That's a good point. Be extremely hard to keep it all under wraps if we'd made an approach to someone in work. Unless it's a foreign choice again but still be hard for someone not to have picked it up if we'd have gone to another club for permission to approach them etc.
Depending on which story u believe, Moore was after somewhere between £500k and £1m wages, plus big money for his backroom staff at pigs so I think we can rule him out. It'll be Devaney
Think they have offered it someone because two of the candidates have taken other jobs after not getting our job Gerard he’s gone to Saudi and Woy Hodgson got another year at Palace !!
If he's a candidate then surely he's the one we shouldn't need to interview? It's either a yes or a no based on what we already know about him. If he's been interviewed then it's a box ticking exercise imo.
Plus we don't know what sort of agreements that Moore and Jones have with Wednesday and Southampton. Sometimes a coach is still getting compo money until they get a new job. Wilder was only contracted to the end of last season though.
There's a process to follow, especially with internal candidates who could argue they weren't given a fair chance to apply in the aftermath. If we're giving someone the head coach role without asking some searching questions about his philosophy and direction as a head coach, we might as well go abck to appointing Schopp.
That's why I don't think it's Jones, unless the clause means they pay the difference to what he was getting at Southampton. In which case he might as well come here for a pittance and it's still Southampton paying his wages.
Yep even tho both are not working, they may lose money to come to us through compo clauses... still can't see Devaney ether, back to the old chestnut why the hold up if him all along.
One name not seen linked. out of work and still lives no too far away ..Danny Cowley, got to be interested.
That was my point. Wilder will be out of contract. The others may still have some agreement with their previous clubs.
Crikey….I sincerely hope not. A glorified PE teacher who has been found out. He’d be a new version of Lee Johnson. No thanks.
