I know they're owned by the Pozzo Family so get a good few of their players from their Network (which works) yet cant think of too many players who have really come through into their First-Team, Lloyd Doyley one of a few surely?
An A Licence minimum is required to be full time manager. If Kewell is working towards his pro licence, he already has the A licence.
The UEFA Pyramid:
Level 5, UEFA Pro Licence (focus on how to manage) A mandatory qualification for managing in the FA Premier League and UEFA competitions. Most candidates complete in 12 months
Level 4, UEFA A Licence (focus on phases of play, 9v9 games and 11v11 match play) Work as a manager/coach in the professional game, or Academy Manager. Most candidates complete within 2 years.

Level 2, Certificate in Coaching Football (focus on how we coach, play, support and the future player) Find work in Football in the Community, local authorities, US soccer camps. You have 3 years to complete, but it can be achieved in 6 months. PFA members can start their coaching pathway at this tier.
Level 1 Useful for local community work, and can be completed in a few weeks. Not a mandatory qualification, but a gentle introduction.
How did Karel Fraeye get the gig then, having only manged to come 156,386th on Football Manager 2014 on Xbox?

He got his A licence whilst part of the coaching set up at KAA Gent I believe.

If Kewell is working towards his pro licence, he already has the A licence. Bowyer we know to have at least the B licence.

When there is a void, it has to be filled with speculation. No harm done, Shows we care.
The Adrenaline rush Lee Bowyer got on Saturday would have been the most since he hung up his boots. Just my opinion but I'm certain that he wants the job to the end of the season, and then see what's on offer.
Even you guys that have connections with various groups in the take over process DON'T have access to the mind of Roland Duchatelet.
My fear is that his spite at being slated by the British press and ridiculed by Charlton fans since day 1 for his network and ways of running a football club will result in him being even more obstinate and perverse in the process of selling cafc. This is already coming to fruition with this impasse and Duchatelet seemingly playing one suitor against another. Losing one million a month would speed up the proceeding for most entrepreneurs, but our problem is Roland's brain is wired up in a unique way.
This roller coaster still has more ups and downs to come. Hold on tight.
I agree about Bowyer.
However, I don't believe Roland does things out of spite. I don't think he even considers us. His driving force is money and reputation.
I agree, that's sort of what I meant by reputation. But I don't think he would deliberately be nasty or spiteful. I seriously think that we are so far down his food chain that he doesn't consider us. Yes, ego's a good description.

And because of the skilled and innovative protests at the valley and in Belgium his reputation and methods have taken a battering. His reputation is in the gutter any business friends( does he have any ?) Would say jettison this project ASP. He and his financial team are trying to recoup the losses plus have a profit. Does he have the acumen to succeed ? Don't judge Duchatelet like you would other rich business people; He is spiteful and inarticulate. A dangerous combo.
If Kewell has been promised I'm pretty sure Bowyer will know about it and be aware that his stint was only ever going to be a game or two If he's happy with that then we supporters should be also
That would mean that Bowyer knows for sure who the new owners are.
I thought a new consortium had appeared on the scene & started DD last wednesday ? In which case noone knows who the new owners are.
It would be mad if Kewell was installed as manager - his only qualification seems to be that he's Australian. He doesn't have any connection to our club and doesn't have a record of success as a manager.
I could care less about whether a new manager has any "connection to the club." I think this silly policy has set back English football for ages. I want the best qualified and most likely to do well for the job we are hiring for. English football is the only place where fans want ex-players to run their clubs even though data is overwhelming that such has no bearing on success as a manager.
Now, as to the point "he has no record of success as a manager"... on that I agree.
It's COULDN'T care less... The only Americanism that makes my blood boil because their way makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
The data shows it makes no difference to success as a manager. Neither does whether they were a good footballer or not. Following evidence is not "Americanism"... it is being "rational" and knowing the difference between reality and nonsense.
Think you just got "whooshed" Napa! "Could care less" is the Americanism referred to...
I've got to be honest, before this thread I never realised that, 'could care less' was a saying used by anyone. I thought it was just a typo because it makes no sense.
And I've gotta be honest, the first time I've ever heard of it was in the above post.
Me too......and I lived in California for 3 years, never heard anyone use that expression.
It's pretty common. It's easy to think people are saying "I couldn't care less" because your brain just fills that in logically. But yeah, as it is, it makes no sense.
Darren Purse seen in New Eltham Co-op, not sure if linked.
The Mrs usually makes swing by after getting off the train and I confirm no sightings of Purse but I’ve seen Jimmy Bullard many a time in the Beehive..

A watched kettle close up never boils
But if you shut your eyes for a moment
You end up with a hot steaming face
And no Zits.
