We all know sweet FA about how this recruitment search is being handled. But, I'm willing to bet my mortgage that we'd be better off with Mr Testicles handling it.

Looking at the wedge Moyes was on, we could have Martinez, or Perreira right now if we had the balls to make a decision. Stubbbs would be a catastrophic decision, Neville not much better (good pro, good timekeeper, mediocre in though and deed). Weir I could just about tolerate as someone who can string together lucid thoughts about football unlike Stubbs, and someone who hates losing.

Bill has pictures of the candidates in a circle he then tells elstone to spin the bottle, if the bottle lands on Martinez or perriera he calls best out of three. I think that's how it works.
 
I resent that. Please don't place me in that category. I'm not offering ITK info or anything like it...never claimed to have. The clues are all there though as said. The heavy emphasis on internal appointments from the outset and continuity; the interviews restricted to internals; the slow reduction of those down to pretty much two with Weir and Stubbs; the signing of Osman before he got off on holiday; the continued presence of Moyes about the club to hand over in a seamless change (no way would he be hanging around for a new team to step in, imo). As soon as Martinez signs for another club I think we'll see the end of this charade and Weir will be presented as the *logical continuity* appointment....the feller looking to be Falkirk's manager back in March. Amazing and at the same time predictable by a clueless board of directors like Everton's who are both skint and terrified to be led by the nose into handing over the keys to the manager's office to Alan Stubbs assistant with the U21s. But that's Kenwright's Everton for you all over: pathetic.

I didn't mean to offend you & I wasn't placing you in any category.

I was merely pointing out the irony in your comment. As you've posted that Weir will get it & that Evertonians are being taken for mugs, as if it's all but definitive & then on the next breath whined about people winding up fellow Blues & claimed the club were misleading the fanbase via the media.
 

Not sure if Bill has thought of this but why does he not put a very large bet on a complete outsider, give him the job and hand over a nice transfer budget at the same time.....simples :)

To be fair though he would probably bet on the wrong one!

Probably because he doesn't want to get bummed in prison. the bummed bit might not be true.
 
I don't think it will be Stubbs or Weir, and I can't stand Kenwright either.

Mark O'Brien of WSAG fame wrote a very good piece on why it probably won't be Neville (or any other dour internal candidate):

Kenwright is many things but he has an eye for 'box office bs', always has done.

Pereira is right up his street. He's exotic, will buy BK more time, and if it goes tits up, BK still has the trump card, 'get a real Evertonian in to save us'.
