Next manager

[horlock07]

Is there a realistic managerial candidate (with experience) who can receive universal support from the start? I doubt it.

I suspect that there isn't even an unrealistic target that the fans would agree on - if Power appointed Guardiola I suspect there would be disquiet and fans clearing their merchandise rooms and returning said contents to the club.

This is the Sky Bet list for our Next Permanent Manager; who would your top choice be, and, if different, who do you think is the most realistic? Of course, AN Other is a distinct possibility.

I'll go for:

Gus Poyet
Martin Ling

Luke Williams 1/8
Martin Ling 10/1
Tim Sherwood 12/1
Ross Embleton 20/1
Paul Dickov 22/1
Danny Wilson 22/1

I'd go for Luke Williams with Kevin Nolan

[Exiled Bob]

If I was Lee Power I'd get a mate to put a few grand on and appoint myself.....

[Red and Proud]

So no sign of white smoke from SN1 then?

What are you saying? Gandalf is in the frame? Magic.

[Quagmire]

Just put £15 on Ling at 10/1. That bet alone took his odds down 6/1 so shows how little money needs to be placed.

Might shore up our defence

[THE FLASH]

Williams sounds about right.

Another manager by default and cheap.

[Reg Smeeton]

Might shore up our defence

Hope we get him in before Saturday, as our defence made Will Grigg look like a Balrog the last time we played against him.

Will Grigg is best striker in the league IMO

Name and shame

Sorry?

Just curious as to which bookie would be worried about a £150 liability.

That said, they're all as bad as each other anyway.
