I presume kendrick has it right. Family reasons?

There isn't another candidate that would excite me like he would have, with the possible exception of Rodgers who I don't think we'll get.

I'd have thought lambert is the leading contender though wasn't there a suggestion he's nit on the list?

I do hope this isn't another example of us being cack handed in our approach. Let's hope they've got something good up their sleeve . . .

Do we know if he was even offered the job...?
A shame if true but far from a disaster...would have been a gamble, all be it an excting one.

Lambert would still be good imo.

What is beginning to concern me is why he turned it down? Was it the money he'd have to spend? Was it just a lifestyle choice?

Hoping it wasn't the former.

Dave W, do you know for a fact that we've not spoken to Lambert? Apologies if you've already answered that one but I don't want to wade through the rest of the thread and it seems pertinent now...

As far as I've been told we haven't.

back to square one chaps. We'd have been better never finding out in hindsight. The thing is, we'll end up with Lambert or even Martinez, both completely solid choices and it will be a bit flat after all of this. Shame because both, pre-OGS knowledge would have been perfectly acceptable appointments, and still will be.

BALLS!!!!!!

I'm certain it was nothing to do with his wife. His boss has waved a load of cash under his nose and told him he can go next time.
