Lets draw a line then

Between us and Sandro hopefully.

Sandro's first name.

That Angus interview very much looks like a "go out there and say promotion a lot" brief, but better having that than not!

Thanks for clarification. I was hoping for the return of Birmingham Airport Ralph.

I don't quite get the furore about Sandro, but appreciate the clarification from the club anyway. It seems many were waiting for an opportunity to stick the boot in on socials.

Well I think its the case that someone seems to be having complete carte blanche over the footballing side of things who A) has 6 months experience of football, B) seems to be a mate of a mate kind of an appointment and C) was a PR man for sky bet.

Lets not forget that it was he who said that SL was first choice after taking a 'no stone unturned' approach to hiring a head coach, and then admitted that he didnt even interview SL.

And then the interview earlier this week.

The apparent lack of wanting Austin, was this SL, Sandro or both??

There is just too much noise here not to be a tad apprehensive.

Fair enough, I had overlooked a few of the issues. He doesn't impress me but usually we don't hear much from this type of employee so hopefully he fades into the background and does his job or fucks off.

So Aberdeen has confirmed the appointment will be by the end of next week. Sorry Rob not good enough!!

An extra week to make the right choice, sounds sensible to me.

[RobertT]

Taking a week or so isn't a big deal, usually.

[Oldwembley69]

Lynsey took ages. Was it the right choice?!

[Jimmy HaveHave]

Just like they took an extra six weeks to appoint Lindsey in otherwards they are struggling again.

did he? missed that. interesting

I guess contract negotiation and legals take a few days so it doesn't sound outrageous to me

Especially if the person you want is currently at a club and you’re negotiating compensation for them.

Isn't that only Bircham from the list? ......big yikes, if so.

[Jimmy HaveHave]

We're not very well prepared considering Lindsey was probably getting the sack anyway

Bircham is away with Como anyway, tweeted earlier

[The Million Pound Man]

Suggests they weren't close to sacking him
