According to interview on Kent On Line, Barrie Hobbins is looking for a young and ambitious manager.

Alan Kimble, Assistant Manager to Liam Daish for 4 years at Ebbsfleet, would be an ideal choice as Manager for Welling.   I am sure that he would not deterred by the "limited" budget that Andy Ford was not able to work with.   It is highly likely that Alan Kimble has an extensive Contact List, in view of his playing and management experience. and would give total commitment to the job.    

That was an interesting read. I can see both sides of the story really although I think overall Fordy was using the budget as an excuse to leave.

Alan Kimble would not be a bad choice in my view, he will bring contacts and has experince of being an assistant as did Adie.

 Cheers Tony

Don't tell anyone but I'll let you into a little secret.
I've just returned home after an afternoon with representatives from Welling United. Got the call last night and was invited out to lunch today in Zorba's restaraunt down the high street. After a nice meze and a few bottles of Greek beer the contract was pushed over to my side of the table for my legal team and myself to cast our eyes over. All seemed to be there in black and white, no hidden agenda, just a good old plain simple contract.
When asked about the benefits I was informed of the following;
Free entry to home matches.
Free programme.
Free cup of tea.

As a young (156) and ambitious person with excellent man-management skills and a proven track record of success in subbuteo I know I fit the criteria.

I'm going out down the Falconwood Club to think it over.

How about Jamie Day as Player Manager

---

Thanks Jamie

Weve been there with Robbins, too much pressure on inexperienced Manager. Even though Jamie is doing his badges. Could be a player Assistant though .

     In My opinion, I would Like to see a manager with contacts (an im not talking lenses), 
     Ok I'm a relative new comer to the club and some of the Old Players mentioned Are new names to me. But as I've mentioned before Dack was a great asset to the club because of his Contacts. Therefore If The Club Could Get someone with Higher league experience I feel this would help, The Other side of this would probably be what wages they would want as experience costs!!

   Not Knowing much about The Compensation Payments Would the club have to Find a manager who is Currently Unattached.?




Ps.... As A Woman It Would Be Preferable to Have A Manager With Nice LEGS and 2 Of Them Would Be Nice Or what with equal oppotunties, pc, etc...  Hope Powell and we can chat about Avon!!!! Hahaha

I'm doing quite well on soccermanager.com...

What Terry Robbins up to nowdays?

OK, so at the moment, we are in the deep stuff and possibly even an experienced manager would not be able to lift us away from where we stand at the moment.
So what about bringing back Chris Moore as manager?  He has been in the game long enough and surely has contacts. I appreciate that he hasn't got the qualifications at this level, but everyone has to start somewhere.

Definitely need someone experienced who has been in the game, Fordy had a break.

I am sure the club will let slip the calibre of applicants in the next few days . I do feel they SHOULD advertise it. I guess they have their reasons for not advertising it.

Trig - i be your able assistant, if your DESPERATE -BBB

 

Just to let you all know... I've turn the position down as first team coach, they only expected me to do an eight hour day. I've never done a day's work in my life and I'm not going to start now. Apologies to all those who sent me letters and left telephone messages for me to take it.

I heard yesterday that Jamie Day is in line for a return to us, possibly as a player manager, looked on Dartfords forum and there seems a bit of concern he did not play yesterday

And what I forgot to add was, we need an experienced man for this. Maybe someone who's come in and rescued a club before. So someone of Andy Ford's ilk basically.

The good part about Daisy if he did come back in some way is you get a decent midfielder with 4 or 5 years in him.

If he was thinking of the future then a return in some capacity would benefit him. Like others though we need experience and contacts in the situation we are in.

Unless Lee gets them firing pretty quickly.

Someone has been posting Jamie is coming back for a year on here. With 30 applications you would assume at least 15 of those would be "more right" than appointing Daisy at this time. That is not to say that at some stage in the future he wouldnt be a good choice for coach or manager.

People such as Mooro, Abbo, Daisy would be fine as reserves coach for a year, building up to number 2 then manager.

We simply need a hard, experienced but youngish Manager or a manager and assistant who have got results elsewhere.

Would be nice to hear some of the names that have applied. We could all be talking about people but far better candidates have applied.

of the names so far Alan Kimble would seem to be a good chice interms of ecpereice and contacts and if Abbo was his no 2 I would be happy with this.

Mind you thats probably put the pox on the lot of it
