Alan Curbishley

[Hitman34]

Chat went like this. Started off with mentioning Timmy as being the favourite for the job as hes Les' mate.


Alan you are 22=1 for the job. How come you still getting linked woth jobs after 7 years out of the game?

Well probably cos ive had a coupe of promotions from the division and my record isnt too bad they just always put me in the mix.

So does that mean we can rule you out then?

No, no no no. I didnt say that. You never know. I know Les as well you know. Ha ha ha.

So he's a mate of les too, no thanks.

7 years out of the game, he probably cannot remember what shape a football is.

Have you ever heard of a manager who didn't have a problem with a player at one time or another? Feel free to post what Danny said at length, I'd like to read it. But for me Curbishley is more than a safe pair of hands, he's a proven manager who kept a bang average Charlton side in the Premiership for ages and a decent tactician as well. And someone who knows how to build a squad. And he's kept his hand in working with Fulham last few years too.

It was along time ago I couldn't recall all of it but the way I recall D S didn't fall out with him but he claimed he and other young players didn't feel part of Charlton something about A C ignored them while walking past them in the corridor never spoke to didn't know their names , but if your happy to have fair does but not for me

He hasn't. And since then he's been a pundit. So at best out of the game less than a year.

To be honest, however long he's been away from management isn't too much of a concern for me. He is well respected in the game, tactically sound, decent in the transfer market and was renowned for picking the best team in a consistent formation week in, week out. That's all I ask for in a manager personally.

To look at it another way, Karl Robinson has been out of the game for a matter of a few months, and Curbishley should be ahead of him in the pecking order.

Been out the game for a hell of a long time now , doesn't make him a bad manager but you wonder why he hasn't been involved in the game for so long

He hasn't.

"On 24 December 2013, Curbishley was appointed technical director at Premier League side Fulham.[22] In February 2014 following the appointment of a new manager at Fulham, Felix Magath, Curbishley was sacked after less than two months in the role.[23] He rejoined the coaching staff on 5 March 2015, to work alongside Kit Symons, for the remainder of the 2014-15 season.[24] On 9 November 2015, Curbishley took charge of Fulham's first-team training following the sacking of Symons.[25]"

Interesting one. Could be a diamond. What's he been up to lately? I fear he may be ranked alongside Gerry Francis and Steve Coppell? In the sense he knows his business but been gone too long? Unfair maybe. Would have him above alot of other names mentioned though

[skranger]

Was a good manager but been out of management for too long

[dogsrrs]

Doesn't make it bad man management because 1 player has a fall out.

Well if you like but D S did go into far more detail than that

[knocker]

Came here on loan and publicly stated there was way he would go back to Charlton while Curbishly was there
