....a defensive midfielder today, then all that's left is to beef up the coaching team.
I suspect that the current job requirements are:
Coaching experience - Should be a given, but appears not for ITFC
Defensive experience - None of the current "coaches" were defenders
Local experience - An ex player and/or someone that is happy in the locale would be preferred
Scouser - Keeps the "Mafia" happy
Managerial aspirations - Ready to step up if/when required
Seems odd that McGreal hasn't joined up, even with a break clause if he finds a management job.
Unless of course Cook doesn't feel comfortable with the potential competition.

think mcgreal's ambition is more likely a stumbling block and that he'd see becoming an assistant as a backward step.
would be fantastic if we could get him |  |

I sat next to him at the Newport match and he was also there at the weekend. |  |

....could be his quickest route back into a managers job.
If you get my drift. | |

Think McGreal was going to be assistant but then he took the Swindon job.
Obviously he's now left that role... |  |

i see your point, but if cook gets sacked with mcgreal alongside him, it probably means that he hasn't had the desired effect on the defence, so wouldn't do his itfc job prospects much good! | |

It really does seem weird that he isn’t here. Maybe he got a chunky pay off from Swindon, or is suing them for breach of contract? |  |

From what I was told that wasn't ever on the cards because he wanted a management job even before Swindon came up. |  | | |

That was essentially how I heard the situation. McGreal wanted a management job and Cook didn't want to appoint someone who might be off in a matter of weeks or months. | | | |

Would be delighted with McGreal. Ticks all the boxes. Cook knows him and he knows tue club. |  | | |
