The Official Next Manager Discussion Thread

Not even worth talking about. My guess is he'll want to take a break from coaching. At least till next season. That said, he didn't take much of a break after United... Even so, he won't come to fulham.

This is isn't it......its a Moyes out thread

My money is on Steve McClaren. An approach would be welcomed in order for Moyes to go to Newcastle. I'd be happy with this,  he is vastly underrated in my opinion.

This is an interesting one for me.

I met him on a train up to Preston a couple of years back.  Very approachable and happy to chat about football matters.  Said FFC were a good club who played 'some good stuff' - mind you that was two years ago.
Came across as being totally passionate about the game, and as I said was quite happy to chat away for a good twenty mins with me.
Obviously expectations at MUFC were ludicrously high and the pressure on Moyes was maybe too much.  (In a way, his treatment was a bit like Roys at Anfield).

He's got to be worth considering but would he want to jump straight in to FFC so soon??

Now that's Fulhamish......to have a Moyes out thread and he isn't even at the club yet...... 064.gif

The big question is will any of them accept the brief of a top six finish with limited budget for the January window, the crazy man who says yes no problem may get the job.

[love4ffc]

IF.... Moyes would come I would take him in a heart beat.  He has proven he get good things out of a team and Club with a limited budget.  How many years did he manage to keep Everton in mid-table safe from relagation?  To me he is perfect for us.  Especially since we have to deal with the fair play garbage.

David Moyes and Billy McKinlay (worked under Roy Hodgson at Fulham) available:

[Fulham1959]

He is unlikely to want, or be enticed by, an excessive salary package.

I would be really happy to have him.

[MikeW]

To add a few thoughts to my earlier post ... with the benefit of glorious hindsight Moyes was massively over - hyped and under minded at the dreaded Man U.

When you consider what the current clown has spent (nay, wasted) and yet he seems to be bullet proof for assembling a highly expensive but OK team.  Moyes was pilloried and shafted in my view.

Back to earlier comments here ... MOF never stinted on paying to get his goal - Premiership.  He got it and supported it for a good while.  Yes the rewards are massive even in mid table but our new chairman has to realise that he has to have a talisman manager, support him with money and the rewards will come.  We'll never win the Prem but highly competitive top ten, a few cup runs and the support we would give I imagine would be satisfying?

What's the name of his PR man - Jim someone?

 Just heard on the BBC website that we could be in for Jimmy what do you think I think he would be a risk but should we take a gamble, would take Moyes in a heartbeat could do for us what Keegan did, Q.P.R also after Jimmy

Brilliant!

[One James stannard]

My uncles best mates sisters hairdresser has it on good authority that Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is being seriously considered for the post.

[Sgt Fulham]

I don't want another risk. I understand pretty much every managerial appointment is risky but I'd rather go with the tried and tested such as Bruce.

[Pluto]

Would love him but unlikely to happen, as others have said.

Interesting McKinley is his assistant. I wonder if that could work in our favour?

[davew]

No thanks, we want some improvement not same old, same old!!

[J]

He is worth considering and having talks with as an option. Don't know whether he is the right choice, that is the kind of thing the club could (hopefully) find out as part of due diligence / interviewing. But his recent track record is very good.

[MJG]

Could you explain why he would be same old same old?

[davew]

Lack of experience! There again we are not much better than Burton.

[MJG]

Lack of experience!

3rd year of management, one promotion behind him, doing well in the next.

Whats your criteria then Dave? Just interested because seen so many names banded about today we need something to cut them down by.

Championship Exp?
Promotion  from Championship? (If so that rules Moyes out, come to think of it Moyes was last in the championship what 11/12 years ago?)
Out or in a job?
Worked within last 2 years?

Not picking on you, just lots to consider and no one candidate is perfect in any sense of the word.
