New owners wanting to bring in their own man?? I've wondered about this possibility as he's kept a low profile even by his standards this summer?

SwellOwl Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 After the QPR game, we then have an international break and 2 weeks before our next match. You would think that a decision will be made by club with either Bullen with experienced coach appointed or a new manager coming in. Seems more sensible and logical to make a decision in this time then now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bullen is going to be appointed, it makes no sense delaying a decision, which makes me think DC is waiting for someone to become available Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Feels like the only managers who are allowed to be in contention are the ones listed at the bookies. There’s thousands of managers in Europe. Over 100 applied for this job, but none are deemed better than Bullen? Something doesn’t add up That's because the Geordies haven't sacked Bruce yet. Give it another 6 games! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I do think we need to appoint someone or there is going to be a masse inquest into to every single draw or defeat.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityowlsfan Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I don't mind nailing my colours to the mast. I'll name 7 managers I'd take over Bullen: 1 Pearson 2 Karanka 3 Holloway 4 Rowett 5 Monk 6 Oscar Garcia 7 Pulis Now you could argue whether they would come, style of football, success in their last job but what you can't argue is their experience in management and in this league. Go!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victorturner Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 3 hours ago, FreshOwl said: I held huge admiration for DC in the way he handled the Bruce situation, and this admiration continued with some shrewd business in the window. But the manager situation is becoming farcical. I think we have a good squad, a squad capable of getting in the play offs. But it needs structure. Are we seriously going to keep plodding along with a caretaker in charge? It’s a bit tinpot/unprofessional. It’s been over 6 weeks, with allegedly over 100 applicants. Sort it out and sort it sharpish Is the squad really better than last season? Fletcher is now bettering his career goals per match record but the team is still not scoring enough goals, the full backs are as poor as they have been for years and the midfield cannot create nor destroy opposition attacks. And still there is no big dominating centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a relative way he might cost "nothing", as he's already on the club's payroll. Can't imagine he's had a pay rise, maybe the promise of some bonuses at best.

Beauchief Owl Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 The cheap option is not always the most economical. Take Bruce on his 2 million per year, for instance. I reckon his transfer dealings probably saved DC his salary for the year whilst improving the squad. A couple more windows like that and we'd be well placed for next season. I'd be happy with Rowett or Monk but TBF LB has had decent results and I can understand DC giving him an extended run at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamAP22D Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 points are ticking along nicely, if we beat qpr which is totally possible, we'll be sat in the top 6 going into a two week break. Sure something will happen in that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its irrelevant who any one on here would pick. chansiri needs to pull his finger out and make a decision. Maybe his decision is to give Bullen a couple of months to see how he gets on rather than most of the fanbase who change their minds after every match.
