sherlyegg Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Just had a look on oddschecker...nothing to catch the eye... But I noticed last week Bruce opened at 20/1 Newcastle job and quckly went to 1/25...anyhow now it is confirmed, over half bets placed on prem relegation today are on Newcastle ...and odds cut to 11/4 from 5/1. Don't think many have confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Hughton or GVB, of those mentioned, and I have a notion that Paul Hurst could turn out to be a decent coach. Granted, his only job at this level, with Ipswich, didn’t turn out well, so only really a hunch. I can remember reading an article about him, saying how highly he was rated, and might one day be part of the England set up. He apparently holds the top coaching licence, a coach can earn in Europe. He did have outstanding success prior to the Ipswich job, albeit at a lower level. As I said, it’s just a hunch, on the limited evidence of managing at this level, you wouldn’t really offer him a job Edited July 17, 2019 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBloodedOwl Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) I am going to throw a very random name out there for manager. Domènec Torrent Font the current New York City FC manager he is 56 years old and been a manager for 24 years. They play with the same style of play as Man City. Think he has the experience we need and plays hard pressing attacking football. Edited July 17, 2019 by BlueBloodedOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basegreenowl Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Bullen said that the players have been kept to the fundamentals put in place. So who from that long list can carry on these same fundamentals which Bruce had put in place? Can not see a total move away from this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Just made a promise to myself not to look at the bookies odds again. Seems to be a carpet bomb approach ATM and there are way too many undesirables making the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) Timing, and our financial situation, determine we don’t need one of those managers who feels it’s essential to work with his own players There is no point whatsoever to bring in somebody like that, certainly not now anyway. A coach who can work with, and improve the players we have, is a much better bet. Edited July 18, 2019 by gurujuan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's happy to coach, but being the boss is completely different. A big reason why he shouldn’t and hopefully won’t get the job. Lose a few games in a row? bit of booing from the stands and the poor bloke would probably have a break down. Really don’t want to see him suffer like that.

Sooner or later a name will turn up with short odds and that could (I stress could) be an indication. DC does not do dissemination of information, nobody plays his cards closer to his chest. So we shall just have to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperwinngardensowl Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Only a complete idiot who has no idea about football, or access to the internet, would have Zola as our next manager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might just think we won't appoint a perm manager for a while because of the legal stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owl84 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 People are very quick to jump on the anti Bullen bandwagon because of this 'Burton' game. They seem to forget what he did last season in the 4 games he was in Temp charge. I'm not saying he's the right man for the job but would take him over a lot of the other names linked.

vulva Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I’d give it Bullen and gamble on a dead cat bounce for a bit. By the time that novelty wears off, some better managers will become available. The list of possible managers is like a menu in a poor restaurant where you end up having Pizza because you take the view they can’t not rustle up a decent Pizza.
