Alloa Athletic Rumours

27 Jul 2013 19:13:38
Expect a busk week at Swindon. Exeter boss Paul Tisdale may not be the next manager, with suggestions current Alloa player-manager Paul Hartley remains the front runner, fitting the boards wish for a 'strong bold British manager'.

The club are still actively seeking to move on Paul Caddis, Luke Rooney and Paul Benson. Caddis to Blackpool could be revived if Swindon agree to a financial 'payoff' package with the player. Rooney and Benson will likely leave on loan.

Agreed.

Swindon are looking at taking players Bradley Diallo, George Okyere, Joseph Debayo, Amadou Tangara and Ike Robertson on trial next week.

Swindon will not be taking any more trialist on at all, they have the squad now and have made offers for Matt Taylor, Matt Holland and Simon Church. the ball is in their court if they accept the offers or not.

Almost definately the new Swindon manager will be Glenn Hoddle, apparently some of the influx of Spurs youth team signings have let this slip. This is the reason for media ban on current tour in Portugal.

I think you mean danny hollands & simon church is on trial at Charlton but wouldn't mind him signing if Charlton decide not to, Wouldn't mind matt taylor either, He has loads of experience & if tisdale becomes manager I think we would have a good chance of signing him.

Simon church, Adam Rooney, matt Taylor, Danny hollands, Daniel Devine and Cameron Stewart will all be town players by the start of the season. Fact.

Hoddle has been approached by Swindon about the managers job but his wages were a MASSIVE stumbling block so he will not come now, Tisdale has been offered the job but its down to compensation between the clubs now as Exeter don't like Swindon after the Troy Archibald-Henville tribunal debacle, watch this space. Tisdale to get the job but it could take a week or more yet to finalise the deal.

I thought Tisdale turned the job down!

Town have already agreed a settlement figure with Rooney

Would prefer tisdale over hartley, I don't think scottish and swindon town work too well

Yeah of course Scots and Swindon doesn't work well. Lou Macari anyone?

No chance will hassler be the new Kilmarnock manager, I've got inside knowledge of who is going to be the new killie manager and that man is alloa athletic manager paul Hartley 100% I guarantee you and talks have been going on for a few weeks now, fellow fans

Motherwell have granted Stuart McCall permision to speak with Sheffield United. If McCall does go to Sheffield United, he will take out of contract Michael Higdon with him. Motherwell will replace Stuart McCall with Alloa Athletic's manager Paul Hartley.

League One, Too bigger step up for Higdon I reckon, far too slow.

Sean O'Driscoll to become Director of Football at Bristol City FC.

Alloa's Paul Hartley (former BCFC midfielder) to become manager with SO'D overseeing him.

BCFC keen to maintain their new youth policy and believe SO'D is the man to instill this in the club.

Under SO'D's mentorship they believe that Hartley will keep the club up and be able to build for next season.

From a BCFC source.

The same Paul Hartley who returned to Scotland because he was homesick? I doubt it

No chance.bcfc in serious money problems and won't commit to long term manager until they no what division they will be in next season.relegation will cause major problems for club.next manager will be appointed till end of season

Paul Hartley to replace Derek McInnes as manager.

The former City midfielder has an impressive record as Alloa boss and still keeps in contact with many of the City playing staff and board. (Murray, Carey, Jon Lansdown)

Lansdown has held informal talks with the Scot and compensation is expected to be reached quickly with Alloa. Lansdown is impressed with Hartley's leadership skills and no-nonsense approach.

06 Jan 2013 18:40:20
He left because he was home sick so no. but he looks like he'll be good in Scotland.

06 Jan 2013 18:16:50
he'll need to team up with someone who has a bit more experience in England IMO

There is a god the sooner this happens the better otherwise welcome to league 1

06 Jan 2013 19:45:23
We need him playing as well!- He would still be better than most of our midfield
