Markowski77 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The thing is - we are an attractive proposition for a number of managers so we shouldn’t settle for second best - We would be able to attract the lower league/smaller club managers (Cowleys, Stendal, Cook) - The current number 2’s wanting to move into management (Arteta, Terry etc) - The managers with a good a rep wanting to have a crack at the English game (Viera, GVB etc) we have apparently sorted our financial woes & with a MASSIVE fan base, I think we will get this appointment right - hopefully WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swissmess Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Manuel Baum is being mentioned in Germany. But as an example of someone attracting some interest in UK because of turning club around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Whoever it ends up being probably won't please or excite everyone, regardless of who it is. But if we give them the benefit of doubt and a chance, we might be pleasantly surprised. The ground work and foundations are there for a new man to do well, given a chance.

TodwickOwl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 After Hughton, there is no other English manager I’d like in. Think we we will need to look to an upcoming foreign coach I.e Stendel or the ex Schalke coach. Would be nice to get in a coach who plays football out from the back - similar to Bielsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buuuut, I still think the majority of those names would be very interested in sitting down and talking to us... we're potentially a very interesting project and the sort of challenge that a few of those listed would love to face I reckon.

TodwickOwl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) What about Quique Setién, free agent ex Betis, finished 10th last year in La Liga. Look at the football.... He was touted for big things including Barca job after a quick look online - was fired at the end of last season I think after beating Real?

Guest Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Pretty sure the bookies just stick Pearson on the list every time with us to fleece a few quid out of those that are adamant he is the right man and will take it one day. Doubt very much that today, this week, month or year will be that day given what he has said about the job in the past and his links to the George Hirst saga.
