Okay, as I got all 3 of those wrong, I guess you are just bouncing Nathan Jones threads to put you/him in the forefront for Graham Potter's replacement then!!!

No not at all.

Potter is the man, and I back him.

I just think Nathans doing a great job and Luton are punching above their weight.

It would be nice to see him get to the top, albeit with Luton, who I don't particularly favour.


Didn't he do a swallow dive at the Withdean???

Does anyone remember that?

If Luton do the unthinkable and somehow come up, where will they groundshare next season?

Vicarage Road
stadium:MK

Any other possibilities

Why is it unthinkable? They're third.

5th smallest budget.

We all know teams are only able to finish the season in accordance with their budget.

Please don't anyone seriously suggest Nathan f*cking Jones for next through the Albion revolving managerial door. NJ is as mediocre as the current mediocre guy and all his little elves

I don't understand why we've not gone for that Croatian bloke. You know, the one who has never won anything as a manager, the one who's been sacked from all his appointments within 2 years.

Oh...

Need to be sacked at least five times before you reach THPP levels of greatness.

Very impressive, great work in his two spells at Luton, operating on ‘buttons’.

Competing against parachute money clubs and others bankrolled by the mega rich.

Builds team spirit, oozes passion. Remember him signing from Southend, their player of the season. Knew we were going up with that sort of quality signing alongside others. Good old Skippy, could we see him back one day? Undefeated as Albion manager too!

No objection from me if Bloom thinks so. Impressive season from them. Him or Steve Cooper. First time I'm really starting to doubt Potter with the lineups substitutions last few games

Why’s Steve Cooper any different from Potter ? Will be interesting to see how he does end of this season - but 2 failed play offs in a row isn’t great endorsement

I'm no fan of Steve Cooper... while he'll get the chance in the PL at some point I think he might end up in the "great in the Championship, wont work in the PL" category with his style of football.

But it needs to be said that it was a good achievement getting Swansea to the playoffs twice and not surprising that they lost against the stronger team (Brentford) both times.

As for next manager there is some interesting names out there. Mazzu, obviously. Kjetil Knutsen. Thomas Letsch. Will be a rough day when GP leaves but I'm still going to be very curious about the next move.

Perhaps but neither game they turned up. And nothing makes me think that the ‘experiment’ would be any different than Potter and only reinforces our recruitment policy doesn’t meet our ambitions

I'm struggling to think of any manager more un Graham Potter like than ermmm . . . Nathan Jones.

The same applies to his methods and his footballing philosophy.

Make your mind up. You don’t like mediocre but you don’t like passion either.

Personally I'd take a mediocre manager who prioritises winning games over plaudits for pretty football that is actually largely dull as ****
