Interesting. Three things jump out for me:

1) given PB says that "initial" meetings will now take place, the implication is that no meetings have so far happened. Hmmm.

2) David Burke is notable by his name not being among the interviewers, at least for the "initial" interviews.

3) PB confirms that at least one "coach" (as well as "managers") is on the short list. Not too many of them have been on the list of credible candidates debated on here.

The last point you made, how do you know that then ?

It's nice to be kept informed, but our new man in charge could be British or foreign, experienced or a newbie and either a manager or a coach? We're non the wiser but we are a little closer to finding out

Point 3, you mean? The first sentence - PB says it in the press release. The second sentence - most of the candidates debated on here so far have been managers, not coaches.

Burke is NOT in a position above the manager, at best he is equal to the manager in some regards. Why on earth would he be interviewing for what is essentially his future boss?

The interesting word for me is "foreign". All the names that have been mentioned - Hughton, Sherwood, Clement, Lennon, Mowbray, Mackay, Clarke, Howe etc are British (unless London-born Hughton is being called foreign). That implies that a Zola, Di Matteo - or even Rangnick is possibly on the shortlist
