If Clement is also favourite for WBA and guessing premiership maybe his choice I have to say that is a very disappointing list. Mowbray sacked by last two teams, Hughton with a reputation for negative football and two hot heads in Lennon and Sherwood. And then there is Appleton! I hope TB has something surprising up his sleeve.

Di Matteo looks good value at 28-1. He has a pretty impressive CV and would surely embrace our footballing culture.

28-1 looks nice.

With Clement apparently seeming unlikely now, in the words of the late Brian Moore 'It's Up for Grabs Now'

I have never liked Hoddle
but have a sneaking suspicion
I have heard nothing
Mrs said a while ago it might be him
and she is always right ...................or thinks she is

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

Surely Hoddle is already drawing his pension!

 

[algie]

I seriously don't want Clement. I hope West Brom snap him up

What about Dan Petrescu ?

What about Dan Petrescu ?

Does he still have that funny coloured hair?

 

[Willy Dangle]

Have a mate who works for the Evening Standard and he text me to say Laudrup was on the short list. I wouldn't take anything he says as worth noting but it was put in a serious context. Media speculation should not be listened too or that's what I keep telling myself.

 

[Codner's Wallop]

Shocked to see Mowbray so high up the list. Seems like a decent fella and they LOVED him at WBA despite relegation....BUT...his managerial record since then is poor. Celtic was a disaster and his spell at Boro was equally abject and depressing. I couldn't feel more apathetic towards an Albion managerial appointment, were it to happen.

Would take him, but didn't he say after he left Swansea that he doesn't envisage a return to English football

My take on it

 

[Willy Dangle]

Would take him, but didn't he say after he left Swansea that he doesn't envisage a return to English football

He said he envisage unless the mighty stripes came knocking. Nothing in it IMO.

 

[Marshy]

if not Clement it has to be Sherwood, I really cant stand the other choices, they are just so dull.

 

[8ace]

Money for Zola this evening I see...

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

We are something of the order of the eighth largest budget in the Championship looking for a top six place with good boardroom support and excellent facilities. £500k a year salary. A nice managerial post for sure.

It could be we are looking for the Premiership jobs to be filled before our man becomes clear and we all move forward.

 

[Steve.S]

Has anyone mentioned Ramos as a contender?

Ibrahim Tanko

To quote Wikipedia

'Ibrahim Tanko (born 25 July 1977) is a scout and football manager, '

FFS, how can a scout be a decent football manager!!!! FFP forcing us to bivouac in the New Forest next before next season's away match at Bournemouth?

He is only 25-1!

Dark Horse?
