Yeah, don’t have much recollection of us every sorting out managers in a short period of time.
This is no longer than any other.

I don't know whether the daily commentary from Ryan Whelan has helped or hindered people's patience in these matters. I guess if we'd heard nothing at all people would be panicking over what we are actually doing, who are the people being interviewed/interested in the role etc whereas we appear to have been given carte blanche as to who the candidates are and the latest article seemed to suggest Artell was all but appointed.

The other thing I guess people are getting worked up about is that the transfer window slams shut a week tonight and the longer we are without a manager, the perception is that it makes it more unlikely/harder to sign players (although i know managers appear to have less input on player recruitment than they used to have.

I was anticipating news by the middle of this week personally, let's see how that pans out.

So what’s the excuse for not announcing Austin til 3 days after he signed?

I think perception of 'long time' is affected by a few things

- previous from the club. see Lindsey
- being linked to multiple candidates making it feel like we are nowhere close
- the perception the be man needs to be in because it's the transfer window and we need him to assess/wheel-deal
- if it's artell it would be fine by now

reality is 3 weeks isn't that long. But people are twitchy

No worries Batch, you've summed up what I was thinking succinctly.

As you say I think many fans, after the SL 'era' are twitchy/nervous about the club making the same mistake again and are seeking the comfort that we are going to appoint a 'proper' manager along with a handful of signings in the next week that are going to see us have a real bash at this promotion malarkey!

I've always been someone that looks forward to retirement (its someway off sadly) but given your 'cheery nature' i'm getting vibes that it's not all it's cracked up to be!

It does seem the fellas that post from abroad - Robinz, Aud etc, are the least patient of everyone on here.

Hopefully we’ll be back in the UK in May.

You’re right, though. Island life gets tedious. Definitely not all it’s cracked up to be.
