Who's manager of our illustrious side next season should be decided by a series of events designed to test the physical and mental attributes required to be a successful manager. Of course Iffy will be aloud to be involved to defend his position as boss.

Event 1:
Comunication and understanding.
Each contestant will have to write, produce and direct a short film on a non-footballing subject of their choice. It can be fictional or a non-fictional.

Event 2:
Tactical Awareness.
Would suggest chess, but maybe to make it fairer draughts (sp?).

Event 3:
Charisma and Wit.
The contestants will appear in a panel show along the same lines of radio 4's 'Just a Minute' - talk for a minute on a subject with no deviation, repetition or hesitation.

Event 4:
General Football knowledge.
A football based game similar to 'question of sport', with added swindon questions for bonus points.

Event 5:
Physical Ability.
All out fighting (think iffy might get an advantage here). Maybe give any older contestants weapons to level it out a bit.


Maybe it could be some sort of reality tv show. Winner could get a cut of the C4/C5/Sky tv money as a prize as well as the manager job.

The contestants undergo an apprentice style challenge. maybe as football agents.

This sounds like a good idea. I believe Mr Power welcomes input from the fans so maybe he will take up the idea.

Judging could be a problem. Also some of the events lack interest. think chess should be changed to coaching wheelchair basketball / blind football.

The BBC could package it as part of sports relief. I hope the club take up my crazy idea. I reckon it's a winner.

Defo.
Lot's of events should be required. if there are enough there could be some sort of elimination of the bottom 2.

Of course that requires enough contestants. I'd enter.

There shouldn't be any problem getting contestants, these managers love tv. Could always get some celebrity's to enter to see if they can manage as well as the real managers. Get Gazza to enter, publicity follows him wherever he goes. Maybe Scolari.

I think it's a winner.

Could have Bill Power as an Alan Sugar style character... "Sorry but you're too much of a loose canon, Gazza, you're fired"

Is that what he even says? I've only seen the apprentice twice.
