In that context, why would my shortlist have the managers relegated last season on it ? Pearson , Howe, cook - all relegated. Who are you putting forward?

Bet he thought Palace or WBA were gunna call him till he was beginning to get forgot about so made a few visits to Sky sports to jump at the Forest job. Personally think there's a bit of a difference between Hughton, who's never really had a sustained successful run in the PL, and Howe who kept Bournemouth there for half a decade while invariably beating two or three of the big boys every season.

You are more of a wind up than Owlstalk himself & Farrell at times. Cook clearly has mitigating circumstances for the relegation last season and got a good points return 2 seasons in a row at this level considering the squad he was working with.

crookesowl Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Howe will be waiting for a PL job. If DC manages to land him it will be a big shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but thats now down to Chansiri to prove if he has learned from his mistakes, go after a decent option and sell him the club and a vision and let him have the tools to do the job.

I suspect you know this already but I'll keep you amused by responding anyway. Parker did so on the back of relegation with probably the biggest budget in the league. Bielsa and Bilic have plenty of management experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
