Dennis Wise (5 Viewers)

[Sick Boy]

I put on £20, at 14-1 the odds were too good to turn down, especially as it was confirmed he had applied this morning.

I had a £350 win last week, hopefully I am on a roll!

Wise was successful in all of his managerial jobs - with AND without Poyet.

Which club was he without Poyet?

 

[Up North Sky Blue]

What does he do now? Is he still twiddling his thumbs at Newcastle? 40 application apparently.

He left Newcastle ages ago, keep up.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Which club was he without Poyet?

Millwall, I believe.

 

[Up North Sky Blue]

So 3 relatively high profile managers have applied at this level.

Where are all the people who post on here who have always said no one would want the job?

:thinking about::thinking about:

Talkin shit elsewhere probably.

 

[Up North Sky Blue]

Wise being among the applicants is also on the front page of the BBC website. We'd get more attention with him in...not that that should be a high priority at all. Just an observation.

Correct. Good point.

 

[Disorganised1]

We need a manager that will stamp his authority on the team and get us playing for one another. The crazy gang mentality Wise shared at Wimbledon is exactly the type of thing we need. We have young creative players that will benefit from Wise's experience. Good choice in my opinion.

The crazy gang that Thorn was a member of at Wimbledon ?

 

[Sick Boy]

'The Coventry board have received a high volume of applications vying for the first managerial opening of the season'

Who would want the job though, we couldn't get anyone better anyway!!!

 

[Mr pot]

Whatever the outcome I can only expect disappointment

 

[I'mARealWizard]

Dennis Wise would certainly get my juices flowing

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Isn't Wise a 'hoofball' manager?

 

[WeWillBeBack]

Let's get behind him at the game tonight! At the moment the 3 front runners seem to be Blackwell, ince and wise.. I know who I'd want out of those.

None of this 'richard shaws sky blue army' shit please

Dennis Wise...Left a managers position at a big club to be a glorified scout at Newcastle.

Obviously was struggling to keep the bread on the table for his family so had to get a higher paid job... What a man!

As long as whoever we appoint is a winning manager who cares what playing style he adopts?

Best football is winning football, I know, also, when you lose, people won't get on your back as quick if you lose playing good football.

But, we don't have the XI nor squad to play hoofball, as AB found out.

If we really want to look at the ex-player route then I would much prefer Liam Daish who has done a cracking job at Gravesend/Ebbsfleet including an FA trophy win and a couple of promotions.

To much of a risk, give a few years, maybe (if he is managing in the FL)

 

[Glaziers green top]

Wise excites me because his no non sense approach and experience is EXACTLY what this club needs. Added to which he has excellent contacts, knows the club, loved by a large section of the fan base and would do a far better job than some one like Blackwell or Ince. It really is a no brainier. SISU would do them selves a huge favour by appointing Wise there really is no other option. Over to you SISU the time has come to make the change that will drive this club forward to a more prosperous and altogether better future. Dennis Wise Sky Blue Army!!

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

I think Greg Abbott would be just as or even better than appointing Wise, and he'd guaranteed take the job.

Don't get me wrong, if it was out of Wise, Ince and Blackwell, it's a no-brainer, Blackwell! I kid, Wise!

 

[Covstu]

Wise is clearly the fans favourite and i think he is a very capable manager as well as being well known. We need someone who can gee the team up and not be afriad of pissing people off if they are not performing. This appointment will bring another 2K back on the attendance at least also help us attract better players.

Lets hope the 'Dennis Wise Sky Blue Army' chants start tonight to let SISU know who we want!!

Just because he is the fans favourite, doesn't mean he's the right option.

 

[Glaziers green top]

Totally agree never have we had a better time to rebuild this club than now. Appoint Wise and attendance figure will defiantly rise. He is already a fans favourite and would be given time to get it right. The team needs a rocket up it's "arris" dam sharpish. Wise would bring this along with an instant increase in attendances.

But will that only be short-term?

 

[MusicDating]

Wise now backed in to 10/3 with SkyBet. Cmon, we can win this...

7 years there, now a full time squad and now only two divisions below us

 

[sky blue bantum]

It's Dennis Wise all the way for me, but if it is and he's successful I hope he will be here for the long haul and not just use the club as a stepping stone to bigger things.
Remember he left Swindon Town when they were 2nd top for a job at Newcastle Utd as director of football. We desperately need some stability at the club, not just a short term thing again.

Whatever happens, i hope it's not Blackwell or Megson !

 

[Vedere]

Wise is smart and articulate. As a relatively young (and inexperienced) manager I'm sure he's still learning but Coventry need someone progressive, forward thinking and someone to rejuvenate the whole club.

Earlier this month Wise resigned from his position at CPO ( Chelsea).

Hmm...

 

[matesx]

it HAS to be Dennis Wise

surely

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

I mean give him a couple of years to get in FL, not at his club.

 

[Sick Boy]

I still can't believe I got 14-1 this morning!

 

[skyblue1523]

I hope you win your bet sick boy

 

[Marty]

I'd love to have Wise here, natural born winner, something we lack so badly. Just look at the influence he had last time he was here, I think he could do it again.

 

[torchomatic]

Why would i "keep up" on someone who has nothing to do with Coventry City and who has been out of football for four years?

I'm sure you didn't look on Wiki to see what he was up to , just like i didn't.

He left Newcastle ages ago, keep up.

 

[Ccfc1979]

He's now the favourite on Sky Bet and Stan James above Shaw and Blackwell now. 5/2 at SJ!
