Surely this would be sorted by now!! Who has gone for the position? Have the interviews been held? When will the new candidate start the Job?? Local Wicklow league finals are on this week. Has the club done anything to promote the club at these finals?? Perfect opportunity. Do they even know the finals are on???
Interviews were yesterday in Abbottstown AFAIK
Guys any further developments on this??? Any names? When do they start??
New C.P.O started with Bray on Monday, Frank Gorden is he's name, top bloke. All the best to himQuote:

Speaking to braywanderers.ie General Manager Jack O'Neill said "I would like to welcome Frank to the club and have no doubt his expertise will be a great addition to us. Frank is a local and grew up close to the Carlisle and has many exciting ideas that will bring the club to the next level"
Frank Gordon said " I am really looking forward to the challenge. Bray Wanderers is such an integral part of Bray and has a great reputation as a community club. I think that the benefit of having an Airtricity Premier Division club in the town is something that many other towns of our size would be envious of. I will be working tirelessly to ensure that the club continues the progress it has made over the last number of years".
So what has this guy achieved in his position so far??? Did he have an input in this Gala night? The book? Was he there last night. Haven't heard much else other than the Banners!?
That's strange i was thinking the same myself the other day and was going to post similar...Quote:

Really seems to have brought nothing to the table so far.
Our schoolboy club hasn't heard a word from him since he got the job, completely the opposite to Anto and Aidan before him. I e-mailed him once but never even got a reply. Do the FAI pay his wages, does he exist??Quote:

Big game on Sunday against Drogheda so a chance to make a name for himself. There were a few groups of schoolkids at the UCD match but I don't know if it was down to him. One group were singing.
And singing. And singing. Great to see the kids having a good time thoughQuote:

So do I but I'm not getting paid to be there, surely he should be more high profile than that?Quote:

But what's he actually done since taking up the job? You're giving him ideas, is he acting on them?Quote:
