My God, is that it? Is that honestly, really it? I've got longer handshakes from politicians.

Hi General,

Please pass it on to Mr Lerner that Kev mac is a great chap and done lots for the club but he is not the man for the job :-)

General, we need a big name, a man who will take us the next level. I don't feel Kavin MacDonald is that man. He is a reserve team coach, not the manager of a club with ambitions to break into the Champions League.

"Hi Randy, I'm sorry to call you out of the interviews but K Mac is a non starter I'm affraid. Some random blokes on the internet said he's not good enough."  :P

Dave is right though Maz.

If he really wanted it then he should have been vocal about it sooner. Too much of a Mr Nice Guy for me and if it is him and he only gets it after the transfer window closes then that would be very annoying.

It is hard to imagine how we could compile a list of targets, research them all extensively, spend ages getting the right appointment in, and conclude that the best man for the club is the caretaker manager who has no idea of transfer windows, has never managed at any level, let alone the top flight, and has a decidedly patchy record over five games.

The only possible reason for that must be "we couldn't persuade anyone else to take it".  It'd be a sub Graham Turner appointment, for me, and it'd be the end of any chance of getting back the feel good factor, the momentum.

I've defended the board on the accusations that have been levelled on here re transfer spending etc etc, but were we to appoint KM, it would beg the question why we didn't do it before the end of the transfer window. You don't have to be a massive cynic to work out what people are going to think there.

If Kev is appointed, nice guy that he is, great Coach that he is; it says one thing to me - lack of ambition.

Time will tell.
