Lee Briers in the mix now apparently, doubts over Arthurs long term commitment

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 4:56 pm  

I think the longer it’s taking the less likely it’s Arthur as I would have thought it would be a quick ish appointment

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 5:15 pm  

I hope we don't go unproven option again.

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 5:45 pm  

Briers would be a gamble but is highly thought of wherever he has coached.
Having said that the assistant role is always easier than the head coachs role so who knows.
If we won`t pay the asking price for Rowley and Arthur is looking for a deal closer home than Briers for me is the 3rd choice on the rank.
I`m not too convinced about Demiterou personally.

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 5:50 pm  

Briers is another shot in the dark. how many have worked? we need tried and tested this time. you get what you pay for

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 5:52 pm  

Briers and Demetriou are too much of a risk / gamble for mine. I hope we stay away.

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Tue Jul 02, 2024 6:10 pm  

We need a proven head coach at this time. We're just not in the right place to be taking what would be a massive gamble.

It seems a lot longer, but it's less than two weeks since Smith left, isn't it? Week 1 - Indentify and interview obvious candidates. Week 2 - Interview wider candidates. Week 3 - Make decision and announce. I'd say we are still on schedule and despite a couple of purely speculative pieces in the RL media, Rowley and Arthur are still firm favourites.

This is too big a job for an unproven coach.

Re: WHO IS NEXT : Wed Jul 03, 2024 9:29 am  

I don't know who will be next in line, but I do know that I hate the RL term 'for mine'.
