your right he could do that, but it doesn't mean he would not drop a division for the right club, he said that himself when he was looking to get back after leaving man utd

[Robbie]

He is firmly in the shop window then !

[alexmur]

money talks and we have it, get him now before he gets another offer

I think he would be one of the best options we could get that's currently available.
Good track record of taking a club up and keeping them there, but not so much top flight experience it's unrealistic. Not been out the game too long. Good transfer track record.

[westcliff white]

Pearson? really, even how bad we are I think we have better options. He seems to have a lot of issues when asked questions and under pressure

[sunburywhite]

Didn't he turn round and have a go at a supporter

Lets hope he doesn't read these pages

[The Rock]

With what the owner is willing to spend he is clearly out of our reach.

[J]

Don't get me wrong, he is far from the perfect appointment, which is probably why he didn't get another Premier League job. More that IMO we won't be able to appoint a top top manager (happily be proved wrong on this!), so basically we have a choice of an imperfect manager who has experience in getting teams promoted, or an up and coming manager who will be another gamble to a degree at least.

[J]

and further to that, there just don't seem to be all that many obvious choices available/out of work, unless there's someone completely not on my radar!

Nasty piece of work. Always had issues on & off the pitch.

Whoever it is he isn't the right choice. He has no experience/ too much experience and never been successful/ never been able to step to the next level. He has a reputation for alienating the dressing room/ for being too friendly. No charisma/ too much showing off. No tactical awareness/too much messing about with the side.

All in all very poor choice and we will not be better off with him. Or her?

[J]

Oo her... Let's appoint that Chelsea doctor :D

[f321ffc]

Not seen him mentioned, how about John Collins? assistant manager at Celtic at the moment great football knowledge.

[Lighthouse]

Oo her... Let's appoint that Chelsea doctor :D

Experience at the top level. Sorted. 049:gif

[Burt]

How's this for a thought.

1. Lets wait and see who is appointed.

2. Lets back them rather than cast judgments before they have even taken a training session.

Do you think this will catch on?

The fact that there is no clear cut replacement is what worries me about sacking Kit. When Liverpool got rid of Rodgers they had Klopp lined up who most would agree is a step up, I don't agree with sacking a manager unless you are going to get someone better in, Magath being the exception for me. We could find ourselves in another situation where a 5 man team is looking for managers during a season surely not a stable or sustainable way of operating.

[Wimbledon_White]

Parker and Curbs to take caretaker charge?

Is Curbs a genuine option as a perm replacement?

[Bassey the warrior]

Whoever it is must be willing to utilise our young talent. It would be a crime for them to be dropped after so much development.

[J]

I'd be fairly pleased with Hasselbaink too, slight gamble as he is up and coming rather than proven but he does have a good reputation building up.
