Hands on Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 "Chairman Simon Corney is yet to appoint Dickov’s successor and although former boss Iain Dowie and new favourite Sammy Lee have both been strongly linked with a return to Boundary Park, Corney told M.E.N. Sport that he has not yet offered the job to anyone. He is in New York on business until next week so hasn’t begun interviewing yet." http://www.mancheste...-league-1301619 FFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeP Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 And they don't have telephones, video conferencing, or Skype in New York Despite this, it does seem to suggest that interviews won't take place until he gets back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 I hope the matter he is reporting and discussing is not "how do we get our money out of this now?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shefflatic Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) lo and behold, matt chambers According to Matt Chambers Dowie has an offer on the table which he is considering. Sammy Lee is not on the radar and no other interviews are planned at this stage Bookies mean :censored: all - sure, Lee may well have applied which someone has then got wind of, bet on it and zooop up to the top of the 50 or so bets already-placed market it goes, utter :censored:e lets see what happens but if nothing is agreed then thats life and we get who we get.

oafc1955 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I reckon Dowie has already agreed a deal........for Simon to go to the US at such an important time and, (according to Matt Chambers) for interviews of other possible candidates to have not even been arranged I reckon Dowie is nailed on!!! Perhaps for Dickov's sake ( he and Corney had become close friends ) they are making it look like the deal hadn't been pre-arranged! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinevillawill Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Mike Keegan tweeted that sammy lee impressed in an interview yesterday I've just read the tweet.

Yeah, it struck me as a "I know :censored: all but this fits with the rumours and makes me sound like I'm in the know" tweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Perhaps Corney is finalising the plans for the new stand with his fellow Amigos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinevillawill Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 From what I can decipher, an offer's on the table and terms are being negotiated. Shame nobody isn't in place for tomorrow but Corney has openly stated that he's in no rush to get the right man. Suppose it's a waiting game. I think people are reading into it too much.

singe Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Even if Dowie were appointed earlier this week, it would be most likely he would let Tony Kirk do the game and he watch from the stands. That's par these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Mike Keegan tweeted that sammy lee impressed in an interview yesterday He didn't. As excharnwoodlatic said, he tweeted this: Mike Keegan @mikekeeganmen Hearing that Sammy Lee has impressed as the hunt for a new #oafc manager continues. That'll go down well.
