I can't see us getting anything at Brentford or Luton, and Rovrum will certainly be fired up, look at earlier in the season when a 3-0 defeat flattered us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlett Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Do you really think the manager gets to pick the team ?..........or decides who's a transfer target.........honestly ??? Who in their right minds would want to work for an interfering, narcissistic, control freak and his poisonous sidekick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn’t a former player, would he have merited a mention on this forum ? regardless of whether he played for us he seems the best option out there, I'd take someone who played for the pigs if he was the best choice. It's about finding a manager who can build a side to get out of League 1, doesn't matter who they played for, unless you can throw other realistic names into the chat?

Knowing what we know What do you think? Can ANY manager work here? It’s possible of course, but would be in spite of the set up we have rather than because of it. Overcoming the challenges of managing SWFC would be hard enough in itself and that’s before you even try winning games or playing entertaining football.

devonshire owl Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Why would he want to come here,he's doing a good job at Plymouth,the players fans and the owner likes what he's doing here.why would he want to spoil it by coming here and working for chansiri for six months.

Flat Owl Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Neil is right. This club isn’t going anywhere but down no matter who the ‘coach’ is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlett Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Before yesterday I thought we had a chance of staying up although it would be close, maybe one point in it or even goal difference. After defeat to Birmingham I can only see relegation looming now and starting in league one ( possibly with another point deduction due to financial "irregularities" ). We will be shopping in the bargain basement for some time. We need someone who knows the lower leagues inside out and has many contacts there. Dare I suggest someone like Keith Hill, formerly Rochdale, Bolton Wanders and now Tranmere manager who over his career has a near 40% win ratio. Not the most inspiring but a good solid manager. But again I stress who in their right minds would want to be Wednesday manager with Chansiri's interference and ineptitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmigo Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Ryan Lowe ffs We will stay up easily this season, get big dunc in, spendageddon , do the double over the pigs and go up to the prem.

sheffield_dave Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Why would he come here? I keep seeing Plymouth pop up as being one of the better run up and coming clubs in the football league. He’s got a striker on his hands that apparently they want millions for, and presumably he’ll actually get a chunk of that to spend. I mean talk about a contrast to here.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon he’d swap being at Plymouth, simply because we’re perceived as a much bigger club Would imagine he’d want to test himself at a bigger club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A massive ground that doesn’t have any fans in it anyway? The potential to get a load of flak and/or sacked if we get stuck there like Sunderland are (or worse)? Lowe was involved at Bury. He’s probably looking at us and thinking he doesn’t fancy that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know how far “bottoming out” goes this time for us but I’m personally not ruling out losing the club. “Fancy the challenge” is one way of putting it. As I say, Plymouth are a club going in the right direction, and probably feel like they have a blueprint in what Brighton and Bournemouth have done. Our current trajectory looks more like Bolton and Portsmouth. I think the days of young managers feeling the need to prove anything at a perceived “bigger” club are gone. Ryan Lowe doesn’t need Sheffield Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Looks like building a decent managerial career. I like Lowe and he would have an element of goodwill from our fanbase, given his connection to the club. But....whether Lowe or anyone else, it's just a waste of time until we get a competent owner.

We are not down yet though. But there has been a lot managers linked since pulis was given the boot. All good but 1 stands out for me is Roy keane. Only managed 2 clubs and didnt do too bad with them and was assistant and pundit at min. He has seen and played through alot of football in his career and is still young id say he has learnt a lot and it would be good to turn our club around.

I think there would be a feeling in football clubs wouldn't touch him, might as well stick Joey Barton in there. Lowe, if we could get him could potentially do what Wilder had done across town. We need that type of mindset now rather than thinking we are a big club that will attract a fancy name. I mentioned Lowe as it is simply finding a manager with the right work ethic to do the job at that level and build from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, if we are relegated not many Managers of renown would be willing to take the job, so that leaves us with Managers that are currently doing good work in league one promoted sides would probably keep their Manager, so Ryan may be available, and knowing the division along with knowing players at this level, and cheap, cheaper than what we have at mo, which would please Chansiri, it could come to fruition.
