Very sad RIP Louise.

It’s fairly obvious that some posters will never accept a manager who they didn’t want appointed from outset. It’s a bit daft to slaughter the manager and his signings before a ball is kicked. Let’s wait and see what experienced players he can sign, to supplement the young and hungry players coming from the Vardy academy.
This formula has worked well for other teams at this level, and it’s Stubbs reputation that’s on the line if it doesn’t work. So he’s hardly going to sign players that he doesn’t think will cut it at this level.

Have I read that right? Is he 34yrs old?
24 years old.

We got compensation for Fowler, I don't see this being any different.
Exactly, if we want to take another clubs assistant manager then we have to pay the compensation. Donald Park is a shoe in to replace Brian Rice at Inverness, having worked with Robertson previously.

It actually says that we’ve surpassed last season’s total and sold over 3000. That’s more believable considering we sold just over 2750 last season. It’s a very impressive total given that the early bird scheme doesn’t finish till next week.

I see Jason Holt is not part of Gerrards plans. I would take him personally
Going back to Hearts apparently and way out of our price range.

If it brings in extra revenue for the club then it’s fine by me.

Wasn't there a rumour about this before Super St. Stubbs was on board?
Yes that’s correct, I suspect it may have been JR who made the enquiry about him but that’s all changed now with Allan Stubbs at the helm.
He might well have his own targets.
-
Some newspaper speculation that we are interested in Halkett the Livingston centre back, who is out of contract. Good player, he would be a welcome replacement for Harry Davis if we have the chance to sign him.
-
Last played for Swiss side Servette in 2017 making one appearance according to his wiki page.
-
50 players in two seasons used up and then binned by McIntyre. That stat is now going to follow him around while he seeks employment.
He might well go on to secure another job sooner or later, but for clubs operating at our level that’s not a good look for your future employer.
-
I think it’s going to be really interesting to see what players Stubbs can bring on board. He likes to play an open expansive type of game, so we should see some very decent signings.

Apologies - aye, my mistake. I might have read that someone else was being interviewed today, right enough. Not sure who else is left from the list we know of.
Has Caldwell been interviewed yet? Pretty sure the others have (Stubbs definitely has).
Yeah Caldwell has been in for his interview, of the final four mentioned Caldwell would be 4 th choice for me.

I thought he was in yesterday
I can’t see them going with Kearney tbh.

The odds on Stubbs are now 1/5.
Does anyone know the identity of today’s applicants, or if indeed there were any being interviewed today.

That can't be right as we have been told John Kennedy is getting it. Amazing how some are supposedly in the know despite the recruitment process will ongoing.
I’m only sharing what I’ve been told from someone who is usually spot on with his info. Having said that it does seem unusual for a decision on the manager to have been taken, before tomorrows final day of interviewing. If indeed that is the case.
-
I’m hearing Stubbs is definitely getting the job, the source is usually spot on with all the info. Seriously underwhelming if true.

More to be interviewed tomorrow apparently.
I hope for our sake that they are better quality than the failures currently touted as the final 3.
McIntyre Stubbs and Caldwell.

You are correct. Our offer didn't compensate for his potential loss. I suppose you can't blame him for that.
Absolutely he has every right to look after his own interests first.
By the time his comp has run its course he’ll probably get the offer of a bigger job.

Makes you wonder why Robbie Neilson ruled himself out as he was the stand out in that category.
Rumour is he knocked us back because it would affect his pay off from MK Dons.
-
Jim McIntyre used and then binned 50 players in two seasons at Ross county. How much money did that cost to pay up the contracts.

You know it will be Caldwell or along these lines. No matter who they are they will have our backing.
Caldwell was given substantial backing from Chesterfield to bring players on board, they started the season with one win in eleven games. He was fired sept 2017.

It will be Mickey Mellon. That is all.
I agree with this, he will be a good appointment.

Stokes is definitely traveling with the squad to the Spanish training camp.
