    Redknapp is very old school though so he knows his stuff unlike no mark * like Ohara or Simon Jordan who only remember as far back as year 2000 coincidentally when we started to hear the your league is a farmers league bullshit

    Harkin has almost 12 years experience at Man City relating to player recruitment and the City Football Group network.

    My point regarding Kennedy was about getting the support structure in place with coaches, recruitment and analysis that would allow someone like Kennedy the chance to succeed; that is not me advocating for him getting the job but I'd have him ahead of guys like Keane.

    See with a guy like Harkin, giving up the resources and abilities to sign any old talent because of money and England perhaps at face value appearing easier to sign obscure youth.

    Coming up here would surely be a massive shock to the system, walk through the door, set himself up in his office and go about his business only to find we don't even have half the capabilities to sign talent like city can.

    To me it sounds like another recipe for disaster.

    I think it’s obvious the only stumbling block in announcing Howe is the DOF. He wants Richard Hughes and it looks like he won’t take the job if Celtic don’t take Hughes. I wanted Howe but I’m not sure this is the best way to go about it. As many have said we need a plan in place that will progress us for the next decade, not another 2/3 year plan that leaves us in the same position we are now but only further down the line.

    Agree with your comments regarding the Huns but outside of Scotland most will look at managing them in the same light as us
    They will expect our league etc to be a two horse race again with titles going back and forth. (Won’t happen if we get our * in order)

    To an extent yes. But. Howe knows he can work with his man and vice versa. Who knows if Howe accepted Harkin as DoF that they could work together. Could be a match made in heaven or another jock brown Wim Jansen scenario

    We don’t know the ins and outs but I have sneaky suspicion he will still be linked with city in some way I’ll go back and use frimpong as an example his value wouldn’t have surged the way it did if he was at Melbourne New York granada or city reserves theirs a benefit their of us taking fringe players and adding value they made a tidy profit on frimpong for doing nothing

    The silence is starting to worry me.

    I thought it was nailed on but wouldn’t be surprised it if collapses now.

    Usually the more silence the better when it comes to us though.

    I suppose so, I’m probably just an impatient *. Will be a relief if/when he gets announced.

    Harkin is a Loan Manager for the City youth team. That involves finding suitable loans for youth players that Pep wants to get some first team experience. And once they are out on loan, making sure they are happy. That is not recruitment and it's nothing like a DoF.
    We, in all honesty, could do with one of them ourselves.

    I'm confused as to why no announcement has been made, maybe, just maybe another club is tapping him up & Howe is second guessing the deal.
