I'm sure he'll nominate every player between 1992-1999 to be manager

Can we just accept now that a lot of people aren't going to be happy? If he's experienced, he'll have been sacked from somewhere. There will be a reputation, there will be statistic and someone will know a mate of a mate who was a fan of his previous team who will complain about his style of play or ability to buy strikers, or what he says in interviews.
In summary, it better not be Steve Staunton.
Good post....I think we can safely assume it wont be anybody, that will get the juices flowing. Peter Taylor....the more I think about, the more I dislike it.....big fan of Trevor Benjamin mind.

Timing is strange, less than a week ago the board were still backing Wilson with the signing of Grella which suggests it was Wilsons decision to resign rather than a board decision to get rid.
On the other hand, if they've already got a replacement lined up they must have been already considering their options...
Johnson would be my choice, but whoever it is will likely not have a better track record than Wilson and will be grappling with the same issues.
Anyone who thinks getting rid of Wilson will cure all our problems is likely to be in for a shock I fear.

Does this mean you'll be up all night like a kid waiting for Christmas?

I wonder if Fitton and co had been planning to appoint an extra hand in some sort of director of football role, and Wilson, knowing that he's off in the summer anyway, decided that it wasn't worth the hassle.

I find that hard to believe. We are announcing a successor in 24 hours. We must have approached them before Wilson resigned. edit The DoF theory by FB is one reason Wilson may have walked I guess.
