Otto_Man Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) Seems as we're getting one, we might as well have a thread on it. Let's do it a bit different, who you'd like, who you definitely don't want and your left field pick. Want = Warburton Don't want = Smith, Hughton or Mrs Doubtfire Left field = John Terry Edited October 5, 2023 by Otto_Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owling_Wolf Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 I agree, John Terry should be left in a field. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reesh Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Want = Bruno Lage Would accept = Beale, Warburton, Jones, Carlos Not a fucking chance = Colin, Bullen, Wildbeast Left Field = Lampard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrolMong Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) Would take: Jones, Hughton, Beale Dont want: Warnock, Warburton (would have him as a number two), Hughes, Carlos, Bruce, Wilder, Smith, Lampard, Terry Left field: Parker, Barton Edited October 5, 2023 by KrolMong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrolMong Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 I would also add, if we are going to go left field from abroad… I’d want to see… 1. Under the age of 45. 2. Repeated success no matter what club they are from, in that countries second tier and up. 3. Been in jobs for more than 2 full years. 4. Someone with a burgeoning reputation in the game, so a coach on the up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we been linked with Rohl by a credible source, or just names thrown about by who people want? We apparently went for him last time, why didn't he get offered it, if he did and turned it down, why would he come this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May have needed to pay them/him too much at the time to get him in. He's unemployed now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto_Man Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 I'd have Neil Harris (who's just been sacked by Gillingham) btw, got them out of a similar mess last season.

Ozzie Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Somebody that will grasp it. No BS waffle in interviews, straight forward. No Colin or that runty fucker that walked from pigs when it went sour either. I'd take Bruce back and Carlos S1. Time has probably made em think things through and better the 2nd time around.

Went down from L1 on goal difference and then Scally starved the funding so they only had about 13 first team players, bench was either incomplete or packed with kids most weeks before the yanks stepped in. Got them off to a decent enough start, but seems the owners were expecting more?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M42Owl Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Want: someone that’ll get us organised, playing on the front foot with a bit of pride and confidence. Out of the likely candidates that probably whittles it down to no-one. Don't want: Warnock, Wilder, Evans, any previous Wednesday manager, any ex-United manager, Lampard/Gerrard/Terry etc whose name will precede the club’s, anyone over 50 whose managerial career is mainly tier 3 and below, Big Sam, Little Sam, Big Mick, any manager whose last/current job was in Saudi / China / Thailand, anyone generally considered a bit eccentric, e.g. Di Canio, Carbone. Would accept (meh): Pretty much anyone not in the list above, with a few years experience and more than one success on their CV. Left field: A woman. Or a bloke doing well managing a women’s team.
