seriously mate, it's done.  I think everyone gets your opinions on this...but The club/Gibson have made the decision they are entitled to make, time to move on. you can be angry at the club

FWIW -The Chinese discussions with Gibson were centered more towards Bulkhaul and Rockcliffe. Despite what was said in the media the talks were primary regarding club sponsorship and hotel owners

I don't know whether you've noticed this or not but you have a tendency to recommend Danish people for various things.

So the whole coaching additions was a bit of a *** show

Round was told he'd be DoF/Technical Director. Got here and was offered the assistants job. Refused it

Leo was offered the assistants job, got here and it was GK coach, refused it and offered First Team Coach

Keane offered a coaching role, refused it and wanted the assistants job. 

Rosenior was U23s manager, don't know why he refused.

That can't be right surely? ?

That's what I thought as well. That's not shambolic recruitment. That's self-sabotage. I can't imagine we'd be so desperate to get Keane in that we'd just give him whatever he wanted, for example.

It would mean that we offered the assistant manager job to three different people, which is some going really when you think about it.

It would also appear that somewhere along the line we went from wanting a DoF to not wanting one, presumably in quite a short space of time as well, which would call into question this new approach and how well thought out it has been?

Maybe Rosenior refused because he found out he was the only one who wasn't offered the assistant manager's job and felt left out? ?

Or we found out someone better is going to become available ?

Yeah that did occur to me.  It would have been pretty awkward if Round had accepted the job of assistant manager only to have someone else brought into the role he was originally offered.  Of course we could have made a calculation that he wouldn't accept it so the offer was only for show.

I'd heard that Round was originally offered the DoF position, no idea why we moved the goalposts to get rid of the role entirely. I don't blame him one bit for refusing the assistant manager's job though.

I still think Keane is a better choice than Leo to be Woody's assistant, mind.

I'm not disagreeing with you but why do you think that?

Woody and Keane both played together at Spurs, they're polar opposites of each other with regard to the positions they played in (so cover a broader spectrum of knowledge when it comes to tactics) and while it's only the Republic of Ireland, I believe that Keane has been assistant manager at a higher level than Leo.

Careful with the only!
