    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Robinson had us playing some good football for a fair while tbf and we did make the play offs twice. It only fell apart because of the off field stuff with him which from the outside made him become unprofessional, badly affecting the staff and players. We were bad from the January the season...

    Assuming what is rumoured is accurate plus we have the Manning/Hogg/Krause compensation to offset as well.

    My reaction to this game is ***shrugs shoulders*** although I'll likely be there to watch whatever happens.

    I thought you were appointing Karl Robinson? Just don't let him meet the women's team!

    We are negotiating compensation for the chosen candidate according to the local rag. One of Des Buckingham, Andrew Crofts or Paddy McCarthy likely then, unless another managed to sneak under the radar of media and ITKs.

    If this journalist is to be believed (don't know anything about his reliability) then Des Buckingham underwent a 2nd interview today: That said it could be reliable as our Head of Recruitment and the club are now following him on Instagram apparently and some of those who have got things...

    I suspect it isn't him anyway but he was mentioned as well as Des Buckingham on the Radio Oxford radio sports news slot this afternoon. Presenter Jerome Sale has good contacts throughout the game. He was also discussed on the 'The Dub', an OUFC podcast produced by Radio Oxford today. Basically...

    Des Buckingham and Luke WIlliams in the running according to Radio Oxford. Candidates to be interviewed today. After Ruben Rodrigues' comments on Saturday, Luke Williams' name being released definitely won't please Notts Co fans.

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Jerome Sale* on Radio Oxford said similar as he had spoken to his contacts in the Lincoln media. We all thought it was a bit strange with the odds at your end as well. Tbh, I thought he was unlikely for us even with him being local and will still be surprised if the mood music from Radio...

    How's Yanic doing for you? And back to the subject at hand, international weeks are great when looking to appoint a new manager. :bg:

    After this week, I'll take a win however. Hopefully we get the new manager in quite quickly especially with the hints from Jerome Sale on Radio Oxford about Des Buckingham.

    Radio Oxford making massive hints that he is joining us but don't know how accurate. We have done some interviews so possible. He started his coaching career with us and has been at Wellington Phoenix, one of the Melbourne clubs (albeit Assistant manager I think) and is head coach of Mumbai...
