A E Neuman NYowl Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Interesting choice Danny Cowley and someone who should certainly be considered. His record is very good not only his promotions but also getting none league Lincoln to the FA cup quarter final. In interviews comes over as thoughtful and intelligent probably down to his University education. I watched Lincolns cup run with interest a couple of years ago, it was exciting but the football was very direct. I don't think I have actually seen them play since the cup run, do they still play very direct or have they refined the style ? The reason I am asking this is I am not convinced that very direct football is the way to go in the championship. FWIW. I think he will end up at Huddersfield who like to take a punt with managers.

Blue and white Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Everything they touch seems to turn to gold, they have little old Lincoln 2nd in the league and playing well above their level. Sooner or later a bigger club will give them there chance and I see mo reason why that shouldn't be us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F. Spiksley Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 If the Cowley brothers are that jeffing good then they’d be at a bigger club already. IMHO. Blows smoke and polishes mirrors. NITK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Wish we would have the ambition, foresight and forward thinking to go and bring in someone on the rise like the Cowley's. I'd personally much prefer them to the typical out of work has beens or failures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally wouldn't mind Hughton or Cook but I think this season is a mere rebuild job after Bruce. To revive it and to build for the future, we should take a leaf out of Villa's book after they got rid of Bruce, they brought in Dean Smith. I think we'd be better off rebuilding and building an identity and way of playing by giving for a high profile foreign manager on the rise or someone on the rise within the EFL. Instead of going for has beens or failures on the decline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Night King Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I think they’ll wait for a better championship offer if they are to jump ship. A parachute payment club where they'll have the resources to mould a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we're being prudent with what we have available (long overdue), but FFP wise we've reduced the wage bill considerably, brought in funds from Bruce compensation, sale of Joao and have a profit in the 3 year cycle following the stadium sale. Might have my wednesday tinted spectacles on, but think we're an infinitely more attractive prospect than huddersfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
