New manager speculation / rumours thread

Re: New Manager recruitment process in place

A month to get an important hire right isn't a long time at all, outside of football.

And football clubs at this level aren't really big business, a typical championship club has less turnover than a medum sized Tescos.

I agree; I would rather they spend some time getting this one right.

If you get the right Manager, everything else falls into place. If you get the wrong one, we'll fall through the leagues.

We've been weeks already without a manager.

Our issues are with the ownership and board. There will be no change. Expect the same results.

They clearly are incapable of choosing a manager themselves so are bringing in outside help with Tan making the ultimate decision.

This doesn't bode well.

Until Tan finds a buyer this shit show will continue.

The club took 10 weeks to decide that Riza was worthy of a permanent contract. How much longer should they take this time?

Even Omer Riza's most fervent supporter would have realised that the seven or so months he spent managing the team was a period where he was in danger of losing his job at any time. We're told that for a month before Riza was sacked the Board was united in. wanting him to leave, but the owner was not having it until he woke up one morning and decided that he was.

However, the reaction of Messrs Tan, Dalman, Choo and the club Directors whenever a manager is sacked is always the same - it's as if someone else has decided to make the change and they've all been caught on the hop.

I'm afraid that, so far at least, the hierarchy seem to be reacting as they always do apart from the fact that this time it's being accompanied by a load of blather about how things have to change.

Tend to agree, if this appointment doesn’t work out Tans going to push back even more, we will still be paying Bulut.

Have any of the other clubs who sacked managers around our time for managers yet. Don’t think I’ve seen anything on Norwich or WBA

Spot on Bob, the impression is being given that it’s only since Rita was dismissed that the process started,if that’s true ( surely not) then it displays a depth of incompetence that should strike us as staggering, unfortunately that seems to be a way of doing things which has inevitably led to us being in the position we are today.

Obviously, as quickly as possible, three weeks is the max they should take, but get it right, there is still a lot of choice, if they don't take too long.

I think it's a positive that they are getting help, and it SOUNDS like they are trying to be thorough. Let's see what they come up with, I'm just glad it's not those three trying to do it alone.

This article is from when they hired Omer Riza. Sound familiar? Nothing is changing, as per usual, it is more waffle from Dalman.

Re: New Manager recruitment process in place

What’s the rush? It’ll be cheaper to wait until August to install a new manger, and in the meantime Tan can just instruct the current staff to use pre season to practice shooting from our own half.

They're getting help to create a shortlist of applicants for interview. The current board will be the ones doing the interviews and making a recommendation to Tan. The lucky winner will then be working under the existing structures. Nothing is changing long-term.

I hope they follow the guidance from people in the know, although based on previous appointments, you are probably correct.

Yes, it does. Something is wrong, it seems like they are at least trying and someone is making the decisions while ignoring the guidence, let us see what comes of this and decide then if it worked or was the usual flannel.

I'm comforted by the hope that there shouldn't be any more Riza's on the shortlist, but after that, who knows.

It read....

Cardiff City have detailed how they will hire Erol Bulut's successor, with the help of an external football agency and two former managers..

So pretty much the same process that brought us Omer Riza. I think I'm probably alone in thinking this is a completely cack handed approach to what should be a straight forward, simple process for any football club.

The problems here are, if we had in house football expertise, we would not have been using this arrangement then and those outlined in Walesonline yesterday for the current situation. Sadly, we don’t so setting up new recruitment arrangements involving external expertise is not a problem imho. However, the problem is our owner and his tame mouthpiece Ken Choo. Apparently, he ignored the recommendations of the “experts” first time around and he appointed Riza for the rest of the season. If Tan does the same thing this time then we are in big trouble. Dalman is not the problem here.
