rosythpar Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 The board are having a meeting at east end this morning,hopefully we will know soon that he has been given his marching orders. This appointment has absolutely destroyed the club and we will be suffering from this for a while. The signings grant has made will still be here and some are here on 2 year contracts,absolutely shocking. Some fans might not have wanted Dick Campbell back but he wouldnt have had us in this mess. If we had brought Dick in,you would also have a great assistaint in Pink. The pair of them have worked miracles at Abroath and will now be laughing at us. We need to bring a proper manager in this time,not someone who is best pals with board members or a manager who gets a good reference from his ex-chairman. Us the fans cant put up with these ridiculous managerial appointments anymore. We need a proper interview process this time but I am afraid the damage has already been done for this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of managers will probably decide not to bother as they will have the perception that we are a tin-pot club, and rightly so. part of football management is there are only so many jobs and even fewer available at one time, there will be plenty of applications and interest IF the job becomes available. 2 hours ago, Piracy said: Very good, but he maybe should have halted and sifted through a few of the stand outs. maybe Grant was the stand out when they looked at the 80+ applicants. 41 minutes ago, Mr Mac said: I wasn't convinced by Grant but his gift of the gab pronouncements got all our hopes up only to be dashed against the rocks. going to tie that in with the idea of a interview process and Grant has conned his way into the job, it would be unusual to appoint someone who interviews badly or worse than others in that process.

Maybe, but going on what the Chairman said he wasn't interested in them as he already had indentified his man in Grant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would say Grant stands out better than Dick Campbell? Dick applied for it and his managerial record blows Grant's out the water.

Never heard that, I would doubt being an incumbent manager in the same division he would publicly say that - but happy to be proved wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
