The new, new manager thread. Thread closed.

So overated 

I think he’d be able to do a job for us.
I’d take him here.

If I say I’ve heard a rumour his odds might shorten!

[DV]

How about Kevin Nolan?

No press conferences scheduled with local media today yet?

How about Kevin Nolan?

Mixed bag at Notts County. Got them into the play-offs which I think they lost out to Coventry. Following season didn't go so well and he got his P45. Been first team coach at West Ham so would fit the bill for what we are looking for I reckon.

I’m basically Wikipediaing clubs back room staff just because I think that is where we are likely to be looking.

Nolan had a very solid career in the game (amazed he didn’t get at least a token England cap tbh) and has decent win percentages at both Orient and Notts County. Been back at West Ham and still relatively young at 39.

Not the worst shout by any stretch.

Also surprised Luke Garrads named hasn’t had more traction.

We could give Freddie Ljungberg his first managerial job. Although the fact he left as a coaching role at Arsenal in 2020 to look into managerial positions which haven't gone anywhere must be a concern.

At the moment i'm just chucking names around a la DV.

One word.

Compensation.

[DV]

One word.

Compensation.

Whilst we aren’t flush with money we aren’t skint.
We’ll pay compo if the club genuinely believe it’s the right person.
I don’t know how far we got down the line with Crofts but if the rumours are true that he was offered it - that would have involved compensation, no?

Its only Borehamwood though and he's been there a while.

You'd think whatever the compo for the two Scotts would more than cover it.

Yeah, I can't imagine Boreham Wood are commanding anymore compensation than a Prem or Championship under 23rs coach.

This is only because of hours on Football Manager but coaches at that level, on the game at least, have management get out clauses written into their contracts, must be an element of truth to that.

I understand this to be true. Compensation waved to become a manager at a club but if going for a similar post then compensation could be sought.
