Cypriot Owl Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 IMO we need a manager who knows this league and that hasn't been the case with the last two. McCarthy has been around long enough to know which players are needed and who doesn't fit in and has experience of the transfer market. I would welcome the opportunity to see him in charge for a couple of seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, but there's a whole host of people that are, particularly in light of what he's done at Swansea and the fact he took us to two playoffs. Just have a browse of Twitter if you don't believe me.

HootHoot Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 We already have a manager... Gosh we do run into some decisions sometimes. Jos I'm presuming will require some compensation if we sack him. I doubt we have the funds for that without further messing up our FFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warnock has had more money to spend this season and has been able to get hold of better players for a promotion push. Plus he inherited Zohore who is now worth over £10m apparantly (not by me). It would be interesting to see what Mick would have done with that Cardiff team and budget this season, and what he would do with us. Right now I would feel more confident with Mick in charge of our transfers in the summer than Jos, however that is only based on a gut feeling and I hope it’s proved wrong in the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To suggest that McCarthy’s style of play won’t work in the Premier League (even though he stabilised Wolves at that level for a few seasons), is a bit of a moot point IMO. We haven’t been in the Premier League for nearly 2 decades. The club just needs a manager that can get us promoted (that could be Jos but McCarthy’s Championship record speaks for itself). Worry about the Premier League once we ever get promoted. 3 hours ago, Andrew6666 said: Why are we 'bigging up' Mick McCarthy FFS - have we really sunk that low? Jokanovic for me. The only club’s likely to be tempting the likes of Jokanovic away from Fulham are in the division above. Fulham will be promoted in a few months IMO. Coming here would be a step backwards for such a promising young manager. 2 hours ago, HubristicClapper said: Not a chance would I want this absolute turd of a man anywhere near Wednesday. Why is this even a discussion whilst it's clear that Jos is in a firefight this season and should be given the close season and beyond. Because McCarthy is a proven Championship manager with a track record of getting teams in our division promoted. And he’ll be a free agent very soon.

Right now I would feel more confident with Mick in charge of our transfers in the summer than Jos, however that is only based on a gut feeling and I hope it’s proved wrong in the summer I’m not really contradicting what you’re saying, both managers are proven at this level, and as I said, I actually like them Perhaps I feel the same as I do about Jordan Rhodes. It’s right what most say, about his record at this level, and he seems a nice bloke, but I didn’t feel he was right for Sheffield Wednesday at this time He probably isn’t the busted flush, myself and others, have made out Three years ago, I’d have snapped your hand off, had you said, we’d be managed by Mick McCarthy, and could call on the services of Jordan Rhodes Now, I’m not so sure. We’ve moved on from that, or at least we should have done, until the project stalled It’s easy to look at some of our recent recruitment, and think that somebody like McCarthy could get the best out of Fletcher, Rhodes, and even Winnall He may well do, but for me, those were the signings where things started to go wrong So rather than bringing in a manager who can perhaps get them playing again, I’d rather build on year one’s team Edited March 29, 2018 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmigo Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Would be a good fit here. took wolves and Sunderland up, quite similar clubs to us in terms of fan base, expectations. Players will like playing under him and terry. I think wba could go for him next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However he would have had us promoted by now if he'd have been backed by DC as Carlos was. Also this supposedly hatred stuff is all a bit unproven to be fair and in my opinion totally irrelevant. Colin getting us promoted is pure speculation to be fair. Why would a blunt want to get us promoted? Or a single for that matter :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Going to be spoiled for choice. McCarthy, Pearson, AVB, Bilic, and Holloway all in the mix. Still think we shouldn’t give up on Ranieri though. After a very average season in the French top flight, Wednesday’s fecking off of FFP will be a huge attraction to him. Oh yeah, and Megson.
