Even under Pulis it cant get much worse than the football on Saturday and Bullen hasn't taken a championship side up either. That's ultimately where we are at.

markg Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Reckon they'd be a bit scared to leave. It's their first job really and if you do badly in your second job you almost have to start again. Look at Hurst. Stock was high and he moves to Ipswich and does poorly and everyone thinks he would be a bad choice for the championship, even though no one could really have done much at Ipswich. Same with Nathan Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellowbelly Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 If this happens you’ve got to hand it to DC - Rhodes, Bruce and Cowley, he gives the fans what they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they stay at Lincoln there will come a time when things start to go wrong and no doubt at that point they won’t be in such high demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you're right that they don't set the pulses racing. I guess it's about who's available/would come here. We know who we all really want, but the problem is that he doesn't want us. He's probably never forgiven us for that play-off semi-final. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Nathan Jones. Not sure i'd agree with that sentiment, what better time to move up then when your stock is high!!?. Clearly a few champ chairman think they could do a job at that level. Who's to say that if they stay at Lincoln they wont hit a wall this season and it turns out to be a step too far for the squad they have and the end up struggling at that level??, if that happens their star will start to dim, now would be the perfect time to see if they can step up another level. Football is a fickle mistress, they need to get while the gettings good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109Waddle Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 The Cowleys are a step up from Hurst, they’ve transformed Lincoln and have been successful consistently at each level. Let’s not get above ourselves, we need an overhaul and have stagnated for a fair few seasons. These two would be ideal imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I would be very happy if we get them in. Would much prefer these over the other managers linked, people like Pulis, Coleman, Bullen, Zola. Young exciting, highly rated manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes apeshyte, out of work in a year. Career in tatters. Turned hudds down on similar dosh, i would want £1.5m yr, on 5 yr contract. It's not all about money, but mostly it is.

latemodelchild Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 The team needs a bit of an overhaul. We have some old and new players that need to gel. A new manager gives everyone a fresh start and I think that's what is needed. It happened with Bruce but now we've gone back to how it was before. Bullen is a nice guy and all but something doesn't quite work for him. No idea what it is but on Saturday we looked like we did under moustache boy. I don't want that. I want someone to come in and give us an identity and style. I want someone to reform our club and become a legend. I don't care who it is, but I think it needs to happen sooner rather than later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
