Next permanent manager

[Miles Away]

The best I can say is he isn't Parker, Gerrard or Lampard.

It's a massive punt though, make no mistake. Hope it works.

Parker, Gerrard or Lampard would be awful in my ignorant opinion.

There’s a lad who was half decent for us back in the day who doesn’t get in their best 11. Maybe we could loan him for a season.

He's waiting in a lay-by for us now.

Parker is a much better manager than the other two chancers.. which I accept is faint praise.

That’s the real indicator of how far we have fallen - from an airport lounge to a lay-by

To be fair, any manager will be a massive punt. And I don’t just mean in a philosophical sense. With the current state of the club and the team, even Potter would be a punt.

You can but be warned... this is TB and you will be corrected.

I count ten assumptions in your post. Most of which you can have no evidence for.

Just because you think otherwise, doesn't make it fact.

So you're shit at counting as well then.

I thought we was getting a safe pair of hands when we signed Peter Taylor .
Thought Ranieri was a bit of a curve ball but he might keep us up

The Guardian says "poised". Does that make it so?

We should get Brian Kidd. Worked well alongside Siralec so he must be good.

I have a bad feeling about this one, trying to be a knockoff Man City is part of why we are in this mess... but I'm willing to be open minded. He's definitely going to need some patience.

As are we.

Yep, my thinking too. He wouldn't have the resources available to him (players nor dosh) that he maybe unknowingly takes for granted at the moment. He's going to have to have a plan b, c, d and e up his sleeve. No way are we going to be a knock-off Man City, he'd have to adapt and know how to use what we've got (whoever they may be)

 

[alex]

Has he managed in the Championship?

Must have, there’s no way we’d take that big a risk

Reading his resume, he seems to like playing total football as with the Dutch in the 70s. Many years ago, I held a management meeting in which I was trying to get the sales, accounts and service teams to work together. I drew the analogy with the total football approach of the Dutch football team, where everybody understands the role of everybody else in achieving our objectives. I am not sure that it worked, but I enjoyed the meeting.

The idea of putting the goalie as centre forward is probably one which should stay on the training ground, but I have to say that I like the cut of the man's gib.

That's what Blackburn thought.

But seriously, I don't get the negativity. He's an unknown quantity, which Gerrard, Lampard. Smith et all most certainly aren't.

Aye. I'd rather just do without a manager than put any of those 3 failures in charge. Why it has to be those 3 or someone who knows Pep is beyond me. Maybe we could take a punt on someone who isn't a massive failure or someone we expect to be a success through osmosis or someshit....why not Brian Kidd as he was a failure and an assistant to someone good?
