The Hunt for a New Manager - 16/17 Edition

[stopper2]

It might be by the by, but I hate the attitude of "I've done my time so I should get a promotion"
Its stinks up the place with people not really doing anything but just hanging around till they are the longest serving person.

Could only imagine your reaction to Bridges' when he was pushing his case (and Sheringham's) last week then Gaz!

I deal with this often - wiki the "Peter Principle" to find out why good players and assistants (and in business, managers) often fail.

It's because they aren't very good at the job.

I voted for other. There is a very good young Australian coach at Fulham called Scott Miller that would be very good for the Jets.

Well the worst kept secret is slowly coming out. The herelad this morning claiming Jones top of 3 candidates remaining. And that Lawrie recieved expressions of interest from european clubs, however it seems again we havnt got the cash and Jones will be in charge after the weekend.

i do think he is deserving of his chance. Both times he has been involved with the club our football has improved and i can speak from experience that he is knowledgeable from his experiences overseas with NSWIS.

Think you will find the article indicated that the European based applicants were immediately ruled out once their stipulations (i.e. Contract demands) were given to lawrie/jets.

We have the nucleus of a good squad, any decent coach should be able to come in and direct this team into a good finish on the table..

In my opinion he'll be Stubbins 2.0, but I hope I'm wrong.
