He’s an assistant for a reason.

Weren't they on about him as Vieira's assistant or something?

I know there were some joking around about it.

'EFL green light awaited by Leeds United as the managerial hunt is brought to a conclusion. Takeover confirmation expected to be swiftly followed by appointment. Ducks in a row.

Bit more detail on the search/Marathe's process.'

I find it concerning we've interviewed Patrick Viera and Scott Parker. They're both clueless and even entertaining the thought is a sign of ignorance by whoever the fuck is coming up with these names.

Yup. I've read we're looking at particular criteria, such as Prem experience. Looking at those names it seems he's made a list of obtainable ex-Prem managers willing to come to the Champ (aka Prem failures).

I rely on criteria when I don't know what I'm fucking doing. If I'm making a decision about a topic I'm passionate about I go with instinct and don't need to do a 'filter search'. Criteria is fine to refer to, to help keep focus, but if it's led to interviewing those 2 twats it's clearly being relied on in the absence of knowledge/judgment.

Kinnear is just a corporate arse licker. Knows fuck all about football, just brown-noses the right people. He's so fake, I've met him. Utterly full of shit.

Farke & Parker both have 2 promotions under their belts. Parker has the better record (ppg). We question Parkers ability to handle pressure - and yes it would be a different level here compared to Bournemouth & Fulham. But to say he’s clueless is a bit of a stretch. I’d rather take him than Corberan for example.
I think Vieira is highly rated within the game. He will have been recommended by someone.
