Jobs for the boys

"Levi will formally join the Club next month, and will spend the next two weeks transitioning into the new role...."

I thought transitioning meant something else these days?

Whilst I welcome the appointment I didn’t see the gig advertised widely. From a governance perspective roles like this and for that matter the managers position should be advertised. (Apologies if I’ve missed the job ads).

Bet he's gutted Vaughan still isn't around

Regarding the manager, didn't PH say that they wanted a quick appointment and if they went out to the open market they would be required by the EFL to comply with all sorts of procedures: equal opps, diversity of candidates, etc, no doubt lots of paperwork and the Chairman's inside leg measurement, and it would take much longer.

You might say it is a bit 'old boys network', but in the circumstances it was the most practical method.

Indeed. Levi is a good guy and will do a good job, but this seems to be another in a long list of unadvertised "jobs for the boys".

I thought I saw the job on a card in Duttons window

But it might have been an advert for a used cello

Let’s hope that the new CEO keeps his lips tight when it comes to new contracts, new signings and players leaving, instead of telling the chosen few who then love to announce it on social media prior to the official announcements.

Possibly one of the most important jobs that needed to be filled.
Needed someone with Football League or National League experience in the role.
Instead we go for a cheap option, this could come back and bite us big style.

Very fair point this

[Bigfathoss]

Is there a pen-pic or biog? Not everyone is in the inner sanctum.

Seriously why do some people have to be negative and disrespectful to others. Our chairman has made it very clear that they have been impressed by the work Levi Gill has been doing behind the scenes at Barrow AFC - instead of mouthing off get behind the whole club or go and support AFC Fylde!
