nolando Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Narduch posted this in another thread but it probably deserves its own now: Ives Galarcep @SoccerByIves 37m I'm told Fire owner Andrew Hauptman previously considered Yallop as technical director, likely how he moved so quickly to hire him as coach Ives Galarcep @SoccerByIves 45m I'm told Yallop is being hired as the head coach. No combo GM-coach position like Bruce Arena as of now.https://twitter.com/SoccerByIves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonovision Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Out of curiosity I looked up what Teitur Thordarson is doing these days. Managing Norwegian 3rd division. Wonder what kind of gig Rennie lands. Back to NASL, another MLS gig, or something in Europe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youllneverwalkalone Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 If this is true, it really makes me think Yallop was a distant plan C. I'm assuming Carl Robinson is plan B, but who are the A-List candidates? Bob Bradley? Holger Osieck? Juan Carlos Osorio? Does anybody from Montreal recall the nature of that rumour that JCO was going to replace Schallenbaum? Was that complete rubbish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Juan Carlos Osorio to Canada rumour but not him replacing Schalibaum. Given that we made the playoffs Schallibaum's contract has renewed unfortunately but I would take JCO over him in a heartbeat. He wouldn't be a guy to sit back and let Joey and NDS run the team which would be a positive. I think he would be an upgrade over Rennie but worrying is he is a bit mercurial and hasn't stayed at any club for very long. Bradley or Ossieck would be very good signings also, particularly Bradley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder if he talked to the Impact about Nelson Rivas. I doubt he was talking about it for the job, unless Schallibaum told the Impact FO that he's going back to Switzerland at the end of the year, which I highly doubt.

youllneverwalkalone Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 ^I guess where I was going with this is whether it might have been a Caps inquiry that led to something getting mixed-up? I believe it came up in June sometime, when the Rennie-out crowd had really started to form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
