Wow we are a laughing stock.
Absolute joke. This is actually embarrassing - not so much Ross Lyon being coach but the way we've courted him and Clarkson and how its blown up in our faces.
Is that your take on it?
Not mine.
Clarko had/has the job if he likes the offer and wants it. He's a current coach only a week out of the game, and has runs on the board. No brainer.
Lyon has been a potential candidate for the position all along.
Lyon said no one from Carlton had spoken to him when he made it obvious he was interested in the Head Coach role at Carlton. On the night Teague's sacking was announced, Sayers made it perfectly clear that he was setting up a Sub Committee to select a coach: the best coach. He also said it would be remiss of him not to have a plan A, B, C, D and E when thinking of options outside Teague: Lyon was one, Clarkson was the other, there was obviously at least 2 others, d, and e.
Since then Sayers did not say the Head Coach job was offered to Lyon, but said he did have a 45 minute chat about the process to find the Head Coach, and the role of the sub Committee. That's it.
I didn't watch that crap show Footy Classified, run by What A Croc Media. That show is all about headlines and panelists to make headlines, or, else, Hutchy would just sack them if they didn't.
Lets wait to see what this process is about.
I always believed that the consensus was that Clarkson was the best in the business, and everyone and anyone (with out hatred of Clarkson for the Battle of Britain, and/or the Fev gang up) agreed that any team that had the opportunity to sign Clarkson as their Head Coach was a winner, therefore no decision process needed.
I also thought the majority of Carlton supporters and footy tragics wanted to see Carlton run proper process to find the best coach for our list.
