We have history when it comes to giving names their first shot at management.
How about making a bit of history and giving someone like Emma Hayes a shot at being the first woman manager in the men's game?

Because if ever there was a club (and a particular season at that club) to irreparably damage the chances of every other aspiring female manager in men’s football.....

Personally I just don't see it actually working, a female manager in a ego heavy male dominated environment just doesn't seem like a recipe for success. To coin a phrase from the fat manager that we detest it would just turn us into a bit of a 'circus'. |

Why would she leave Chelsea after winning the treble for Swindon fucking Town  |

I think in terms of the circus train, that departed regarding Swindon Town about 8 years ago! I seem to recall Gabriella Benson did reasonable job. |

not sure it's the right time for us to be experimenting.
She may well be brilliant. But I think the 'old boys' network is alive and kicking and we don't have the luxury of resources to work out if she can beach that

I am 100% for equality and believe women should have just as many opportunities in football (and elsewhere) as men do.
But let another club iron out the speed-bumps first.

Women’s and men’s football are almost different games. There are plenty of women’s clubs for women to manage.
I can’t think a woman would even want to manage a men’s team.
Christ, we can hardly get a male black man employed by clubs.

Clubs are missing out when it comes to the, as yet, relatively untapped pool of qualified BAME coaches, many of whom would tick the "young and hungry" boxes.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Nixon's usually (not always) right. Even the S*n has a decent sports section, as much as it pains me to say it.
It makes one wonder if Clem, or somebody else, is already talking to people expecting to take over in the not too distant future.
