Guest Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 14 minutes ago, prowl said: The main trouble with appointing Bullen is I don't think he has the breadth of contacts in the game some of the others might bring. We need someone who can pry cracking loan players out of the big clubs, who can spot underused bargains we can buy cheap or lower league diamonds we can develop. That takes contacts and I doubt Bullen has them at the right level. This , he has no contacts at any level pal nevermind the right one Even said today that keeping McEachran wouldn’t be down to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got lucky that he inherited an Albion side that was far too good for this division previously. Failed to take Villa up with resources that Wednesday would currently love. Cheers mate, I was just looking through the list of out of work managers and compared to some he had decent stats yet had been out of work since Villa.

The Night-Owl Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) I personally wanted someone high profile like GVB but if that shortlist in the Mirror is true, then I'd have Bullen short term until we can get Daniel Stendel, as none of the out of work bosses appeal to me. Then keep Bullen to help Stendel. That would be the smartest move long term. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/sheffield-wednesday-managerial-shortlist-revealed/ Edited July 18, 2019 by The Night-Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The others on the list, apart from Bully, have all been sacked or walked out of jobs. They're all typical names. Stendel, is the only one on that list, that's different, forward thinking and plays attractive attacking football. Personally if that's our list, then it's a poor list and I'd go for Stendel alongside Bullen. Was hoping we'd be more ambitious and forward thinking by going for a high profile appointment like GVB but for me the next best thing is someone on the rise and on that list Stendel's the only one on the rise.

Did an excellent job at Birmingham, took Derby to the playoffs, underachieved at Stoke (but off the back of relegation I’m guessing there was a lot more wrong there than Gary Rowett). We could do a lot worse than him. Not my first choice but just put a tenner on him. Can see it happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beighton Owl 87 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Can see bullen getting this on an interim basis with chansiri assessing where we are at Christmas before making a permanent appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOT jack whitham Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Could well be Bullen and Thompson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ferkorf Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I hope Bullen doesn't get it. No way should he be anywhere near that job. Literally just last season he was moaning that he couldn't do it. That was after a few games. Thats not to say I don't like Bully though. Manager wise I would pick Hughton, maybe someone like GVB would work out but other than then two maybe Rowett or Monk who have done reasonably well at clubs theres far worse out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These markets are so volatile though unless you have genuine inside info Me, god no...just thought, that's a value bet, I don't usually bet on managers at all, but I like to take a look who is on 'the list'. Must admit I was tempted when bruce went 9/4 from nowhere, I was confident there was something in it but I couldn't see DC letting him go, didn't think he could just say bolllaxe I'm off, legally and morally. Wish I had researched Bruce's background more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
