I did hear this morning that overseas managers were been interviewed today. Now KJF says Austrian and Spanish today, im inclined to believe him. He may have read my post today, but seems a more than co-incidence and the person who told me does have connections with the club but would very very unlikely to have connection with him. Very interesting. I'm presuming it's Christian Ilzer, but absolutely no chance I'd get more than overseas interviews from my source, no idea on a Spanish manager has anyone even been linked? No Italian so presume bianco is a red herring. Now Ilzer would be a very interesting appointment.

A quick summary of the who knows the least battle. Kenny irons - “all roads lead to hecky” Castlehill - interviewed about 25 different managers supposedly he knows every one Kjf - a Spanish and Austrian interviewed, he has absolutely no idea who just a total guess. Battle is heating up becoming quite the watch. First of all I think this "itk" bull is just stupid The only reason I post the stuff I do is because I think people deserve to know what's going on within the club because this a forum after all where everyone who comes on here are on here for one reason only and that's because they support town. People just want an idea of what's going on People do just want an idea of what's going on, which is why you're winding people up by pretending you know

Lots of new accounts getting involved all of a sudden. Welcome to the forum! Unless we've seen you before under a different name that'd mean we'd pay no notice...

Is it just me or am I seeing a large dollop of Townrwe in CastleHillTerriers insight and input? One is at the beginning of a three month holiday….stranger things have happened. Monitoring this closely. The 🔫 hasn’t been used in a week or so…. Think Snowy is actually Townre. Didn’t he joined a couple of days after his ban? Thought admins could check the IP’s of posters.

Seems to get a bit more, so it could be baser on truths with a bit of made in Chelsea for effect. I tend to believe what he posts, but with a pinch of salt, certainly more ITK than your average joe.

When does everyone think we will announce this new manager?
Before or after the Southampton game?

I doubt he’s offered him anything as he wouldn’t even entertain us as an option. He has a good reputation he would be daft to risk it on us. Hope I’m wrong but it is more likely we would be able to entice the next Steve cooper someone coming out of the England setup and looking for a chance Love to talk ourselves down, don’t we. Forget it’s Town for a minute. We’ve got a billionaire owner who blasted £4m at the last window (nearly unheard of in this division) and 20,000 season ticket holders. We’re far bigger than some of the teams who play in the Prem, although they don’t suffer from the same need to tell everyone how small they are. The last manager was piss poor and the fan expectation isn’t particularly high. Manage to stay up this season and it looks a pretty good job to me. Not saying we shouldn't try entice him quite the opposite and I agree we as a club need to change our mentality and be more ambitious. I hope our "billionaire? owner" is chasing these types of managers but being realistic it would take more than 4 million per window to entice a cooper to the championship again he will hold out for a premier league job I would imagine or a club coming down with parachute payments.

You’re probably right, but let’s see how he gets on. Not sure Cooper gets another Prem job in a hurry.

I’m a new poster but have been reading for a long time, I’ve made a couple of notes of posters who have claimed things and then been proven right. Maynard is an obvious one. TTC Matt dropped some pun style hints that were right about Healey and Balker Kjc…(forget the exact surname, the fella who said a Spaniard and an Austrian were interviewed today) was correct about Bojan in January and one other I think too Castlehill…yeah, still waiting for Willock Kjf claims all sorts and is frequently wrong. Maynard Dirtyoldtown Bblueterrier Matt Htfc65 Are the only ones I’d class as in the know, desert storm is an interesting one and is currently been tracked 😂 ‘Being tracked’ - I’ve a good mind to call 101 😂😂

surprised nobody has tried flogging Paolo Bianco as their ITK option yet.

Didn't Cooper just have a team full of loan signings when at Forest? I don't recall them spending big bucks. Money aside what would be the challenge in managing Palace? Avoiding relegation and finishing 12th every season? I think town are on the upward trajectory under Nagle and that should be a big selling point.

When he went to forest, they was in a worse position than us. A club with huge history just needing somebody to steer them in the right direction, bit like us. Yet this time he will have money to spend almost straight away(summer) and a lot of it by the sounds of Nagles net worth. It is a very appealing job i think, just depends on if he thinks he can secure a premier league job…

Yeah it is whether he wants to do that again isn't it. Once you've done it once you don't want to have to go back into that situation as if you fail at it you are back to being a journeyman championship manager pretty quickly. His stock is high and if he thinks he has a sniff of palace in the prem he will hold out for it irrelevant of how ambitious we are.

When does everyone think we will announce this new manager? Before or after the Southampton game? Don’t think anybody including the club knows that yet. It seems logical whatever happens they would leave the current team in place until after Southampton but if they are still interviewing they haven’t decided who or talked financial details yet. Could be another week! Don’t know if I can take the speculation

I don't know if it is logical to appoint before sunderland given they only have 4 days before the next game. Timing is key on this. I personally would look to appoint (announce) before Southampton with them stating Worthington will take the team.

I personally would look to appoint (announce) before Southampton with them stating Worthington will take the team. I agree. It’s Tuesday and they are still interviewing if any of this thread is true. So it would be I assume a couple more days at least before the decision is made and financials worked out. So it doesn’t really give whoever it is time to impact this upcoming fixture.

No Italian so presume bianco is a red herring. In all fairness we all know they was interviewing Foreign Managers anyone that watch the diary's knows that as he stated this himself and he also replied to someone on twitter saying of course we are in this sense i think it was obvious regarding foreign managers.

Was previously a sparky (so we could get him to do some odd jobs around the stadium to save money). He also used to be a fitness coach, they may help with our injury problems. He does have a good win % though.

Nixon saying Bianco is on the shortlist. Out of genuine interest (I'm not clued up on such matters), if this guy is actually being interviewed, how would such a wildcard end up applying for the job at our place? Seems very random.
