His day for a big job will come. Possibly elsewhere. Will it? He's been the Academy boss for a short period of time and whilst an away win at Fulham is going to look good on his CV, I'm not sure that will get him a manager's job anywhere in league football. He seems like a top bloke and it was genuinely heartwarming to have a fellow blue celebrating with the players on the pitch at Craven Cottage. I'm sure he's good at what he does but I'd have thought this was his best chance if he was going to get offered a job. I hope he's rewarded with a long-term contract and looks after the youths (which I'm guessing he enjoys) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our owner will admit mistakes were made. Some will hope or presume he’ll learn from them but he won’t. League two pergatory becomes the new League one pergatory. We have a bit of FA Cup success in five years time. And continue to sign players whose names I struggle to pronounce. My thought exactly when I looked at the league table on way home on Saturday. Who knows though? This is Latics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryBosch Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 I'm up for it being Scholes but only for the nobble it's going to be. The media exposure will be fun and I can't for the life of me see any point in doing this if he's not going to attract additional investment and/or a higher standard of player. I don't see him as a manager and don't see him lasting 5 minutes either as a result of me being right about that or as a result of him clashing with Abdallah very early on. Or as a result of Abdallah carrying on his hiring and firing. If he's bringing Butt with him as rumoured that might give us a better chance of success as he seems a bit less highly strung. Butt (or someone like him) doing most of the nitty gritty and Scholes being more of an old fashioned, hands off morivator/tactician might work. I'll be ecstatic if I'm wrong and he's a revelation.

HarryBosch Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Noticeable across here. Twitter, Facebook etc... there's a real disconnect between the sound among us with a healthy & proper hatred of anything United and our millennial & exiled supporters many of whom seem a bit morally challenged and appear to have no soul.

Won’t he surely, at the very least, be on Latics’ shortlist again next time the hot seat’s vacant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, possibly... I stand corrected - he'll have this opportunity every few months... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
