Could very well be undergoing a media trial period. It is essential in Ashley's business model that the first team manager knows how to convey to the public that we appear to be trying, but always falling just short of any of our goals. If Carver is seen to be able to handle the media and PR side of things, he'll be given it IMO.
Yup, the old we tried and Interviewed lots of candidates but John being here, getting a long really well with the squad and being an experienced head coach was perfect for the role job type or shit.
peddling the "he understands what this club means to the fans" bullshit guaranteed.
