Except he's more South African than British.Henry Irving said:
fair enough. Thanks for the info?scabbyhorse said:Cannot put his name on this forum sorry
So to sum up your source said Riga was here (in the UK? at the Valley? at the Training ground?) but since then Riga has said no and so Chris "British manager in the network" OLoughlin is in the frame.
Am I reading that right? @scabbyhorse1 -
What a circus this club is.0

Its almost like KM is thinking the following...
This Chris bloke is ruining my club St. Truiden, what can I do to get rid of him...!! Hang on, the Charlton fans are moaning they want a British Manager, they can have Chrissy boy (Its almost Chris Powell), then I can get a better Manager for my club!!1 -
This has got legs it seems0

Whoa, back up a bit. Never would of thought Riga would turn us down, just putting it out there what i was told.colthe3rd said:scabbyhorse said:Riga is 100% back.
Do like him BUT to me having him back just shows total and utter contempt for the fans again.The next appointment after Riga will be interesting.
Both from the ITK person? You know that person in your head you talk to doesn't count right?scabbyhorse said:Riga turned it down.....no Riga

Sint-Truiden coach, Chris O’Loughlin, talks about his first job as Orlando Pirates assistant coach and knocking out Mamelodi Sundowns.
The 37-year-old was promoted from assistant coach to head coach at Sint-Truidense when former head coach, Yannick Ferrera, decided to take the Standard Liege job ahead of the current campaign.
O’Loughlin, who grew up in Cape Town, is the youngest South African to ever be appointed as head coach of a team in a major European league and he explains his rise to the big time.
“It’s been a long road. When I came back to SA from Ireland in 2005 I thought, ‘The 2010 World Cup is around the corner. Let’s see if I can get a coaching opportunity.’ I had my UEFA B badge at the time,” O’Loughlin told Soccer Laduma.
“People told me, ‘It’s impossible. You’re inexperienced. You’ll never coach a top side.’ My first f**king job was as Orlando Pirates’ assistant.
“Then I went to Congo and they said I was crazy. I knocked Mamelodi Sundowns out of the CAF Confederation Cup with AS Vita in 2009, and we went to the quarter-finals.
“Then I went back to Europe and they told me I’d never make it. You can see where I am now. I’ve come a long way and my network is slowly growing, which is important in football and something that did not seem possible seven years ago.”
Seems he's actually South African who was originally British... And he's got anger management issues7 -

Two questions.
Is the Riga turning us down based on credible info, or just a guess because of the silence?
Is the O'Loughlin link based on credible info, or just clutching at straws based on how is at RD's clubs?0 -
St Truiden's record since late September... won 3, draw 2, lost 9 (includes 1 cup defeat).9

He's only 37-years old though so guess he's from the Mourinho school of coaching (i.e. never played the game)IA said:

Scabby's source is usually somewhat accurate, so i'll take the turn down as an unexpected turn.
I wonder if Riga was trying to get some kind of funding promise from the board, when that was declined so did he.0
