graz 22 Posted October 25, 2022 Smith will be going soon. Maybe not tomorrow but he doesn't work here. So what are our serious options? Fan favourites Robins/Martin empathy with the club Chris Wilder knows how to manage a team at this level Dyche? Not my cup of tea but might come here Ryan Lowe? Having a good season but a risk imo.

By Hook or Ian crook 917 Posted October 25, 2022 I personally want Scott Parker. He’s the stand out candidate from managers who are unemployed. He has two championship promotions on his cv from two different clubs. Best way to get out of the league in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coneys Knee 941 Posted October 25, 2022 Pleeeeeeeease, there must be so many blossoming coaches worldwide that we don’t need to go for robins or Martin just because they played for us? Would they really be the best candidates for the job? Really? If so, then I retract that first paragraph. Would people even consider them if they didn’t have Norwich connections?

Martin is certainly more blossoming than Robins is but the connection does certainly strengthen their support. The human element shouldn't be ignored however. Since the first day Smith walked in fans have bemoaned his lack of connection, with Martin that wouldn't be the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Robins has earnt his stripes tbf, and due a chance at a bigger club. How much longer were perceived that way, is another question.

Possibly, but Bodo are trailing in the league this year and their European campaign hasn’t been a great success. It’s possible now is a better time for him to move than previously.

Actually, good point. I'd take Robins over Martin though for sure, he has a tonne of experience now and has never had a chance at a club with good players. But certainly, I probably wouldn't be mentioning Robins if he hadn't played for us. Don't want Martin anywhere near the job. I feel we should look abroad again.
