I've been saying the same thing. It's gone from Thursday she tells us we're starting the interview process as soon as possible to Friday Facebook sorry I mean Carol has employed Flitcroft and he's watching the game Saturday. I have at least 3 interviews when I go for a job so I can't imagine flitz has had a quick call with Carol and then been told bring ya boots on Monday the teams yours.

Why do we assume we know what’s going on? How do we know that Flitcroft is the number one choice? Are we basing it entirely on the bookies, whi generally follow the money, and one or two people on Facebook? It’s crackers. Half the people on here are foaming at the mouth and working themselves up about nothing. 

@TylerB was the "In the Knower" on this one... Told us it was 110%.

To his credit @Vale1995 called him out and said the players he knows were not aware of it being Flitcroft.

They had a little back and forth with Tyler pretty insistent that it was a done deal.

Tyler... do we know what's happened?

Very true. Where is the hard evidence of anyone being interviewed? I did to hear of anyone at the ground on Sat, head nothing directly from the club of any names.

It is all rumour. It honestly could be anyone. Maybe even a surprise top candidate has thrown their hat in late and wants an interview? Perhaps Jim Gannon wants to return?

Did not Micky Adams turn up when Smurf had chosen somebody, or just a Smurf story?

Anyone collecting autographs at the door on Saturday?

Wasn`t Smurf at the second coming?

Not quite. He returned when we were in the whole MOLD fiasco was unfolding, just before the admin and not being able to buy players. Smurfwaite said that Micky Adams being manager was a factor in him buying the club. 
 

In short, Adams returning 1st or 2nd time had no Smurf influence.

There isn't exactly a dearth of managers who could do better forming a queue.  Of course you were warned about this but people just trot names out like everyone wants to manage Port Vale.

Owner Carol Shanahan has revealed she intends to appoint a manager with a proven record of success having whittled down a 'large number of high quality' applications.

She said around 40 of the applicants for the job were backed up by impressive references and worthy of serious consideration.

It's remarkable how many on here are so called "in the know" or "know someone at the Club" but are not prepared to divulge names, yet are easily prepared to break confidences with said contacts. I would not want those individuals as friends of mine! 

We are Vale fans wanting the best for our Club and participating on this forum want news/facts and truths. We do not want the continuing unsubstantiated rumours that can actually do everything but galvanise the fan base.

The club are NOT going to divulge all details of every candidate, NOT going to tell us what sums are involved, NOT going to tell us news that is ficticious .

We do have excellent owners who are well versed in running a business and we need to allow them to bring the best possible for our Club, without the constant tittle tattle about players, contracts, fall outs etc, etc. It is tedious to come on here and try and look between the pages of conjecture to find scraps of intelligent, honest , truthful fact. Yes it's a forum but come on some of you, let's not enter into arguments or inane scam mongering so as to help some people's egos grow.

Let Carol/ Kevin and Co do their job, which any true Valiant knows is absolutely in the full and best interests of our great Club. 

We are at a point in our history when the owners want our FULL support.

This is the curse of the In the Knowers... they would have been better served keeping the confidence of the people who told them until it was sorted.

Now people are disappointed about something that may never have been happening.

This very situation bore one of my favourite OVF moments.
