RevOwl Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Carlos? Megson? Gary Rowett is being tipped as well as the brothers at Lincoln City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) The choice for us, do we go for an experienced manager similar to Bruce, who has taken sides up from this division. Do we take a punt on a master tactician from overseas, like Norwich did, and possibly like the piggies did, with the homegrown Wilder A third option, is there an untried high profile player, who might have great contacts, similar to Lampard and Gerrard Edited July 11, 2019 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing record in Portuguese third tier, and very experienced with 17 clubs in 3 years. Paxos first choice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Circumstances have to dictate the type of manager we will go for. Who will be available, and of course the timing, three weeks before the season starts Will they work with no money, meaning they will have to utilise the players we have here. A return for Carlos?

Mid Wicket Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 If Bruce goes to Newcastle I think he will be out of work before Christmas, go for Hughton.. another proven Manager at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May need to bring with them almost an entire backroom team and hit the ground running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would agree, because of the timing issue, but it has to be an experienced guy who isn’t the type of manager who needs to bring in all his own players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kendoddsdadsdogsdead Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It is a right royal clusterf**k !! McClaren, Hughton, Hughes, Rowett, Pardew, Moyes, Holloway, have all been mentioned, amongst others by posters. Of the above, Moyes would probably be my choice. Did wonders at Preston and Everton, and although it went pear shaped at Man U, he is experienced. Holloway is a bit like Marmite, to many, but I do like him and his enthusiasm, so i would not be averse to him coming in. Posters have mentioned ex players amongst them Di Canio and Carbonne. Not sure about those two, but whoever is appointed, time is against them, should Bruce leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Nilsson Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hughton. No question. Proven track record at this level and a big name to settle down the players and club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 One concern is that a new manager will need to come in, asses the squad, see what needs improving and then try to bring some of his own players in. This is all going to take time. Something we don’t have with pre season under way and the season only a matter of weeks away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millhouses Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hughton for me, experience at this level, taken a club up and seems an intelligent balanced bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't blame DC if he thought f*ck that, and did appoint a random foreigner, given that when he does try and get an experienced manager, pays him very well, hires who he wants, and backs him, he gets screwed over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) I'd rather something more forward thinking than Hughton. He's older than Bruce, less good and his football is duller to watch. I'd go for someone on the rise in the lower leagues. Such as the Cowley brothers for example and start doing things properly and building for the future. Hopefully not someone unknown from abroad but someone on the rise over here. Edited July 11, 2019 by The Night-Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hughton is a good Championship manager but has struggled when it comes to the Premier League. Brighton played some good football in the Championship and he knows what is required in the team to get out of the Championship. Two promotions out of the Championship and another play off finish shows he has a good Championship pedigree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Effectively after its official, after all the restructuring and effort to stay within P&S rules. If we get the next appointment wrong, we could potentially write the season off. That to me leaves us with two options both of which could work. Appoint someone with some Championship experience or build for the future by appointing a lower league manager on the rise. I'd avoid anyone abroad with no EFL experience.
