New Manager Search *BACK ON*

[Templeton Peck]

Seems like all the itk “done deals” were a load of bollocks.

Yep. Done at the weekend apparently. It would make sense too to tap him up before going through formal channels.

 

[Kenny]

No, but you normally get a feel for if they're interested before you officially approach.

Not defending our wonderful approach to things but it does happen

We had it with Zinchenko, all agreed and he changed his mind after sleeping on it. Curbs did it to us. So it seemed everything was fine, he was happy to move then slept on it and decided against it

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

And whoever we approach next knows they're at the very least third choice.

Managers don't care about that. Thankfully.

 

[Walnut]

If he was officially offered the job, and as turned us down what more can the club do.

 

[sycophantia]

Can only assume he didn't think he was gunna be in control of transfers enough or told there was no money to spend in January.

They usually are.

You can add yet another week to the waiting time now, followed by an undoubtedly underwhelming appointment

 

[Templeton Peck]

I was excited about the appointment. We've not appointed an up and coming manager since McGhee. Nuno? Bosz? Fuck knows

 

[EpsomWolf]

Gives a clear indication that once any candidate drills right down into the detail any manager with any self-worth and integrity is going to say ‘Fuck that’.

Pretty much leaves us with the desperadoes to choose from. What a state of affairs.

Completely unacceptable things have come to that.

tbf we had to approach him officially to appoint him. It may not necessarily be anyone from Wolves that announced the approach.

There's got to be more to this than that. Every bookie suspended the market which would imply he was about to sign an hour ago.

You do realise bookies are only trying to make money on any outcome. When “wolves approach Beale” why would you take bets when you think it’s a formality.

They shouldn’t have suspended the betting as they’d have made a killing in hindsight

Every single transfer of player or manager involves a level of tapping up. Due diligence etc, either something has changed or we haven't done our due diligence.

 

[Wolvensam]

Be interesting to see if they keep this "up and coming British manager" approach now. Who else is there?

The coach at Chelsea was meant to be a contender.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Gutting. What a farce.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Look how the club is run compared to QPR. Why would you want to join us.

When you know you can continue at QPR and use it as a stepping stone to a club who don’t have a super agent running the show with an over promoted youth coach as front and a CEO who knows nothing about football.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

I find it hard to believe Beale wasn’t interested in the idea of moving to a PL team. I doubt he believes he won’t keep us up so perhaps he’s thought about it and realised that if he keeps doing a good job at QPR a better offer will come along. The kind of offer that’s more attractive simply because Mendes won’t be lurking in the shadows.

 

[BGreenWolf]

What an absolute farce.

To go for a manager with 16 competitive games is a risk- to then be rejected by him is a humiliation.

 

[WsWolf]

If he was officially offered the job, and as turned us down what more can the club do.

If we can't convince a bloke who's only won 8 games as a coach with the incentive of a massive payrise and miles more exposure then we have the wrong people in charge of the hiring process.

Beat me to it by seconds!

 

[Wolvensam]

Another alternative is he's loyal and doesn't want to jump ship at QPR after 15 games. But then why make an official approach in the first place?
