It said the short short list of three has been sent Tan for a final decision. I didn't see anything to suggest how he will make the decision. I would expect he will talk to all three...or he might just forward it to his mum and let her choose.Quote:

Bonkers.
It's left to Tan then.
Only difference is we've actually paid people to come up with a short list.
They may suprise us but it does look like the only difference is we are blowing money on getting a short list.
It's behond laughable.
It's beyond parody. In effect Tan's just asked for 3 names and he'll use his own judgement - not having met, spoken or interviewed any of them. I can only presume that Dalman and co. have made their preference known, it being highly unlikely that having gone through the whole process they haven't identified the best person for the job..
There is no chance whatsoever that Tan will appoint anyone without speaking to them first. And there was never any chance whatsoever that Tan wasn’t going to have the final say on this appointment. Some are acting like they’re surprised by these revelations. What on earth did those people think was going to happen?!?
And the alternative is Tan doesn’t have a say in the manager?Quote:

I wouldn't want him and id have him behind even Evatt and Buckingham but I'm suprised Edwards isn't being considered unless of course the bookies are way off. Id say he meets the criteria of a promotion out of work and cheap.
And Welsh, which appease’s the “boo” boysQuote:

Don’t think he would be naming names unless he had been given permission to do so by the likes of Mehmet Dalman.Quote:

Including relegation to league 2. That said, from what I've read they'd done well to stay up the previous couple of seasons.Quote:
