Back to the subject at hand. Hudson and two others.
Any prophetic people out there?
Its hard enough to guess outcomes when you know who's in the contest. Impossible when you don't know!
Well we know the 3 shortlisted are all overseas based (for now).
And we know Hudson is the man of choice. And we know Farina, Dowie, Butcher & Sanchez all applied. So I'd pick Hudson Farina and one of D, B & S as the three. Gawd.
Thats the scary part is that you are probably right ... Not exactly inspiring us with confidence.
Hudson is being touted as the first choice but there is still no evidence he has actually put in for the job (ie like a clear statement from him) and he is contracted to Bahrain but we do know, apparently from UK press links, that unemployed Dowie, Butcher and Sanchez have, along with a quoted Farina. My guess is it's down to Dowie, Butcher and Farina from what I've read - any of which I'd be very unhappy with. I'd much prefer the Rufer brothers or Emblen if DBS or F are the only other option.
Why it has to be an overseas coach who knows nothing about NZ players or competitions beats me? The same thing with Andy Martins appointment. It smacks a bit of the old cultural cringe (thinks - what would Bluebottle do?).
