The Telegraph is reliable on football stories. All three names are on our shortlist. Personally I’m relaxed over TB’s eventual choice, implicitly trusting his judgement. I like the way they’re not rushing this.

Just what we need. Another new manager thread!

At least Cooper isn't on that list.
Rydstrom seems like a depressing appointment, destined to fail. Zero pedigree and limited success in a league equivilent to League One at best.
Hurzeler seems like a wildcard option. Had a bit of success and is young enough to be adaptable, but still a massive risk that could go tits up.
Potter is the obvious choice. Proven quality, knows the club. Pretty much guaranteed he won't get us in a relegation battle, even from the perspective of the most pessimistic of fans. Let's just pray he gets the gig.

Not Potter. Absolutely not.
Hurlezer makes you believe something is possible just like RDZ did.

If he was the obvious choice, he'd have have in the job already. Thankfully he's not and won't be.

To be a fly on the wall in a potential Bloom and Potter interview for the job...
Bloom... ''So Graham, we'd like to interview you regarding the vacant managers position''.
Potter.. ''Sooooo, YOU want me back?''
Bloom.. ''Well that depends, do YOU want to come back?''

Potter "Well, I'd quite like an easy life again"
Bloom "I wish I could say that it would be, but there's a handful of NSCers that intend to boo you, or even rip up their season tickets and smash their iPhones"
Potter "It is what it is"
On what evidence?

But I’m the first to bring the proven candidates into a single place for discussion. We can now shut out the noise of assorted false rumours.
Because he knows the club haven't got a clue right now, just like us.

Proven? Not seen anything confirming interest from the club itself. Still all rumors I’m afraid.

Don’t be afraid. The Telegraph is very reliable for football stories.

I'd prefer Potter, think he is what we need right now, but Hurzeler would be exciting.

The evidence posted on the thread that you’ve read and commented on many times
Rather than a washed up big six management failure
I thought you were pro Hurzeler an hour ago?
What’s changed?

How do you know it isn’t Hurzeler’s representatives planting stories in the media to get an improved deal at St Pauli?
Like everyone else, read a couple of articles and I'm pumped. Get him in.
You obviously haven't been following the thread!
