Guest Blixa Posted October 4, 2014 Posted October 4, 2014 cos they havent got a clue Indeed. Because no one knows the criteria right now, might get a hint of that in the next week. Rising star, old head, relegation fire fighter, pacifier for the fans etc etc. I'm pretty sure it isn't going to be Phil Brown, a Flitcroft or Tony Pulis though. Bet there's a few agents putting their men up for it in the coming week too. Expect plenty of 'Sky sources' linking random names. Mowbray already on the case, his agent is obviously shit hot. Quote
Matt Lofthouse Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 More I think about it the more attractive Phil Brown sounds. We need someone to galvanise the whole club.Not too sure just yet about the browny bit, but by fook do we need someone to galvanise the whole club ???? Quote
Blondi Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Going off the current bookies favourites, I would like Mckay, but I can't see him coming, but stranger things have happened. I don't want Phil Brown, his managerial career has been pretty much a failure with the exception of Hull, but that failed in the end. Tony Mowbray would be an ideal candidate for us and he has the experience for what we need right now. His teams tend to play pretty decent football and his win percentage ratio is very good.

Ani Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 We need a manager who is strong enough to deal with players, that means experienced in my eyes. Just get us playing to a system and sticking with it. Not sure who we could attract given current position, there will be plenty chucking their hats in. Quote
Blondi Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Any odds on Mike Phelan? You can get 25/1 for him. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) You can get 25/1 for him. He's never been a manager has he? Experience should be top of any CV therefore Phelan a non starter, unless he brings Fergie with him. ???? Edited October 5, 2014 by Mounts Kipper Quote
Blondi Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 He's never been a manager has he? Experience should be top of any CV therefore Phelan a non starter, unless he brings Fergie with him. I agree, too much of a gamble imo. Brian Kidd at Blackburn springs to mind. Great assistant but crap manager. Quote
wayne cramp Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 on tony mowbrays twitter page , a fulham fan last wednesday wrote that he was there for the bolton game. (mowbray , not the fulham fan) . Quote
Guest Blixa Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Any odds on Mike Phelan? I see you have seen that Daily Star story. The one that says Jimmy Phillips is the caretaker and if he does well, he might get the job. So facts might be an issue. Agree with Mounts, think we need an experienced face, not someone new to the role. But he will be keen to make his mark. Wasn't he lined up for the Wigan job at one point? Quote

Guest Blixa Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 And the fact I was sat behind him yesterday so one never knows In that case, there's probably about 13k candidates if being there is a criteria for being in the running. ;-) Sounds too keen. Sack him off. Quote
EyesRight Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Scott fucking Green to be interviewed I've been told. All for former players but bollocks to that, we need experience. Reliable source as well Quote
HomerJay Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Not having that. But no matter who we get, most folk will be pissed off. Quote
freds dad Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Scott fucking Green to be interviewed I've been told. All for former players but bollocks to that, we need experience. Reliable source as well Is he still at Yeovil Town? He was running their centre of excellence Quote
onefinfrandsen Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Important we get the right man for the job, but we need to act fast, if another manager gets potted this week then our chances of getting someone like my choice of mackay would reduce very quickly. Quote
DomRepWanderer Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 I suspect all serious applicants will get an interview, but means fuck all. Quote
jagermoot Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Mixu been linked this morning too. I'd take mobray with phelan as a number 2. Too many Manchester United assistants haven't really done much in management. Quote
Guest Blixa Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Scott fucking Green to be interviewed I've been told. All for former players but bollocks to that, we need experience. Reliable source as well That's what you get when folk bang on about someone associated with the club. First Coyle, then this. Not that he will get it mind. Quote
tylswhite Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 I dont want anybody who was perviously associated with the club unless its a proven manager. We are not Newcastle FFS. Quote
Ratwhite Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 All the DF out folks faces if we get Scott Fucking Green - Megsonesque Quote
jules_darby Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 IfGreen is being spoken to, it could be for the Academy as JP steps up to the first team. Just a thought Quote
radcliffe white Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 I would think that's the case tbh,gartside has made some bad choices but no way Scott green Quote
