We're advertising for a Goalkeeper Coach...
On Facebook.
On f****** Facebook.
How tinpot and amateurish do you want to appear?
Surely the manager should be capable of going out into the wide footballing world and proactively securing a capable goalkeeping coach?
What happens when / if we ever put Mary Poppins out of his misery? Do we advertise on Facebook for a First Team Manager?
I'd say it was unbelievable, but under the Piataks it's very believable unfortunately.
Shambles.

And Twitter/X.
And the O/S.
And no doubt whatever sites Pro Clubs use to advertise within the industry?
Surely the bigger the exposure the better?!

No.
You don't ask for applications at all.
You go out, find the best person for the job and bring them into the club. The best candidates for the job are unlikely to be unemployed and not likely to be looking at the club Facebook page. These folks, most likely, need to be headhunted.
It snacks of desperation to me. Simpson is so unpopular in the game he doesn't know of any goalkeeper coaches who are willing to join, so we're desperately advertising the position.
It's non-league level stuff, not even Conference clubs do this sort of thing to attract coaching staff.

Has anyone ran the idea past Scott Carson?

Advertise far and wide so I’m with ccu on this one.
We’ve been seen as a job for the boys or who you know club previously so try something different to get the best one, you’ll never know who will apply.

I utterly despise facebarf, and deleted my account many years ago.
But we need to move with the times, and as much as I hate the place, there could be a highly thought of GK coach, who`s looking for a move, and one of their friends, sends them the ad, and they apply.
It doesn`t say much for the apparent contacts we have, that we`re casting the net, far and wide, and don`t have someone lined up.
But it`s better than looking in Yorkshire for one.

They'll make it public and then already have an appointment I'm mind , it stops people complaining that they didn't get a chance to apply .

Tom P spoke about moving out of our comfort zone when it comes to recruitment and casting a wider net. You would imagine this will be part of that, I would be interested to know what else we are doing.

Think he meant using analytics, seems they Abbott still has an old school mentality in regard to recruitment, by that he means get friend and family free ticket for matches

Just a suggestion what about the lad from Carlisle whos the asst keeper coach at Blackburn Can you never just name the damned person? The assitant keeper coach at Blackburn is Renshaw and seems to have no links to Carlisle Though it seems the main GK coach is Ben Benson who used to be our u18 coach, that the guy?

I wonder if Adam Collin fancies a move back closer to home?? Last I heard he was working at Mansfield & they’ve not done too bad this season have they? And, of course, being an ex-Blue he ticks the most important box on the job criteria doesn’t he?! 🤣🤣
