Alan Nixon says… 59 year old Italian, Guiseppe Iachini is interested in the Wednesday job.

He’s managed Sampdoria, Udinese, Fiorentina and Palma amongst others….

Remember Leo Fortune West? That journeyman striker?

He reckons this bloke is coming in with Beni Carbone as his assistant…

I've just had to Google him.

Iachini has got four different teams promoted from Serie B to Serie A.  That’s the good news.  The bad is the last time was 2014.  Given that DC appointed Jos and Pullis, it sounds plausible.  A guy who would’ve been an exciting appointment a decade ago, whose star has slightly waned, who convinces Chansiri he’s still got he’s still got it.  If we offer him a shit basic and massive bonuses for playoffs or automatic then who knows.

I’m not sure about Smith, he did well at Villa and before that at Brentford, but he did have Jack Grealish and Brentford’s recruitment department to help with both, neither or which we have. Since then, things haven’t looked too good.

The football wasn’t shite at Brentford or Villa.

Norwich had just had a reality check and were/still are struggling to recover.

Smith would be a solid appointment in this division with a good back room team. 
We will probably end up with Ince!!!

I don’t we will know until DC gives the thumbs up for something to go on social media and the club website.

Smith has got to be worth a crack. He might also have the PL contacts to bring players in that we need.

As for JT, let’s just say I’d prefer he didn’t come here
