The "if Poyet leaves, the next Albion manager should be..." thread

[JJ McClure]

Bloody hope he stays but if not there's only three names I'd want to be on the shortlist. Di Matteo, Adkins and Di Canio.

 

[Foolg]

Andy Crosby Assistant

Funnily enough, he was at our game with Barnsley last week as was stood behind me in the ticket office queue. Not sure why, or what he's up to at the moment.

 

[B52]

Nigel Adkins Manager
Andy Crosby Assistant
Dean Wilkins first team coach

And Charlie?

 

[BHAMalcom]

Next manager will be Di Canio

 

[screamadelica]

Calderon

 

[Frutos]

Next manager will be Di Canio

I doubt it.

Would Tony Bloom really appoint a well-known fascist/fascist sympathiser?

 

[Pavilionaire]

Di Canio - it's gotta be Sheff Wed, surely?

 

[Commander]

Why do people keep suggesting Di Canio? How many Jews would employ somebody pictured Nazi saluting?

More chance Mourinho taking over.

 

[Stat Brother]

The mad dash to get the bestest Calde odds should be an Olympic event.

 

[kevtherev]

Curbishley for me.

 

[rouseytastic]

Paolo Di Canio?

300%

 

[SeafordBHA]

Don't want Di Canio, would cause so many problems, he's worse than Poyet.

Don't like Calde suggestions, surely he'd have no tactical knowledge of being a manager etc?? Maybe in the future after a different coaching role with us. Oatway would be slightly more suited but still don't think he knows enough to take us forward.

Di Matteo would have to be No. 1 if we could get him. Ralf Rangnick is a good shout if his health improved. Anyone know if he enjoyed living here?? Don't really fancy like anyone like Adkins etc. Needs to be someone who can continue the continental style of play IMO.

Curbishley for me.

Been out of it for far too long. We need a more modern forward-thinking manager to follow on from what Gus has built. I just feel Curbs is too "old-school" for us now.
(And I wanted him when Gus was appointed - just feel we have moved on now)

 

[METALMICKY]

Di Matteo would be fine for me.

Anyone suggesting DiCanio needs there heads testing. A loose cannon liability and a fascist!

 

[portslade seagull]

Adkins looks a good bet

 

[chucky1973]

It would have to be someone that has a Spanish influence, otherwise we will lose all our Spanish flair but GUS is staying

 

[Southern Toon]

 

[The Andy Naylor Fan Club]

Rafa Benitez.

What a load of old crap...This theory that football has changed, is complete rubbish. It's a game played by 11 men against 11 men, on a grass pitch with a goal at either end, it's not open heart surgery. He is a football man and has been all his life and has the Albion connection to boot.....Gus is a perfect example of the modern, forward thinking manager....what happened Sunday, back to basic two wingers and oh, surprise surprise.....Football is a simple game, it's only the idiots that try and over complicate it.

Lets hope so but not looking good
