shefflatic Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Billy Davies 1st choice Iain Dowie 2nd choice. Ideally - PD would be man enough to let Joe come in as a number two or coach, much like Freedman at Palace. PD has been great at getting the decent squad together but for whatever reason cannot get them playing. Aside from those above, Phil Brown but did :censored: all at Preston Theyve all :censored:ed up somehwere though thats why theyre out of a job except Davies who i thought was harshly sacked........... Q is how much does Davies want to get back into the game - close to Preston where he lived, decent team on paper and a challenge Tough one again though.......

One name that stuck out though was Neil Redfearn who's at Leeds atm. Wiki tells me he's not managed above Scarborough but he could be a replacement?

welshgaz Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Plenty of names there who I would be happy with. Peter Taylor stood out on that list. Used to play for us too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) Hartlepool they had 5 past them at home so its a must win as we are already in bottom 4 Howard and Monkhouse will likely be back for them, if so it could make a big difference.

LaticsSideOfLife Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Sven ! Bring him in! He applied for the Hartlepool job. Wages may not be that high then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I'd like Billy Davies or Steve Cotterill, they've both had success in bringing a struggling club into safety; Cotterill would be #1 choice + Davies has never managed at this level so I'm not sure if he'd take the job anyway. Before he joined Burnley, Sean Dyche was my first choice but we obviously can't get him now. I think he would've been perfect but its in the past now so I'll forget about it. I'm not adverse to a young, first time manager either, they can be successes but for this situation it would be extremely risky to bring one in. Is it one for an older, wise head? All I know is that in January, when the team loses Derbyshire, Baxter and Wabara we will need a manager that can deal in the transfer market on low funds but predominantly it is about motivation and authority and simply getting the players to reach their potential, because if we do get that to happen then I'm almost certain that with this squad we won't be in the bottom 4. See Eddie Howe and Bournemouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh Heck C-Beck Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I think he will be sacked if/when we get beat by Hartlepool as I cannot see them turning it around. Personally, I dont think we are as good as people say player wise so I can see a new man struggling as well but would love to be proven wrong.
