[Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

[John Byrnes Mullet]

Potter just gone to 7/4 from12/1 on Sky Bet.

 

[Paris]

I'm sure I read on this forum a month or so ago that Russell Martin's local academy activities in relation to the Albion's own search for local young talent, has mudded the waters over recent years.

In short, it would be difficult for him to represent our club. Even if we were/are interested.

Realistically, there are only 3 candidates now Farioli gone.

McKenna
Martin
Potter (plan B).

Every premier league club wants McKenna, even though he is unproven and a big risk. Only 2 will give him more than a few months to prove himself, BHA and Ipswich. Unless McKenna wants more time in the championship with Ipswich, or to commit managerial suicide like Potter, BHA is the best choice IMO.

Martin if Southampton don’t get promoted. That’s a big IF and waiting for that result could mean losing out on McKenna for sure.

Potter, a big slice of humble pie would need to be eaten by him, but he fits all criteria, like it or not. Personally, I wouldn’t be against his appointment. Very capable of adapting from Potterball to RDZ tactics and possibly improving them. He’s had plenty of chance to study tactics after being sacked by Chelsea.

Fariioli is favourite at 5/4 on Skybet,

He’s 7/1 , 4th favourite on 365.

Nobody has a clue, do they.

Graham Potter is now favourite on Skybet. 7/4 with McKenna 11/4.
Farioli is no longer on the list.

I am flabbergasted that 57 folk in here voted for the return of Potter, I really am, he may have a similar set of stats to RDZ, but by god, his departure and that of his sycophants in the aftermath has really left a sour taste... he won't get my support.

I just want a manager that reminds the players that it is okay to shoot from distance rather than walk the ball in.

 

[heathgate]

Probably not (mostly) the same fans.

Many are very vocal about NOT wanting him back, they're probably the ones that 'hated' him.

I'm in the Potter Back camp, but I never hated him. Everything he did at the club was positive - including leaving and being unsuccessful at Chelsea.

He's a great manager and would be a great fit for next season.

If he was that good, surely he would have been pulled up for one of the many high profile jobs that have become available in the time since he was given the push in West London.!?

He’s turned down jobs. Ajax & Lyon for starters.

Favourite on sky bet.Surely bloody not

 

[Bridcutt]

I can't see how the club would be fine getting rid of De Zerbi only to have Potter back.

 

[TomandJerry]

Potter the favorite...

 

[Brian Fantana]

If only there were other threads discussing this.

I can do that over Teams!!

There might be more angles on this thread

 

[fruitnveg]

Betting odds mean only one thing; there are a lot of stupid people about to lose a lot of money. They have no bearing on even the likelihood of our club being interested.

 

[Gazwag]

So somebody put £1 on him not really another new thread worthy

 

[Reddleman]

I would be delighted to see him back. I know others don’t feel the same.

Interesting to see how many of those who claim ‘in Tony we Trust’ really stick to that when we make decisions they don’t agree with!

 

[SeagullinExile]

Betting odds mean absolutely nothing ffs.
