Alleged that we are opening talks with Graham Potter this week for a "sensational return" according to football insider.
If (amd a big if) it's true and Potter is reappointed, does everyone still trust Bloom 100%?
Why do you keep posting all this about Potter? He's not coming back nor are we going to interview him anyway.

How about…. Rafa. Could do a job, as long as you don’t buy him a lampshade instead of a sofa!

Thought about Brendan early as he would be a good fit, but ruled him out... think both Celtic and Brendan are going to want a lot of money if he's going to repeat leaving Celtic for the PL.
He went to an easy life in the Monkey Tennis League for a reason.

F it... Time to bring back Gus (the gus bus??) ...

But in all seriousness

Honestly I wouldn't mind Rodgers. Similar ethos with possession based play.
I wouldn't mind the return of Potter but I think we should move on.
Pochettino would be my pick but I doubt that would be considered by Bloom and Barber.

Long shot, but I'm still hoping Ruben Amorim is being lined up. They (Sporting) had their last game on Sunday so talks may have been waiting until this week. If he was willing to go to West Ham it's not impossible that he would consider us.

Didn't PB say that we 'w're ready to execute that plan' in regard to succession the day after RDZ left or on the day (online interview). Wonderful CEO but I tend to think he believes his own hype and the clubs a bit. He has talked about succession planning a lot as if it's just us that specialises in it. We should be more of an attraction to a manager but it doesn't seem like that right now.

Hopefully we get someone in soon. In TB, we trust.

If Brendon , A, my ticket would be up on exchange for almost every game and B, would go triple large on us to get relegated

Its only been a week or so and people questioning the reality or quality of a succession plan? Surely the plan is just that, a plan - it just allows the Club to go about its business in a quiet, coordinated way, but doesn't guarantee that the first people we approach get sorted. Every plan has risks/opportunities.
Who knows, our preferred candidate (s) may have been pushed down the list a little further by new, unplanned opportunities.
Just because McKenna has said he's staying put does not in itself call into question the quality of a plan in my opinion.
