Final Super Manager Poll

[Lord Snooty]

We've weeded out the none runners with several polls.

Some have ruled themselves out. Some have taken jobs at other big clubs abroad. 

 

Sob here's the final cut of the popular choices.

 

Who do you want?

holloway all the way

[Freshfish]

Should have been alphabetical order ...and two Gary Rowetts? 

[S36 OWL]

Olly for me 

[Onge]

What a depressing list. I know our gambles with unproven managers have all failed in the past, but I'd rather we go for someone young and hungry than a big name with more failures than successes on their CV.

 

So, some random foreign manager none of us have ever heard of it is!

[Tracksuit]

Back in the 90’s Arsene Wenger told Gerard Houllier that Wednesday were a club that were going nowhere.

 

As a result Houllier turned us down & a year or two later took on the Liverpool job.

 

I don’t think we’ll get anyone with an Arsenal connection so that rules Arteta, GVB & Bergkamp out.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst

Would be my choice over Ian Holloway

Split the vote so it looks like he isn't doing well. 

Oldest trick in the book.

The thing is....

 

No one , if they're honest, had really heard of Arsenal Wenger when he first turned up on these shores.

 

I'm sure there's others out there that might not thrill when we hear the name but who might go on to really make themselves a name at Hillsborough. .

 

Hope so.

GVB. Time to show some ambition and forward thinking. The Championship can now attract high profile managers. Go get one DC and forget all the typical names and job hoppers. Gio is the man.

So our travails are all Arsene's fault !

[Quist]

I am seriously worried with voting on that poll.

[Matthew Thomas]

Stephen Constantine. Let’s go big, let’s go left field, it’s the Wednesday way.

Some of em are.

 

This makes reference to it but think there is more in Houlliers book.

 

He would have been a great appointment at the time.

 

We ended up with Danny Wilson.

[jonnyowl]

I can't decide tbh!

 

There are some names I'd be ok with and others I want nowhere near the club!

 

There isn't one name who stands out!

 

Think Rowett, Monk and Karanka would be good choices.

 

Wouldn't mind taking a punt on Van Bronckhorst or Arteta!

 

Happy to take a chance on Stendl, Cowley or Bullen!

 

Just a massive no to McLaren, Moyes , Zola and Keane!

Bronckhorst if not Rowett if not Bullen if not Moyes.

And do you think that legacy lives on with next generation of managers ?

Remember when we got Varadi from Newcastle who did the geordies replace him with an unknown player called Peter Beardsley as good a player Varadi was he wasn't a patch on Beardsley, wouldn't it be nice for us to unearth an unknown gem that is better than the one we've lost

Don't see hughtons name on here. One newspaper writes him out so it must be true.
