Re: The Ling Interview
Seems Martin Ling is ruling out any change in the coaching team below that of the new head man. I wonder if that will impact upon the number of decent candidates we might get?

Re: The Ling Interview
Does Martin Ling have the sole power to make this decision? If so, that worries me.

Re: The Ling Interview
Stand head and shoulders next to Ross in the turbulent waters? What is that all about. Is he comparing himself to Moses in the Red Sea?

Re: The Ling Interview
It may do - but in a positive way as far as I'm concerned. Ross, Jobi and Danny have done nothing wrong and don't deserve to be shown the door on the back of what has happened. Any new manager worth his salt should be good enough to work with anyone including those who are already in place. If they say they only want to job if they can bring in their mates, the club should rightly be saying 'no thanks'. It worked for JE.redintheface wrote: ↑Mon Sep 23, 2019 7:13 pm Seems Martin Ling is ruling out any change in the coaching team below that of the new head man.

Re: The Ling Interview
Agreed Tent, the beauty of long term thinking ensures stability when things go awry. Hopefully the structure will stand up once more under a new head coach, like it did under Justin.
I do recall many were against it when it was introduced.

Re: The Ling Interview
Having watched that it makes sense now Ross looked so I'll at ease in the job; he didn't want to do it and was persuaded into it by Ling, who seemed to know all along it didn't suit the guy's personality and skill set.
I do wonder why he made the beeline for Ross to do it rather than Webb though.

Re: The Ling Interview
I can’t believe this bloke.
He has had 3 months to get an idea who he wants, now he is going to ask every Tom willy and Harry to send their Cv in.
He should have a shortlist of two and get the best one, I give him a clue, Sol Campbell Derek Adams.
What’s he going to do, have a round of interviews for the next month and pick the cheapest?.
I can’t believe any other club with any ambition will act like that.
Go out and get the man to take the club forward.
Unbelievable.

Re: The Ling Interview
Why have a DOF when after 3 months he hasn’t got a clue who the manager should be and is going to advertise in the Sunday Sport.

Re: The Ling Interview
How do you know he doesn’t have a clue? He may well have identified who he would like but I doubt he was in a position to talk with them until Ross resigned. Now, quite rightly, he is looking further afield to see who is interested. He is going through the correct process. Don’t mean he hasn’t already got preferences but he needs to find out if they are interested too and that they are a good fit.
He needs to get it right so taking a bit extra time is spot on.
