June 22, 20206 yr I can see them going for Chris Powell. No compo - decent if not glittering record - experienced at all levels up to the Championship and still relatively young.

I dont want the fucker anywhere near our club. He sounds like right arrogant greedy unstable cunt! I'm with you. Based on results etc there are worse managers out there but it isnt all about that, we need a stable presence and like you say its a scary thought to have him running our team at this delicate stage in our history.

And they had Hamilton sent off early on and were 1 up (like us at Accy). Then down to 9 men...so definitely not as bad as our's. Anyway I'm not here to defend him, just cant hold that 7-1 against him any more than I'd hold our 5 goal defeats in Aug/Sep against Parky and Hill.

Tongue & cheek the 7-1 But considering the points advantage they had on us we didn’t finish far off anyway we both agree he isn’t for us👍
June 22, 20206 yr Hi very rarely post on here but a friend of mine who plays non league knows a few lads who played under Campbell at Macclesfield. Apparently when the captain suggested the system wasn't working during a losing streak he was brought in front of the squad by Sol and asked how many England caps he had, the players were then told if they question him again they could "f*ck off" and would be out of the team. Obviously this is third hand information but it seems to line up with rumours about his ego. Hill used these sort of humiliation tactics last season and seeing how that ended, it definitely feels like he would be the wrong man for the job.
June 22, 20206 yr Iles says no approach for Campbell, Heckingbottom has applied, Evatt looks favourite.
June 22, 20206 yr Minor miracle from Campbell to keep Macc' up season before last. He can certainly organise a defence.

Southend fans didn't rate him, he inherited a decent squad from Phil Brown and messed it up, he's apparently too nice and wasn't a patch on Phil Brown.

June 22, 20206 yr Interviews this week...Serious question who the fucks doing the interviews. Yes I know it will be Tobias Phoenix Andy Gartside and Sharon Brittain, with perhaps Michael James and Peter Kenyon. I am sure if they approached Big Sam perhaps Peter Reid and asked them would they sit in on the interviews for a small consultancy fee I am sure they could get a better feel for the candidates.

That'd surely be more than enough wouldn't it? In fact even that many big wigs interviewing would be enough to put some people off a position. Be like meeting a birds overbearing mum and father in law before you even go on a date!
June 22, 20206 yr I just hope the club are open & Crystal clear on what resources will be made available this needs to be right first time us fans have had some shit in recent years and I think everyone is onside just

June 22, 20206 yr Sol loves The sausage. He’s a no from me. Not because he’s a sausage jockey but because he’s a twat and wouldn’t fit our club. the fact Paul heckinbottoms interest in the job has been leaked by someone tells me he’s being considered. to my Knowledge he’s the only one who has been confirmed as having applied/thrown his hat in the ring so why would that be the case? didn’t do well at Hibs but I quite like the guy. Controversial I know. anyway it’s evatt‘s job if he wants it.

Be like meeting a birds overbearing mum and father in law before you even go on a date! Perhaps if they are interviewing for a corporate management position yes, but if Evatt walked in and said he likes a ball playing goalkeeper and I like to play with wingbacks with three in the centre. And I want all teams from under 11s through to the first team to play the same way I am sure it would go over most of there heads. If he came in and said I am only interested in the first team and signing players on short term contracts with no fees or Agent fees maybe it would sound better to the money men...but would be suicidal for the club.
June 22, 20206 yr Forgot about Heckingbottom. Given no chance at Leeds, don't know what happened at Hibs, but going off the excellent job he did at Barnsley, we could do a lot worse.
