beswetherick Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) If we’re just appointing someone for the rest of the season... then just give it to Thompson to hopefully keep us up, and start drawing up a list of potential new managers to take over for next season. Well, two lists - one if we stay up and one if we don’t. It seems mad to bring in someone totally new who doesn’t know the players just to manage for half a season then start the whole process again in summer... but this is Wednesday we’re talking about, there’s every chance we’ll go through two more managers before the end of this season Edited January 4, 2021 by beswetherick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F. Spiksley Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I wonder what Alan Curbishley is up to these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Rolands cv is better than anyone mentioned so far. Don’t think we could tempt him at the moment but he would be a good appointment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 And we could add a new line to the song ” and the manager is Roland Nilsson” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kraschenbern Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I think Roland would be a superb appointment. His legend status would galvanise fans, and would also probably allow him some time. He knows the city, the fans, English football. And his links in Scandinavia could allow us to find some decent, relatively cheap players, who would adapt to English football quickly. I understand people not wanting to ruin his status as a legend, but I think he would be aware of that, so if we were doing really badly, I think he would do the decent thing and walk. All hypothetical at the moment, but we could do far worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Crawshaw Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 5 hours ago, Rogers said: 11 jobs in 10 years. Including assistant manager of the Phillipines. Played only in lower leagues in Portugal and abroad, including bizarrely a season at Margate. Managed also in lower leagues in Portugal and was assistant to Lamouchi at Forest. I can't see anything he has done to recommend him as a candidate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 13 minutes ago, Owls Loyal said: Great player for us. What are his achievements in management? He won the league in Sweden (2010). Has been managing Sweden's youth teams (U17's and then U21's) for the past 6 years so hard to measure his achievements there. Did actually manage Coventry for a season right at the start of his managerial career in the Championship. Strachan was sacked after 5 games (4 points, in 19th). Took them to fringe of playoffs before losing 5 of his last six matches and being sacked with the team in 10th place with 1 game to go (P40 W19 D5 L16).

Big Jack Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Its apparently an appointment until end of season, so no need to give an outsider the job, given no one with any credentials will want a short term job, fighting relegation with a chairman who is unpredictable . Makes sense to keep it in house and hope we stay up, DC then sells club and we can get a proper manager in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley8 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Balthazar....... Another Portuguese manager on the list. Right now looking at these linked managers, why are we not making more of trying to force Paxo out than Chansiri! All the attention falls on Chansiri but Paxo seems to be the man pulling the strings...... It's Either Chansiri ignores Packs advice or Paxos advice is bad. There are too many names at the top end of the betting that have done nothing and most are Portuguese....... This idea of connecting with a company and getting their players and managers has been a disaster why are we just allowing it to carry on and just accepting it...... It clearly is a major factor in the mismanagement of the club..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me paxo is the real boss..chansiri hates boring football and anyone who can't get top 6...he usually sacks em after 12months tops.. Not mr paxo though, even though he has 'a say' in recruitment. Doesn't make sense to me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
