Ince and Holla hardly start and both have been good when called upon. I'm hopeful that a new manager will actually start them consistently ahead of JFC and Gardner rather than sign a new player in that position!

So, let me get this right. We took a while appointing the last manager and he was the wrong choice. So, is your logic that we should rush into this appointment? Just wanted to clarify.

Is there a point to you posting on here? The only times I've seen you post is with a negative comment! Are you depressed or just a WUM?

I still think we'll get Hughton if we want him. In terms of Pulis, where in the article does it quote anyone from the Albion? It could just as easily have been guesses by the Argus or come from Pulis himself.

What a joke of a post. How anyone can seriously think the board want us in League 1 is ridiculous. What exactly do you think Pulis, Hughton etc would have thought weeks ago? Would they believe no other job would ever come up and take ours in panic at being unemployed forever? No, they would...

Amazingly, that's the same Andy Naylor who two days ago wrote an article saying Albion were closing in on our new manager. People who are panicking on here, what does that tell you? Also, we're not talking about taking weeks. Nothing in the article suggests we won't have a new manager in place...

As said elsewhere, the poll is pointless as it only allows you to keep one of them (clearly not the point). We will keep Joe Bennett and Texeira as they're on season long loans. Bennett is by far our best left back so happy with that and Texeira on his day can change games. He's not had many...

Absolutely. Whether we sign Murray, try to extend Bent's loan or sign another player, we definitely need a target man in January. Murray would be a great option!

It may feel like that now but look at Birmingham. They sacked Clarke, then lost 8-0 at home to Bournemouth in the next game. In comes Rowett and turns it around and suddenly pretty much the same players are well clear of the relegation zone. Surely, a new manager will see what Ince offers, for...

Not sure that's true now. I would have agreed with you before Burke went but I think he's gone for exactly that reason. We really need an experienced manager and they will want control. Burke's departure means they will have that. Sherwood is an interesting one. He's got no experience of this...

You can just imagine the press conference. Tony Bloom "We don't really rate Chris but he's the only one who'd take the job at the moment. We're just not going to let him buy any £7 million strikers"

I'm not sure about Hughton. He did really well at Newcastle. Took them up (obviously with a very large budget) and then stabilised them in the Premier League and I think was unlucky to be sacked. He also did well at Birmingham to get them to the play offs after relegation. At Norwich, he kept...

Would be interesting to see what would have happened if Bloom had restructured in the summer and given Oscar free reign. It's all pointless now as we'll never know but we never really used the contacts he had in Spain to bring in players, with the exception of David Rodriguez. We got in quite a...

Happy Christmas! Hopefully we'll all get the new manager we want for Christmas!

Personally, I think a lot of people had got fed up with the moaning all summer from certain sections of supporters on here. They spent their time moaning about the clubs transfer policy meaning that when we did get a few players in and a couple of wins, there was always going to be a thread like...

I've nothing against David Burke but this seems a good decision by the club. I'm sure the director of football position can work in big Premier League clubs but it doesn't seem necessary in the Championship. It also leaves the manager in a position where they can be judged on performances by...

Well your local paper clearly thought it was worth printing! Also, if you're going to make clever comments, you might want to bear in mind we've only ever bought two players for the figure and one we sold on for £8 million!

Need more football managers with monocles and a pocket watch. Go back to the good old days. Add in a bowler hat and you'd have a winning combination. Longer term, we could even think about providing a comfortable chair for the manager (rather than sitting in the stands) and a roaring fire!

Leicester home and away, Bolton home and away, QPR home, Charlton home are all wins that spring to mind. Blackburn away was also an exciting game, even though we drew. Nobody is saying Oscar is perfect but it's sad that he doesn't get the credit for what he did, even after what's happened this...

Don't understand this attitude as the logic is so obvious. We had a solid defence last year as, until the last few games, we were able to keep the same back 5. Going forward, we had horrendous luck with injuries. In midfield/up front, Hoskins didn't play all season, CMS only featured in the...
