As you can see by my avatar, I'm connected. No decision has been made except to exclude Felix & Jol. (Thank God)

Think Keegan, Tigana, Hodgson - we pushed the boat out and got the results.  Go for Moyes

I allegedly saw Susan George in London yesterday. She has to be a rank outsider though, she knows nothing about football.

Anybody else allegedly seen anyone in London lately?

Only Lord Lucan, Shergar and The Scarlet Pimpernel.
I also got a glimpse of a Cardboard Cut Out of Harry Redknapp.

FULHAM MANAGER LATEST

Sky Sports News HQ understands that the shortlist for the next Fulham head coach's job has five names on it and reads as follows:

Paul Lambert, Nigel Pearson, the former Watford manager, Slavisa Jokanovic, Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett and Mark Warburton, presently manager at Rangers.

It's our understanding Fulham are looking for a head coach with proven track record in the Championship.

Another 'understands' report.

Would be disappointed if it is Pearson. Not sure if it is realistic to lure Warburton away from Rangers or even Rowett from Birmingham although they have financial problems. Lambert a safe pair of hands. Jokanovic is the most exciting.along with Warburton.

Playing safe for the short term goal of getting in the top six rather than going for a manager for the medium to long term?

Tend to agree with the "playing safe" theory. If the owner wants premier league, then go get people familiar with what is required. This.."no, not quite a manager, just a head coach" seems to suggest a dilution of the will to gain back lost territory by retaining a fair bit of the status quo...bearing in mind it was just that that lost us the ground in the first place.

On a comic note...

Scott Parker is 25/1 to be our next manager, above clear rank outsiders like...

Oscar Garcia, Mark Warburton, Gus Poyet...

Ok I'll stop now :')

Anyone but Curbishley

I would be happy with that but not sure it is going to be him.

I recall listening to Terry Gibson on talksport, who was talking about why Moyes was struggling in Spain. Becoming quite close to Moyes, he claims that Moyes is a very hands on manager, often after an Everton game would drive up or down the M1 to catch a player he was interested in to watch them in person.

But with Spain being such a big country thats not really an option. And the Spanish set up is how we are trying to be - director of football with a Head Coach. For that reason, I don't think he would entertain our current set up.

after listening to riggs I think they want someone that's just all football and results and that's moyes in a nut shell. I'm sure whoever it is will still have a good sat in the ins and outs

Would Moyes not expect to become manager of a Prem team?

A good appointment if we could get him, but sadly doubt it.

I like to think with the squad we have and the performances we have put in however inconsistent alot of hopeful managers/coach's would jump at the chance at Fulham. being a London club is also huge pull to sign players too plus we have cash, and money talks

Anyone but Curbishley

Steve Evans, Harry Redknapp, Felix Magath, etc.?

[..Kya.ffc..]

I hope so. Would be a very good fit for both, but very unlikely I think.

But I will keep calm and hope until proven otherwise.

If he comes to FFC he will be managing in the Prem next season.
