I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Colin Calderwood who's assistant at Villa - he'd be a great Town manager, but alas, very unlikely !

Why would he go from a job that probably pays 200k a year to one where he would probably be paid 20 quid

Calderwood has done better as an assistant than as a manager.

Don't get this 'former player stuff'

- Viveash is interesting because of success in the Chelseas youth set up
- Ramsay was a legend but not been a great manager
- Hockaday scored against Shilton from a cross but aint been that lucky as a manager
- Others that have managed in the lower leagues would probably not want to come

Calderwood had 2 promotions as manager,as assistant he has been around and must know many players.
Saying that why would he want to work for Power?   Dream on.

Just seen Bodin parking in town centre. Clearly that will actually be because he lives locally and has popped into town to do some shopping/has an appointment/whatever but it seems churlish not to start a new manager rumour off the back of it.

Alan Stubbs wasn't given much chance at Rotherham and sacked after a bad run of 15 or so games, it proved as the season went on he was managing one of the worse Championships sides ever, he did a great job before at Hibernian.
Been out of work for quite a while now.
I doubt his salary when at Rotherham was mega bucks either.

I would prefer a young manager who has played at a higher level than some of the ex-Swindon guys being mentioned at the moment.

Definately no thanks to Alan Stubbs, even Malpas and Calderwood had an ok record in Scotland and 1 win in 15 games at Rotherham doesn't inspire confidence in him being able to turn around a poor side.

I would prefer JFH but I think the odds of him actually coming would be minscule.

He was interviewed for the job before PdC came and the board chose the Italian when JFH was coaching at Forest having freshly completed his coaching badges with them and looking for his first managers position.

Steve Evans rising up the bookies listings.....

Not sure Power would pay compensation
Evans is the type of manager you love to hate
Would Power seriously relinquish control of transfers
Greggs in the town would do a roaring trade
He does have experience and has had success

Power's appointments previously seem to have been hugely influenced by Sherwood, with previous incumbents being summoned to the Spurs training ground for interviews and to explain results, so I wonder who Sherwood will choose this time ?
