The bookies don’t take anyone seriously or non-seriously. They take bets and adjust the odds accordingly in a tiny market like this.

OK - “The Market” isn’t taking Appleton seriously then😂

Fact is, he’ll have applied for the Job, BM is probably willing to give him an interview and realistically speaking Nixon will only know that he’s had an interview … He’s will not have a clue about what our board are thinking..

So as things stand he’s one of (and handful , but possibly a dozen) potential candidates who might have had an interview.

He’s no doubt wort listening to, simply because he’s available, but he’s a choice that the board must know won’t go down well at all with the fans…. So he’d be on a hiding to nothing before a ball was kicked…. And he ain’t got the charisma or appeal to turn that around IMHO..

I don't know. Does anybody know why it's taking so long? It's more than a week now.

Hasn’t the deadline for a take over at Derby been extended to 5pm today?
Maybe Rosenior is waiting to see what happens first before making a decision? Assuming he’s our No1 target and has been offered the job of course.
 
I think we just have an interview process to go through and we’re still in the midst of it.

Duff has clearly stalled at Barnsley (probably because we’re his preferred choice) and we won’t be making any decisions until we’ve spoke to all candidates and then most likely spoken at length to the final two or three again.

I agree, the initial shortlist will be maybe 5 or 6 long I think then they will whittle it down to maybe a final 2 or 3 who will then have another longer interview before a decision is made. Middle of next week at the earliest I think before a decision is made.
 
The deadline has been extended yet again, to 5pm today. The question in Roseniors mind will be whether he thinks Blackpool will struggle next season , and if so whether he’d be better stay with Derby who will probably be favourites to go up.
 
It's not just interviews either. They have to negotiate a deal that is acceptable to all parties, and that can take time.

I'd be delighted with Rosenior, he may not have been a Head Coach but it is the next step. He has something Evatt and Duff also don't, recent in depth knowledge of the Championship. Think of all the research and preparation from last season, maybe links to attract some of the Derby kids as well.

In the depth of the Championship 😂 not his fault though!
 
With the uncertainty over derby would we have to pay compensation to them or could he walk away for free? Likewise if fat Mike comes in at the last minute what’s he offering for him and Rooney to stay?

If "what happens next at Derby" is a feature of Roseniors thinking, I wouldn't think he's the man for us...

It's bound to be in his thinking, he could be made redundant imminently if the takeover at Derby falls through.
Anyway an offer at Blackpool would be the chance for him to realise his dream since he was 10 (according to him), at a good level and with a supportive board behind him. I think that he would accept it if offered - given what is in the public domain.

I don't know if this has been posted before, but this a great article by Sean McGinlay giving insights and examples of Rosenior's thoughts on coaching:

If he's using Potter at Brighton as a template for how the game should be played then he won't go far wrong. I particularly like his emphasis on 'bravery in possession'. He values players who try to be adventurous rather than always taking the easy option. Players are vulnerable when they try something and it doesn't come off, the crowd often get on their back. He sees it as a strength.

Maybe but Brighton do get to the edge of the box and start overcomplicating things for the sake of it when it just would be easier to score. Like Critchley's Blackpool team did. They were getting jeered out of the Amex at times last season because their home form was shite when it came to having to force the issue.

I'm hoping the next one in here believes in a possession based game but at a tempo where the players are allowed some individual thinking and risk taking. To shoot if there's a shot on. Instead of having to continually look for the extra pass to try to work the same shapes and angles for a six yard tap in to keep the xG Stat Gods happy.

Ha, indeed, but Derby were/are a mess, to piece together a rag tag of journeymen and kids at the last minute and prepare, coach them to what would have been safety is a credit to Rooney, Rosenior and all their first team coaches.

I'm just going on motd highlights really. Especially that thrashing of man u. Thought that was entertaining, attacking football at its best. Granted utd were crap that day but still. The pundits were all praising Potters work over the season, saying they just need that striker to be a real force next season. Maybe then they won't be overcomplicating stuff around the box. Finishing ninth ain't too bad though.
Generally though they're a well run club with the right philosophy on the game, and if we do get Rosenior it's useful to know what type of football he might employ.

My thoughts exactly.
It’s a bit of a shame though if he’s waiting to hear the outcome of a takeover deadline at the club he’s at now as a No2 instead of chomping at the bit to be a No1 at a championship club.
That said we’ve already lost our first team coach/manager to be a No2 elsewhere. 😩

I think Potter is the modern English coach being trained in the art of getting too het up about players taking risks, losing the ball and getting hurt so wants control over every aspect. Walk the ball into the net.

What was it Critchley said about Dougall's two shots that got us promoted. I told him I didn't want him shooting as he's too wayward.

That's why you only tend to see these lads having a go and busting out the moves on the rare occasion the opposition almost do your job for you, like Man Utd in that game you watched, or Birmingham at our place. They can feel the tension ease on the touchline and know they're not on a rollocking for it.

It's this type of coach we'll probably attract next because that's how we're set up. But someone who can put their own twist on it and who still values some simplification in the game wouldn't be a bad thing.

Here's a bit of simplification from when he was temporarily in charge of Derby as part of a four man team after Cocu was sacked, pre Rooney.
'Before you speak about tactics or playing style, you need to compete. You need to win headers, you need to win second balls, you need to track runners'. In many ways that's the hardest part of the game and its not always pretty. He was a full back at the top level for years so that part of the game should be in his DNA.

Sounds OK to me. The objective for anyone coming in here is to make the whole greater than the sum of parts, which does need some deeper thinking. But you're still dealing with lge1/2 lads trying to compete in the Championship and sometimes the simple instructions are the best ones.

I'm hoping, if LR gets the job, there'll be a shed load of Championship players he will have contacts with.
