They're interviewing as a matter of courtesy, surely? he has applied for it or he wouldn’t have been given an interview surely? they aren’t doing it to pay lip service I don’t reckon, they must be giving him the interview as they feel he’s a strong enough candidate I imagine.

But he has been incredibly loyal and you could argue he deserves an interview. Still can’t see him getting it. Probably a goodwill gesture to appease some of our fans, FV will probably say he was on the shortlist but he didn't have the relevant experience at this time.

Although he signed Kiefer Moore and Ollie McBurnie for Barnsley which made them a tidy profit, and got them promoted from Div 1 and to halfway in Championship when he left for Leeds. Only given 3 months at Leeds so unfair to judge that with no transfer window etc. I'm not really interested in what he did in Scotland, same with so many other managers up there, it doesnt count for much as its such a wierd league. McBurnie, as well as he did, was only on loan from Swansea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does my fucking head in. Only reason I've not stopped following is that we're not exactly blessed with media folk tweeting about us, even if it is mostly crap. His current line is we're scraping the barrel and interviewing waifs and strays, whoever's free, but we've only gone and managed to not interview the only free agents who are actually any good (Bowyer, Clough). And if we just happen to find a decent free agent we'll just appoint them, otherwise we'll try and find some money to attract a bloke already in a job. His tone is as if to say we're this clueless, tinpot outfit desperate to get something for free. Cunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something about Jolley? How will it appease fans to interview him, is there a link? Got a masters degree in economics at Cambridge according to Wiki, and was U23 manager at Burnley for 4 years before managing in Sweden then Grimsby. Put him in the box marked Available/Free/Low Salary/Happy to work under any transfer restrictions imposed by TP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomRepWanderer Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 The only 2 that excite me are Evatt and Lowe, of the unemployed lot only Adkins fits the bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I don't get the excitement over Lowe. He's done well to get promoted twice in two seasons but he's done it with big budgets each time. He might not have that with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
