BlyBlyBabes 0 Posted October 16, 2007 According to the dodgy rumours site:Rumours regarding new Norwich manager are not even that. Current names being bandied around include those put forward by mischiveous Ipswich fans and optimistic Norwich ones. Here is the truth. Jim Duffy is clear favourite amongst the board–their sanctioning of his loan move for Hartson is proof of that. Duffy will be interviewed AFTER the other candidates, which will be at the London Hilton tomorrow (Monday). There are four, two in the morning, two in the afternoon and as follows–AM– Glenn Hoddle, Nigel PearsonPM– Ian Crook, Peter ReidDuffy''s interview will be at Carrow Road on Thursday. The Board were surprised at Hoddles application but do not think they can offer him the funds or salary he would likely expect–hence his being first. Crook may well end up being offered an Assistant Manager role, though Duffy has expressed a desire for BRyan Gunn in that position. Peter Reid fits the bill with his record of promotions, though the Board are worried he has been out of the game for too long. Pearson is the big outsider, he was recommended to the Board and Ms Smith by Sir Bobby Robson. Mate on the Norwich City boardhe says Richard Money, Sean O''Driscoll and Peter Taylor being interviewedWell, at least it''s a bit more to chat about at lunchtime, eh?[:)]OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieman 0 Posted October 16, 2007 I don''t think it will be Duffy. The interviews start tomorrow, and the board do appear to realise they CANNOT fob us off this time. They will go for an experienced manager this time around. Dunno who, but I''m certain we won''t be going for someone with no or limited experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlucky Fried Kitten 0 Posted October 16, 2007 Duffo will be incredibly cheap and undemanding, so they''re bound to plump for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
