MelvinBragg Posted Monday at 02:36 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 02:36 PM Jens wasn't appointed til 12th June last year and he had a major rebuild on his hands. I'd rather we took our time and got it right.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellsince75 Posted Monday at 03:11 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 03:11 PM I thought it would be done by now tbh given the club will knew they’d have to replace . Leads to me suspecting we’ve not secured our primary preferred candidate(s) got to think something will happen this week . meanwhile credit to the club for keeping it tight , they manage that side of things well .

fizoxy Posted Monday at 04:24 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 04:24 PM We're pretty much on the same timeline as the last 2 appointments, and there's still plenty of time before pre-season. In theory, we could have started early because we knew JBA was leaving, but i believe it was similar with Wimmer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy Posted Monday at 05:18 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 05:18 PM Going off the same timescale as appointing both Wimmer and Jens we're looking at the end of this week for an announcement. I think on both occasions securing a work permit took over a week so there's a chance we already have our guy we're just waiting on the paperwork being official. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0Neils40yarder Posted Monday at 05:33 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 05:33 PM The club manage to keep information in-house these days as opposed to the Burrows-era where everyone in Lanarkshire knew what the gossip at the club was. Appointing a new manager, specifically a new manager who fits the club, isnt always straightforward 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise Allan. Especially so given that the directors knew about JBA's intention to leave weeks ago. However, sometimes paperwork and bureaucracy can draw matters out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
