New Mariners Coach?

[Kareem]

I was happily reading yet another of his Carle articles- and I came across this extremely interesting paragraph
http://www.theworldgame.com.au/blogs/halftimeorange/pim-finally-lets-nicky-out-of-the-pound---193531

On to another matter.

For the past few weeks Ive been hearing a story, vouched for by a number of well-connected individuals in Australian football, that a manager with Australian national-team experience is being lined up to possibly join Central Coast Mariners with Lawrie McKinna bumped up to another, more senior coaching position with the club.

There has been no official announcement as yet, and the individual involved has denied the move to a journalist colleague of mine, but there is allegedly a concerted push being made by one of the Mariners owners to bring this man to the club to make the most of his experience in Asia.

I cant name this individual because it wouldnt be appropriate when no announcement has been made by the club and he is already under contract elsewhere, but if true it would be a very encouraging development in his career.

As for Central Coast itself, after their horror run in the Asian Champions League and limp end to the last A-League season, they could arguably well do with the injection of some new ideas and a proverbial new lick of paint.

Good luck to all concerned.

I'm sorry this wasnt put in Mckinna Out topic, but this is not so much Mckinna out, more so Mckinna shifted

Arnold is the obvious name that springs to mind.

Arnold is the obvious name that springs to mind.

Please tell me you are joking??

 

[Sean]

and the word Out springs to my mind when Arnold is mentioned.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not mentioning him because I want him here. Just saying he could be the one due to the article mentioning the person has NT and Asian experience.

Interesting... anyone with any inside info know anything about this?

 

[midfielder]

HMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm ... very interesting I wonder how much HTO knows... my guess would be a foreign coach with LM going to the academy or a PR role..

 

[Ursus]

that a manager with Australian national-team experience

If it is not Arnold or heaven forbid, Kosmina, it must be a manager from pre A-league times.

 

[Ursus]

Or a manager who had national team experience as a player. Could be anyone.

 

[Ursus]

GVE?

Hardly a more senior position.
Hard to guess a more senior coaching position than manager of the A-League team.
Maybe a new position as director of football. Is that more senior?

Guus!

Cannot imagine it is Arnold Out ... maybe Guss's assistant who is at Baca (cannot spell his name starts with N) but not as a head Coach... Franky Farina ..

Former coaches .. Terry V, David Hill (just put that in I know he was not the coach) .. what about some of the more junior coaches .. the guy doing the U 20's now ...

Johan Neeskens the one your talking about?

IF we get Arnoldout, then we really truelly are screwed. End of.

But I can't think of anyone else, would we tolerate GvE? or Kosmina even? Could be someone whose actually played, as opposed to coaching in Asia...interesting times

 

[marinermick]

With all his experience now Arnold would make an excellent A-League coach despite his Spirit history almost a decade ago.

Kosmina would be an unmitigated disaster. We would be pumping in the first season but then it would be FAIL.

Terry Venables??

Has been linked with an A-League club before.

Paul Wade?
