CWD Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 I don't think Brown impressed, he's the only person who has actually been ruled out completely! I think it's fair to say that Eddie Howe has indeed turned the job offer down too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ottery st mary Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 A lad from Barnet has told the Jewish Chronicle that he was interviewed and was offered the job...... His mother refused to give him the train fare to Southampton and therefore has ruled himself out.. OH! Fialka me up ...Those were the days...

Are there any facts, or links to direct interviews, that I have missed? Finally some sanity. As far as I know this is all of it. The rest is conjecture, and turned into a shambles by the over zealous members of this board! FWIW I think Adkins will be confirmed tomorrow, a club statement will be issued saying he was the only one officially offered the job and that any other information was incorrect. The statement will also end "fans are urged to ignore speculation and any information regarding the future of the club will be found first at www.saintsfc.co.uk" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 What do we KNOW about manager situation? this reminds me of that american tw*t rumsfeld when he was in charge of the iraq invasion.

Professor Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 The Howe story is also supported by the statement from the Club today "SFC wishes to make it clear that it is continuing its discussions with a number of potential candidates for the post of First Team Manager."

Saint Charlie Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 Talking to a manager doesnt constitute offering them the job.

moonraker Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 (edited) The cherries chairmans statement is for home consumption, if Howe was not interested why agree to the interview, and I don't accept the "lots of people go for interviews with no intention of taking the job" argument in this instance, they don't do it in the full glare of there current bosses and customers. It was public knowledge that Howe was a candidate, as he has not got the job he has to go back and make his peace with the cherries fans the chairman is just easing the way and ****ing a snoop at his much larger near neighbour. After all football is only a game. Edited 9 September, 2010 by moonraker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLove Posted 9 September, 2010 Share Posted 9 September, 2010 You see the way it could easily be is that these people have gone for an interview then they either decided that they want it much like anyone else would so for example eddie howe probably said I like what your doing but I have a job to do for bournemouth so thanks for seeing me but it's not for me. Then theirs NA who probably did the same and then the club decided that they would ask how much they would want for him and were in negotiations. Basically it smacks of 2+2 = 5 but the media want to spin it out as it sells papers and they want to be the first to say we had it first. Personally i'm bored and would just like it sorted out infact it would be nice the the internet imploded for the time being until this situation is resolved.

Maybe Howe knew he wasn't going to be offered the job off the back of his meeting with NC, therefore might have been twisted by him that he wasn't going to take it.

Bearsy Posted 10 September, 2010 Share Posted 10 September, 2010 To settle Howegate: 1. Howe goes to interview. 2. Cortese outlines role and asks Howe if he is interested 3. Howe says "No, I'm not playing 2nd fiddle to Lou Reed" 4. Howe goes home and tells chairman he knocked us back 5. Chairman tells world Howe was offered the job and turned it down.
