Waveney Canary 0 Posted April 18, 2014 There is one obvious name missing from the list and I don''t need to spell out who that is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubai Mark 0 Posted April 18, 2014 LDC, I got some sever stick on here some months ago when I suggested Hoddle. But, he would be my number one choice and I really think would be ideal for our club. He is an excellent coach and very well connected, plus would give us a bit of profile and would probably bring a quality coaching team with him. Dont think it will happen though, but not one of the others appeal to me, although should we go down, then we will of course end up with at best a Malkay I guess......oh and as for Worthington, why would he even be remotely interested after the way he was treated by a significant majority of our fans leading up to when he was removed..no chance.

Gingerpele 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Are you really that bitter Wiz?His comments were stupid. Misguided. But really not worth him getting sacked for and not worth him not getting a job here if he were the right man for the job.If you''ve really taken what he said so personally that too me suggests you have some serious deeper lying issues.

Move Klose 303 Posted April 18, 2014 Paul ince for me, na just kidding, would like to a young upcoming coach like neil adams, or a paul clement gary neville type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
splutcho 196 Posted April 18, 2014 I would agree with Wiz for once, he''s an awful human being. Wouldn''t want him at the club. That said, I wouldn''t want any of that list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubai Mark 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Wiz totally respect your view on this, but this goes back to 1999 and you refer to a comment that was a small part of an interview that the press and others blew out of all proportion, sure he has some views spritually that many of us would disagree with and perhaps find strange, but thats life.I also understand that he has always done a lot of good work for those not as fortunate as others, but that is never given a headline is it.The problem is, that you could just about guarantee that every candidate will have some sort of skeleton in the cupboard.......hey, if you were on the short list you may have a dark secret too, or even, heaven forbid, said something that others may be offended by (oh hang on a minute), but that wouldnt exclude you from applying for a job or even being offered a job.Yep...HODDLE IN !!!!!!

Fuzzar 1,861 Posted April 18, 2014 If Adams manages to keep us in this division with 4 or more points, I''d be surprised if he wasn''t given the gig on a full time basis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Theres only one Martin Peters! 0 Posted April 18, 2014 Top 3 favourites would do a decent job with the right backing, as we cannot keep paying the lowest wages in the Prem and expect to stay in the league.My preferred choice would be Uwe Rosler, but doubt if we could get him away from Wigan.I think Hoddle is past his sell by date, I seem to remember Wolves were pretty woeful with him as Manager, could not win games, did not score many goals and that was in the Championship.

That was an evil and wicked thing to say. God forbid you ever step into my world mate but if you did you''d see the issue slightly differently I''d wager.

mrs miggins 0 Posted April 18, 2014 I''m not sure of Bielsa tbh. He''s got a good record at international level, but poor at club level, but he plays good football, yet i''d be worried about his training methods with our group Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for being wrong, we''ll never know - in my opinion Hughton was just as likely to keep us up in the present circumstances as Adams, when you think back to the Man City and Spurs matches. But now we have Adams and renewed positivity which is great. Long may that continue. As for me evaluating a possible manager - I can do that at least as well - or at least as badly - as 99% of people on here. Choosing/hiring/evaluating a manager is a lottery, as we well know - and choosing someone that will be much better than Hughton is not going to be as easy as some seem to think.

Houston Canary 0 Posted April 18, 2014 I agree with C1. All the wrongers (formerly inners) said the change, if it was going to be made, would happen in the off-season. Oops!They also said the board knows what it''s doing, and yet they seem to have set Adams up for failure when a much earlier change would hsve given him, or anyone, time to rid the team of the bad habits and loser mentality, and to implement and practice a better strategy. They also insisted CH was the best man for the job although now their comments suggest he wasn''t getting the job done. The most surprising thing about ldc''s post is that his favorite to take over ISN''T Chris Hughton. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston Canary 0 Posted April 18, 2014 My mistake! As I was typing my comment, LDC was busy claiming Hughton still was the man despite our accelerating decline. He wants to think back to the ManC and Spurs games. In those 4 games we earned 4 points and a -8 goal difference. And that''s his highlight!?!?!?How about the Fulham and Cardiff games, too? 1 point out of a possible 12 plus a humiliating cup exit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy was sacked in 2006 after a lot of fan discontent - that went well, didn''t it........If you are so clever - and as you like to crow so much about what you see as some kind of non-existent victory - perhaps you could enlighten us on your choice of manager??
