"Didn't seem to do much as 'advisor' to Kit or maybe Kit wasn't listening"

Impossible for us as fans to know which.

I think we could do a lot worse than offer Curbs. the job for the rest of the season. I'd prefer him to several of those speculated in the press as front runners, including Bruce. (Can't see attracting Moyes as a realistic proposition but if it is, great, despite the worryingly intense eyes.)

Says the job at Fulham is 'an attractive proposition'.

Personally I'd rather not have him as manager.  Didn't seem to do much as 'advisor' to Kit or maybe Kit wasn't listening.

I would much rather see either Lambert, Bruce or Moyes.

totally agree with you

I'm not very confident that Khan will make the right choice no matter who it turns out to be.  Nothing in his history with Jacksonville or Fulham leads me to believe anything different.  He is very successful in business, but I haven't seen it translated to his clubs.  He's a nice guy so I hope I'm wrong.

He hasn't managed a football team for 7 years, why the hell would you want him in after that amount of time?

Betting shifted again - Nigel Pearson now 5/4 fave, Haisselbank drifted out to 11/4 and Moyes to 8/1.

yeah strange he is favouraite for both us and QPR. I dont think they have  clue

I think you are right they are just reflecting where people are putting money on. think I might put a 10er on moyes

Mark my words, this will be Riggs call.

I find it astounding that people are saying we are already showing a lack of ambition.

Who exactly do you expect us to be attracting?

We are in The Championship and our budgets wont get us a Moyes, Rodgers or Allardyce. We can ask...but it would be futile.

The Lamberts, Pearsons, Bruces and Makays of this world are not us showing a 'lack of ambition'; quite the contrary, we are showing we have some self-awareness and realism.

To be fair, you did constantly bang on about how Kit would be here for the rest of the season, only for him to be sacked 16 games in, so it'll be likely that we'll end up attracting one of the above names.

Deluded.

It's clear that at this stage nobody has a clue.
I would prefer a promising up and coming manager like JFH or the ex Watford chap Jankovic(sp) or a real statement of ambition with Moyes rather than all the usual suspects that are being put forward who have been round the block a few times. Even if they have had some success at this level there is no guarantee that they would be successful again.
My way would be riskier but we could be onto a winner. Look at the gamble that Norwich took this time last season.

Video just posted show he wants only a head coach and nothing more than that.

So when we appoint a Head Coach will he wear a suit or tracksuit in the dugout on matchdays.?

My understanding is She will wear a comfortable twin set and pearls. In the evening games she may well borrow my faded pink chiffon ball gown. But at the moment that is all up in the air. My fault for leaving a window open on a blustery day. Nobody to blame but myself.

No he will wear a tracksuit in the Championship to show he means business.  A suit when he gets us up to the PL to show he is better then all the Championship lot.  A hoodie when he gets the sack and ends up in the Department of Work and Pensions so as to hide his mug.

Bowyer sacked at Blackburn another club looking for a manager

Here's hoping Khan doesn't interfere.

How about the hair shirt and crown of thorns after each defeat or setback?
