Would be a disaster and right up there with the awful appointment of Jos. Surely the powers that be will take one look at his managerial record and throw his application in the bin.

Blue and white Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Either some grunters are throwing a couple of quid at him being our next manager or someone upstairs is smoking exotic tobacco because those odds are getting worryingly short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitcat Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Big Chans is no chump. He's also desperate for success. Zola doesn't tick any boxes, apart from knowledge of the English game. It won't be him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizzard1867 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 34 minutes ago, Tony Pulis said: Gianfranco Zola is now 2/1 favourite on Sky Bet. Would be the one of the worst appointments we could make imo. Has had no success at any clubs and took Birmingham from Top 6 to the relegation zone. ANY of the other names linked would be better appointments. Even rubbish like Pulis and Keane would still be better than Gianfranco Zola. Please Chansiri, look elsewhere! I'd rather we got Tony Pulis than Zola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be his agent trying to pus him forward as no self respecting football fan could back him. We have reputation for accepting donkeys from agents in managers and players. Bruce was actual exception to that and we have made money out of him. They think we will revert to type and except any closet they serve up.

WindygrOWLer Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) Let's not start panicking too much yet.....maclaren and Gary monk were favourites with the bookies once but we ended up with Jos......oh, wait maybe we should panic....

pazowl55 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Hired Bruce. Has approached Hughton. My guess would be that our next steps are Monk or Rowett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoop Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I’m just playing devils advocate here but maybe he was on a hiding to nothing at Birmingham, the players might have simply downed tools after watching Rowett harshly get the boot He did ok at Watford and West Ham didn’t he?

Rowett would be my pick (given hughton apparently not interested) has a good track record of working on a budget and did a great job at Birmingham before they made stupid decision to appoint zola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Us going from Bruce to Zola is the Championship equivalent of Newcastle swapping Rafa for Bruce. That would complete pretty a dismal couple of weeks for both clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
