Is preseason starting soon. We would have thought we would have sorted out the management by now to prepare for preseason. Ill go back on the A-league thread and put more bullshit stuff about other clubs because nothings happening to city....yet Mate, don't panic. We're not dealing with a two-bit club here, we're dealing with City Football Group who are going to dot all the "i's" and cross the "t's" before they announce anything or anyone. IIRC interviews took place in Manchester in the second half of May. It's now only the 7th of June. First a contract offer has to be accepted, and then all the finer points worked out. Accommodation in Melbourne, if married for a wife and probably children as well, education for any school-aged children, relevant visas, travel, insurances, health arrangements. etc. etc. No doubt affairs to be sorted in the guy's home country - letting the house, perhaps who's going to look after say a child with one year to go at a European university and doesn't want to move here. What do I bring, what do I leave/sell? And so on and so forth. It's not just a matter of the guy packing an overnight bag and walking out of one life and into another. The same goes for players, especially any from overseas. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that no announcement doesn't mean a choice hasn't already been made.

Some supporters need to relax I've even seen a few people complaining that the new kit hasn't been announced even though we got last seasons kit in like September.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXCiTyZeNXx Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Look i understand where you guys are coming from. But Wellington have signed 2 coaches, Newcastle signed the old Victory coach (who won victory 2 titles) and leaked with getting Petratos , Brisbane has signed Khalfallah and 1 other but i forget who, victory signed Rys Williams and sydney signed a perth defender but i forget who. I would have thought, considering we are owned by CFG we would have already been looking for coaches while Valkanis was coaching us during the season.

Do you want all the momentum now when almost no-one from the general public or media has any interest in the A-League and most City members have put their City gear on the top shelf of the wardrobe, or do you want it in September/October when it really matters?

Dylan Posted June 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 My theory of the next coach is o/s manager, lots of experience, can also be here to help Kisnorbo, Sorenson and Cahill with coaching etc. I also think we will probably see Cahill come of the bench for the vast majority of games to preserve him for the world cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
