It's not like he needs to physically be in Oldham to read applications. There's no actual skill assessment involved, unlike some professions. Reading applications? After this long? I fuckin hope not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you can. There is no requirement to prove it, just a requirement to actually pay it. Are you saying that every football club must have funds set aside to show they can meet long term player/manager contracts? Do they deposit the funds in an escrow account or something? What the tell are you talking about? Even if a club had to do as you say, what is to stop them spending those funds on something else the day after?

I've never heard anyone say review interviews after interviews. You'd say review candidates or review applications. He can't win at this stage either way. He'd likely have got hammered if someone was in the job within days because he'd rushed an appointment. Hes getting hammered off some because nobody in yet even though weve won 3 and drawn one as things stand. I'd rather we took our time and got the best. Even if that decision comes that PW has for the foreseeable future and take it as each game comes. If things are going wrong, change it. If not, leave it. If, as people suggest, the transfers are being made from up above, January doesn't matter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case what's to stop us saying to a Championship manager for instance we will pay you triple what you are on now then two months later saying actually mate we can't afford that now, soz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say there is nothing to stop us doing exactly that. BUT if you were the interviewee wouldn't you want to know if it was feasible? In our clubs case you would say definitely not and move on.

Nothing would stop us doing that. What are you going on about? Why would we or anyone do that though? We would be in breach of contract and he could sue us for the balance.
