We don’t know that he applied before the play offs, it’s all hear say.

I blame the journalist for spreading rumours before the clubs had concluded the deal😀

True .

the rumours he was interviewed the Saturday after our exit seen stronger though.

just rumours again, admittedly.

if they are true, that's not much time after playoffs to get to that point...

Another thought:

What happens to the shortlist of players that BC and BG have been composing for the past 10 months?

It was pretty well documented we had started recruitment for next season a long time ago.

Is that now all a waste of time? I'd like to think not otherwise you're paying a DoF a full time wage to only be useful within a transfer window.

They only wrote it on rice paper, with lemon juice invisible ink, and they've now eaten those pieces of paper so nobody else can find out who they were thinking about.

I think you may fine a number of players were lined up and may still sign, hopefully subject to new Coach/Managers approval.

For all we know, Charlton could have approached Garner before the play offs, and he may have said, let me get these out the way and then we can have a chat?

No one knows if they approached him or if he applied for the job. We probably won’t ever know either.

Can’t imagine anyone is going to sign without knowing who the manager is.

Maybe we’ve already got a manager waiting in the wings and informed any prospective signings who it is.

I’m sure a ‘name’ could also swing the OOC players into signing up again.

Jojo and Sweeney did last season which I found a little weird, and that ended up with Sweeney leaving as soon as the new manager arrived.

As for players identified, Les Caffery the Head Of Recruitment will have the list its not like Chorley or BG had exclusive rights to the scouting reports, Les found and identified many of the targets but Chorley did the face to face stuff with the players and arranging contracts etc but the targets are still there.

to state the obvious the list is potentially only useful if the new man wants to play in the same style. You wouldn't want a flitcroft type with a garner squad

you'd think the new man was known and that this stuff is already being worked on. But until Garner actually officially guess there's not a lot that will happen externally

Dunno what the hold with Garner was but left when the article saying he was going to Charlton was first publish. He cleared out his office and the following morning and hasn’t been near the CG since.

I imagine (and I’m guessing here) the lack of official announcement from Charlton limited what we could and couldn’t say about our manager search but I have no doubt it’s been going on since the first article about Garner going to Charlton was published.

I suspect it was all going on behind the scenes then the holidays got in the way and the journalist made things awkward by leaking the story too early.

All possibly true. Though IMHO the new manager won’t be RM. yes, I know have not suggested it would be.

I lose track, but wasn’t McGreal manager then?
