    2 have already said no (if they were shortlisted)

    what of the other 3 then?



    And what does this say about the calibre of people who have actually applied for the job?

    well from the media it looks like Megson and Blackwell are 2 of them Not sure who the third is - though some stoies only had 4 on the shortlist so its all guesswork

    That said when you draw up a shortlist based on the applications - you might find that on further research / interviews etc you decide that some candidates arent suitable anyway - Blackwell for example
    but its not really the done thing to go public and say we have rejected xxxx

    I suspect having lost their first 2 candidates there is some thinking going on about the options rather than just working through the shortlist.

    Your comment about calibre isnt really that relevant - we could have applications from people we dont think are seriously likely to come but are just

    Some of the posters on here have been saying for the past 12 months if we sacked Hill who on earth would we get? a lot of posters said you'd be surprised who we could attract.

    We are surprised or right.
