Lee Briers in the mix now apparently, doubts over Arthurs long term commitment

I think the longer it’s taking the less likely it’s Arthur as I would have thought it would be a quick ish appointment

I hope we don't go unproven option again.

Briers would be a gamble but is highly thought of wherever he has coached.
Having said that the assistant role is always easier than the head coachs role so who knows.
If we won`t pay the asking price for Rowley and Arthur is looking for a deal closer home than Briers for me is the 3rd choice on the rank.
I`m not too convinced about Demiterou personally.

Briers is another shot in the dark. how many have worked? we need tried and tested this time. you get what you pay for

Briers and Demetriou are too much of a risk / gamble for mine. I hope we stay away.

We need a proven head coach at this time. We're just not in the right place to be taking what would be a massive gamble.

It seems a lot longer, but it's less than two weeks since Smith left, isn't it? Week 1 - Indentify and interview obvious candidates. Week 2 - Interview wider candidates. Week 3 - Make decision and announce. I'd say we are still on schedule and despite a couple of purely speculative pieces in the RL media, Rowley and Arthur are still firm favourites.

This is too big a job for an unproven coach.

I don't know who will be next in line, but I do know that I hate the RL term 'for mine'.
