Odds For The New Manager

[Animis]

When you look at Hughton's record at Brighton in 4 and a half years, it was very good.

 

I assume he'd jump at the chance of coming to Wednesday - good fit for both sides.

He’d want to come up north though?

It was not just Brighton as Chris Hughton got Newcastle promoted to the Premier League and Ashley promptly fired him.

I'd like Cook too. Plays some fabulous attacking football.

 

I agree, remember them playing us off the park a while back, if I'm not mistaken. Seems an appealing manager on the rise. Been making a name for himself; with Cup upsets, their style of play, some smart signings and a few League titles/promotions in the lower leagues. He'd be a smart forward thinking interesting appointment.

He managed Newcastle previously.

van Bronckhorst is now my number one choice, would be a reyt appointment looking at his record

[S1Owl]

It didn't seem to affect the players at Lincoln although must've been a shock and many signed & maybe stayed because of 'him'. I just hope we can avoid McLaren.

Cook seems to improve teams wherever he goes, good shout

[NeonLeon]

Don’t think an up and coming name like Cowley, Arteta etc would be good for both parties. The infrastructure isn’t in place to support a manager that’s going to be learning on the job and making mistakes. The club is also crying out for guidance.

 

We need someone with similar experience to Bruce to keep the rebuilding process going and to make sure we’re adding to the building blocks that have been put in place. Also I think Bruce’s reputation definitely had a positive impact of the players, so if we can find someone like Hughton with a proven track record at this level we’d be onto a winner.

Dennis Bergkamp been told from my mate schtieve.

Any where's up North from Brighton.

Can't agree with those saying the list of available managers/possibly willing to work here is uninspiring. Some absolute dogger in there, yes, but some of the names of genuine possibles... Stendel, Cowleys, Cook, Hughton, van Bronckhorst (I'm sure a few others that I'm not smart enough to remember)... truthfully I think there are some cracking possible appointees.

Zola now 3/1. Be disastrous for us. 

[The Night-Owl]

Looks like there's a few out of the box retired players popping up as outsiders at present via BetVictor and paddy power odds. Wondering, if DC might be contemplating following the latest trends of managerial appointments by ignoring the usual old school types that always get linked with new jobs? And going for a recently retired high profile name or looking at lower league graduates and managers on the rise?

But he’d be lonely on his own.

Disastrous for anyone, great player, but terrible manager

So you’re thinking it will be Zola and.....

[s6 owl]

Zola would take us back to square 1. 

[JOHNHARKES]

UNBELIEVABLE ahhhhhhhhh!! Step forward G Nev.

[alanharper]

Stevie G and Arteta entered the Sky Bet list at 20/1, along with Allardyce.

 

I know it'd never happen, but imagine the look on Ashley's face if we got one of the managers who'd turned him down
