Potential Manager Suggestions?

Mon, think twice it just another day in Paradise..

 

I'll be concerned until it's announced, just hoping Howe isn't stalling and waiting for another offer.

 

I think the assumption is that he's already agreed in principle to take the job and also assuming he is a man of his word.

Going by his interviews before, if he has agreed to sign up, be it at the end of the season (for a number of valid reasons from his point), then I do reckon he is the sort of guy who will be doing some work even at this stage.

Be it off his own back, considering the way the industry works, it's not like he's showing up to Tesco to do a morning shift for the * and giggles. Or even if the board's agreed to give him a bonus in the first month to "compensate" any work done.

Notorious, post: Celtic's long wait to appoint a new manager is set to end this week as Eddie Howe finally prepares to put pen to paper on a Parkhead deal.


Record Sport understands club bosses hope to begin the big rebuild in the coming days with top target Howe the headline appointment – almost two months after the Englishman’s first meeting with billionaire shareholder Dermot Desmond and incoming chief executive Dominic McKay in London




McKay may also unveil a new director of football as part of a major restructuring in the wake of a catastrophic campaign which saw former boss Neil Lennon shown the door in February after a miserable run of results wrecked his hopes of securing a 10th successive title.

While well placed sources have told Record Sport an official announcement will not be expected on Monday, it’s believed McKay hopes to have Celtic ’s ducks in a row before the end of this week.


We revealed earlier this month that Howe’s position would not be officially rubber-stamped until after the fate of his former club Bournemouth was sealed in the Premier League promotion play-offs.

It’s understood he wants to bring coaches Stephen Purches and Simon Weatherstone north from the Vitality Stadium as part of his Celtic backroom team and both men are now free to focus on their own futures following a semi final defeat over two legs against Brentford.


McKay has also been closing in on a director of football but it’s believed the appointment of a manager has been the club’s priority

Wee bump for the next page

 

What do the daily ranger know

I’d prefer to believe tweets and posts and ideas that he’s soon to sign seem way off the mark

I would be interested to know what this whole "working away in the background" theory is based on. The only concrete thing we've have heard on this whole sorry saga was an interview with eddie howes agent in which he said howe wouldn't be making a decision on his future until summer.

 

Was rumoured that it was decision to let Klimala go

 

Hope as Paul says, but the rumours are that Howe (or an incoming manager) has given the nod to klimala leaving, also assumptions that the ntcham story would be on his nod as well.

Add to that his past interviews describing how he takes to a job, would suggest even if he has just agreed to start in June, he is the sort of character who will be doing his own thing behind the scenes.
Be that requesting tapes of every training session and game to get a decent first impression of the squad.

And Broony.. personally I'd be very sceptical on that.

 

So take a look at Eddie Howe, there's just an empty space.

But if him coming to manage us is against all odds, then that's a chance we've gotta take.

 

You really believe nothing is happening behind the scene's?

There hasn't been a single other candidate leaked or mentioned anywhere for age's now..

We've had close contact's being drip fed from the club to the likes of Stephen McGowan from both parties were relaxed about 2 month ago to him saying it's basically done. Loads of other media outlets stating it's either been a contractual issue to iron out or waiting for his backroom staff to finish their season..

He was reportedly up and looking at our behind the scene's month's ago for about 6 week's..

He's been our number 1 target all along..

Ex player's have been talking about it, it ramped up once it was known he'd be bringing staff with him. Then it's no just 1 or 2 keeping it under wraps and a lot harder to do. Especially when you've got the likes of Burchill there, Hughes a Tim from Glasgow there. Peter Grant potentially in the mix and a close pal of his..

All road's lead to Howe. There's way too much smoke from both side's of the border that tell us that..

I know we're no best run outfit just now but I'd be amazed if he isn't announced by the start of next week at the very latest..

 

So... you prefer to believe people of twitter who genuinely don't have a clue over the 2 main sources Celtic continually leak information too in Stephen McGowan and The Daily Record?

 

That Duncan Castles podcast also had us going for Jose after Spurs sacked him

 

That Duncan Castle knows absolutely * all. Stephen McGowan has been the main source from Celtic and he's usually spot on. I hadn't heard of Duncan Castle until we started getting linked with Howe. He also said we wanted to talk to the Roma manager.

 

Id suspect his contract with Bournemouth like most football contracts is up to the end of May. he s probably getting paid more on "gardening leave" while at Bournemouth and his new contract will be starting 01/06. Most people would do the same if they are to be taking a pay cut which I assume he will be by joining Celtic. Far less any contractural points under his current contract.
The fact that over the last month, there have been NO rumours of anyone else being talked about, etc, reassures me that its going to be Howe. I just hope that there has been work going on behind the scenes regarding new players coming in, and confirmation from Howe of the ones hes happy to be released. Time will tell, but Im not holding my breath to hear any official announcement until next Tuesday.
And of course, no out of work manager will be getting the role, ie Kean, unless we really have screwed up.

 

Aye that's true
