It is not going to be anyone that has their own ideas. Rule out anyone whom is or has been a manager. Tinnion is DOF who will dictate. It’s gonna be a coach whom is willing to work under the strict conditions. No signings etc. Will be expected to just follow instructions from above and try to implement them on the training field. Basically a yes man who unless incredible fortunate is being set up to fail. Good luck to them!

Think I've got it down to two. Maybe three.

After I called Hughton last time tho, and got it wrong, cus it was his agent playing the game - I'm not gonna put my testicles on the chopping board this time. 

Things are certainly getting interesting this evening.

You’re putting your testicles on the chopping board.

That makes no sense at all. You write something then quote yourself to carry on the conversation . It’s weird . You 
keep mentioning managers as if it’s the gospel , then say you got it from a youth teams parent . Who if what you’re saying is true wouldn’t have a clue who we’re interviewing . I might be wrong but it all seems a bit attention seeking .

Just a bit of fun, to try to lift the gloom

After all the might be's and won't be's, name who you think will be the new head coach.

Make it want and think if you want. Most of us know naff all anyway.

Don't put Nige, we've all done that!

Want Eustace

Think Lampard

 

Looking like frank the **** .

Based on past appointments, my guess would be someone who hasn’t managed at this high a level before, so happy to be a head coach under a Director of Football who is a bit of an unknown in wider footballing circles, relatively young and inexperienced I.e. cheap to employ, plus finally has some previous link to the club, if possible.

Based on those criteria, Luke Williams is the obvious choice. But we will see…

I am throwing in Kevin Muscat 

Just to be different.

Beale has done nothing, apart from lie to the QPR  fans (he will fit in well) Eustace had some good things happening with some good loans from the Prem, might be worth a go, Lampard, no idea, loved the player, cannot see what he has done for a club needing someone to play teenagers, a wage budget already spent, a need to sell a player each year for £10m plus and a squad already in place for promotion. Just cannot see Frank falling for that one. Anyone from the lower leagues will be walking into a club with no structure or strategy, and a senior management team who lie, undermine and have no idea what makes a Premier League club. It would be unfair on them. Mark Ashton, when given the chance to choose a manager, did a pretty good job based on the first part of this season. And I dislike the man. But a manager with that type of background would be interesting, someone who has extensive knowledge of what Prem teams and players look like. 

Anyway, all fun and games, we know how crap we are at recruiting, so this could end up being another in a long line of face-slappers. Imagine, just imagine, that we had limitless money, and we could afford Klopp, Pep, Ange (open your mind) and they come to an interview. The agent has already agreed to the £10m a year salary. And they sit down with Jon L and Slippery Tins. Indeed. 

I have not looked at the betting list, but I would suggest we will end up with a young "coach" who has minimal experience, and who can be manipulated and will accept input on team selection. We will not bring in anyone who knows what they are doing, as that causes the others at the club to feel inadequate and threatened. 

Only Jon L could fire a CEO with 25 years top line experience, recommended by Scudamore, CEO of the year, then a manager who had taken Leicester to the top and created a base for a title win, all in 3 months.  Nepotism is a very dangerous thing, placing your child in a role they neither understand nor are capable of performing, giving them a feeling of vulnerability as they do not know what they are doing, so they protect themselves with a comfort blanket of yes people, who help them feel adequate. It is sad, very sad to see. Worse though, it is properly screwing up the progress at our football club. Get over it Jon, resign, and go snorkelling.

If we're looking for a bit of turnaround, there's a League One manager that joined a club this season which had gained only one point from their first six games.  Under his stewardship they've gained 12 points from the next nine games.  That's a 700% increase in their points per game.

One positive I can see with Lampard is that he is probably of the right generation to inspire our young players. 

If I was a 16-17 year old player in the 70's and Bobby Charlton had rocked up at my club, I would have been going all out to listen to everything he said and to impress him. I would imagine that would be the case with a Lampard or a Gerrard for our kids.

Who could / would City attract. Reading the club's history; when Fred ford was sacked, Harry Dolman wanted to replace him with Frank O'Farrell the then Torquay Manager. Frank refused because Fred was a friend of his and didn't like the way City had got rid of him.

If NP is highly regarded by his compatriots, some of them may turn us down.
