From what i have heard the list off people into the second stage interview are below there is also 2 people that have not been named.

Oliver Glasner
Kevin Muscat
Philippe Clement
Pascal Jansen

I have also been told that they are also interviewing for a DOF once the manager is selected depending on who the manager would like in that role.

A Manager doesn't pick the DoF. That's like picking your boss.

Inroad no way a manager selects a dof.

The board need to make all the appointments. From top to bottom their should be interviews, due diligence, etc. Move away from this ‘jobs for the boys’ attitude that has been at our club for far too long.

The club don’t need a manager, they need a head coach. There should be a consistent vision for the club that carries on even in the event of a head coach being replaced. The DoF should be singing players Based on information provided by the scouts. There should be a backroom staff that is consistent and doesn’t need gutted constantly. I understand every manager wants their own coaches but that should be limited in numbers. In short, the club needs to be run properly.

This constant ripping everything up and starting again isn’t working. In fact, it does more harm than good. We need to put something in place and stick with it. However, I’m not sure our fans are ever going to accept that which is a big problem.

Jobs for the boys? You mean like what MB was? A novice manager getting the rangers job was ridiculous.

In a strange way I can see the next manager having a say in who the DOF is. The manager is the most important piece out the 2 so makes no sense in a manager getting lumped with a guy he can't work with.

I just hope either way they get this right, I think Beale was a decent coach as Gerrard said but he certainly is not a manager and even less so a DOF but he wanted all jobs, the board need to have a look at themselves as well, I know and understand their plan to bring in players who can be developed and sold on for profit But to do that we need a strong team to help these players develop and not eight or nine at a time our senior players have been terrible and the summer signing have been terrible bar one or two hence the position we are in, we need a good manager in a good DOF we need to build a winning team that will take investment not balancing the books proper investment as Celtic will spend again, I read about expanding the stadium and about waiting lists that's all it is a list if the product on the park is not winning not exciting that list will dwindle and so will the crowds, we are in a very difficult position I think this season may already be gone I hope not but we need to get a product on the park that the fans enjoy and a team the fans can get behind no more of the rubbish we have been served up so it’s over to you the board now fingers crossed.

The manager doesn’t choose the DOF.
The DOF should be advising the board with regards the candidates to be first team coach or manager with the board having the final say on the appointment.
As we don’t have a DOF at the moment it will be the board’s responsibility to source and choose both.

Good post Verdant - you may be green but that is a very sensible argument ?.

1872 if it sensible post then it’s his 1st in about a month.

Lets remember that appointing a dof doesn't promise continuity. Especially if we hold up "get him out" posters of him like we did with the last one. Not criticism of fans, as the transfer business was awful during his tenure, just an observation.

Jansen is far too complicated for many on here to able to spell his name . Maybe we could find a Mr Smiff or get Martindale who can't pronounce "TH " wiff anyfing .

Martindale or McInnes? don't rule out anything with this board of imposters and chancers .
