Give Jacko The Job (He got given it on page 31...)

Cawley just tweeted when asked the Q about Jacko

'don't believe any issues, should be some good news coming'

So the last x pages deriding Agents, TS, JJ & his Dad/Father In law et al all wasted?

Other than he deserves it, can anyone give me a reason why the contract is such a big issue?

What would happen if Thomas just came out and said I have stopped looking because the best man for the job is already in the job?

Jackson is already under contract so what he could he do?  Publicly refuse yo do it? 

It’s not just a formality though, he’s being paid as a coach but is expected to take on the responsibility of a manager. 

Not only that, the coaching team are now understaffed so he’ll have to do even more hours on the grass than Adkins or Bowyer would have had to. 

It would be morally and professionally wrong to allow things to continue as they are. 

I don't disagree but that's a different issue.  He isn't working on a week to week deal. 

The coaching staff is the same size as it was for most of the last 3 last seasons.

If the problem, if there is even a problem, is money I can't imagine they are poles apart.  Your talking a championship assistant managers v a novice league 1 managers salary, unless one side is trying to take the absolute piss they can't be that far apart, if indeed they are. 

The coaching staff isn’t really the same size, we’ve got youth coaches having to fill the gap Jackson/Euell left when taking over Adkins. That creates a completely different issue as well as the Jackson contract debacle. 

I don’t think it’s about money at all, it never has been with JJ and I can’t imagine he’s being greedy or TS is completely low balling him. 

I imagine the dispute is one of power. Jackson is a manager, Sandgaard wants a head coach. There’s a world of difference between the two and I’m not sure either are happy to compromise. 

It is the same size, for Bowyer and Jackson read Jackson and Euall.  Euall's old job was back filled as part of Roddy's extensive coaching review that concluded that everyone in role was the best possible candidate.

For what it's worth I don't think there is a hold up at all and it's all been blown out of proportion because despite the fact the owner said 60 days people want it yesterday.

It may look the same as under Bowyer or Adkins, but it’s not. Anthony Hayes is an u23 coach filling in where possible, but his focus is still u23 football. Euell is regularly away with England during international breaks as well. There’s a recent interview with Jackson where he talks about the coaching team being short a coach since Adkins left.

then we must have had 1 too many before adkins was sacked and the review was wrong? 

I ment we are back to where we were for 3 seasons. 

I a big fan of Tommy and what he has done for the club. My only criticism was his plan for the next few years and mentioning the Premier League and Europe in the timescale, which I found a bit embarassing (open to a bit of ridicule etc.) and wish he'd just said the ultimate goal was the Premier League etc and even maybe Europe one day.

But not giving JJ the job before now is, I feel, rather disrespectful, especially if he has talked to other managers. 

I don't have a problem with him speaking to other managers - nobody knew JJ was going to be such a roaring success (not even him) and indeed, he may not have even wanted it if he hadn't been or if he had found it all a bit too much so TS did the sensible thing and spoke to others as well - we'd all be moaning now if we were still in the bottom 3 and he was just starting the search process - looks from Cawleys tweet that its all been sorted and should be announced soon so alls well that ends well. 

Owner in interviewing more than one person for job role shock.

I believe that by interviewing other candidates it shows a thorough approach, provides a stronger negotiating platform with JJ and shows us he is meticulous and a strong leader 

agree, absolutely no issues with interviewing others etc - he'd be mental not to, but he's had a result insofar as the answer has been right under his nose

That’s not the case. TS said “30-60 days”. Big difference and curiously indecisive sounding. He created a rod for his own back with that statement.

He's only created a rod for his own back if he actually cares about the big noisy fuss that some supporters are making in internetland. I think he's learnt enough to know that the fuss and bluster on here really isn't important to anyone but the people on here. From what I can see, he's taken his time in sorting things out and that is absolutely no problem to him. In the real world, his interim solution is working just fine and dandy so there's absolutely no need to rush. Meanwhile fans have become demanding and impatient because in their collective mind the decision made itself several weeks ago. The amount of speculation that there's been on this thread has been quite astounding. I think we all need to chill out a bit, que sera sera and all that.

He absolutely shouldn't have said it but he did and you can't put lightning back in the bottle.  The rumour and innuendo that has filled the void is now going into over drive.  We aren't even on day 60 yet. 

wot no presser today?????

Be surprised if Euell stays as AM. 

Kieran McKenna, who is a younger looking version of Phil Neville was the number 3 under Ollie. No idea of his personality if he can be a number 1.

We are lucky we have someone all ready at the club who has proved his self at the club in every role he has taken on as a player, coach, interim manager.  
What some of as knew the day JJ got the gig two days before playing Sunderland, Thomas Sandgaard knows now that he has the best candidate. 

Could be a great partnership and best that Thomas knows he hasn't got a yes man but an ambitious manager who will be successful at Cafc or somewhere else.
