’re making progress to be in a position to appoint our preferred candidate within the next couple of weeks. Done and dusted by Jubillee weekend would be good timing.
Burnley getting relegated. Quite a few people thinking they will go for Duff with him being a former favourite and a cheaper option.
I like the idea that he might have connections with Devaney, through Cheltenham Fc of course. And I like the fact that we're hopefully not going down the usual cheap unknown foreign route again, with somebody who knows nowt about the Efl etc. And just out of interest, especially if we're as skint as we seem to think, how much compo would they want if he accepted our offer ?.
