Good interview, there's a part two as well in the next file.
So there's two candidates who are Australasian (probably Australian) but neither can be decided on because neither are available yet, but will be in the next week or two. It's a reasonable assumption then that the Phoenix are waiting for the A-League season to finish. If the candidates were contracted to an NPL team then they're only a few games into their seasons.
Probably rules out Okon, Poppa, and yes, Farina, and we're then looking for an active assistant or head coach.
We were connected with Gombau a few weeks back and WSW seem to want him out for some reason, otherwise we were also connected with Jean-Paul de Marigny who is the Victory assistant.
Speculation alert: it probably suggests a coach aligned with a club that is NOT going to play in the finals this year, as these are not over in a week or two. So it could well include Okon as well as Gombau (but both sound somewhat unlikely to me as potential Nix candidates). Strangely enough I think it might be someone from the left field that we have not yet considered.
