I think this bloke will be a decent choice as manager.
To me he ticks all the boxes.

I agree. Much better than Nugent, Mcmahon or Constantine

Don’t think the Hibs supporters would agree with you! Don’t know if true, but he plays route one apparently?

My mate is a Hibs season ticket holder, I've asked him how sh*t he was. I'll report back.

If have a mate who’s a Northampton Town supporter.
I wonder how good he was for them in a league he knows?
Have to ask.

Must have been a real culture shock for the Scottish Colin Calderwood to manage Hibs.

Must be for a bloke who spent all of his career in England.
Never played one game in the pub league.

Good shout.
Another close friend of Ling who ticks a lot of the boxes.
One thing that is sure, it will be someone Ling has worked with before which doesn’t make them the best candidate.
If I was the owner I would be asking some serious questions if he takes this route.
So which is it? A decent choice or an appointment to ask serious questions of if employed?

    Well after having a little think I don’t think it’s a bad choice.
    I think the owners will ask Ling why he didn’t tip his mate off before signing a 2 year contract just over a week ago.
    This could cost the club thousands more in compensation.

      Maybe they just want to show.it is not the CHEAP OPTION .
      Perhaps.Kent & Nigel personally want to show you
      A. they are not cheap but more importantly,
      B. You have ruled yourself out of The job because
      You wouldnt work under a D of F .

          He hasnt been given the job yet , so its nothing to worry about at the moment.

          You can moan about it for a year ir 2 after it happens.

            And that's why I don't think it will be Calderwood . Get Phil Parkinson in the building ASAP.

            I don’t think is a cat in hells chance of Orient appointing Parkinson.
            Agree I also can’t see us paying any compensation to get Calderwood.
            I would imagine it will cost about a years salary to get him.
            Two weeks ago if would have cost next to nothing.
            So it’s Sol Campbell ( my choice) or Mcmahan or Nugent, or even drag it out a bit longer and go for Jobi. Not very ambitious if that’s the case.

            Well Parkinson has managed Colchester in the past and we're a similar sized club to them so I'm hopeful . Obviously , that's if he would like to join us and we can afford him.
