Right who's the next manager then? (52 Viewers)

[StrettoBoy]

Mark Robins has recently become available.

I guess he would want to manage a much better club than us though.

England interim boss Lee Carsley responds to question over links with new job

Lee Carsley refused to comment on the prospect of him taking charge of Coventry City. Carsley is currently working as interim England manager having taken the job following Gareth Southgate’s…

I think there’s something in this. Robins sacked before heading into international break.

Carsley last couple of games as interim England manager in the international break.

Carsley very good coach and managed England U21s. We have a young squad. Ex captain and player for us.

Coaches at Strachan academy in Coventry.

I wouldn’t mind him in.

I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you, but I don’t see how ex player & captain has any relevance at all

it’s not my main point but has a link to the club. More an observation

fair enough. I haven’t got any idea who I’d go for, I’ll support them all the way but it’s all still a bit too raw to think about just now

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Im a glass half full kind of guy - at least Troy Deeney and Joey Barton aren’t on the list. If they were I’d let you push me off the edge.

Think out of the options he’s the best pick out the bunch.

Plays attractive football. Won a couple of trophies with younger lads and has that experience of how to manage them.

Seems to be a big personality from his playing days and has local links to the area.

Think we could do worse (looking at you Ryan low)

 

[Domo]

Heard that Rob Markins is now available

England manager about to become cov manager?

Surreal

Club management is a totally different beast though and there’s no pressure at all in managing the U21s. We would again need someone to learn on the job when we don’t have time for that.

 

[shmmeee]

Tbh the reply sounds more like a denial.

 

[Offhegoes]

Tbh the reply sounds more like a denial.

It sounds like a pre-rehearsed answer. as he has one more U21 fixture to fulfil before taking over at Cov

That’s fair. Just seems the best out of the few on the high betting odds. If it was up to me Ruben Selles might be my pick

Oggy works at Strachan too.
He'd be in the know if Carsley was coming in.
Doesn't sound like it by his comments today.

@robbiekeane Brace yourself m8

let’s fucking do this

 

[rob9872]

What price Doug being the new manager? Possibly even player-manager.

 

[Paxman II]

I have not heard a single name that even comes close to licking Mark Robin's boots. You don't sack a real gem with credit in the bank and not replace him with someone better. So who could we get that is better than Robin's? Would you have any of those names mentioned over Mark Robins? If King is to get the fans instantly back on side he better have something good up his sleeve......

Taken over from Robins before as our manager.

Declined the job on a longer period.

Has never coached a club other than youth level but was temporarily in charge with us (twice), Birmingham and Brentford.

 

[long way home]

This is a calculated move and therefore i think King knows exactly the type of hire he wants. I wouldn't be shocked if its a name not been mentioned on bookies list or on the forum. I can see a young coach with European knowledge or background who is more of a tactician than a motivator.

Whoever it is needs to make an instant impact because fans need to know we are going in the right direction. Robins is a really hard act to follow and in truth could be an impossible one, its going to be a brave kind to take this on.

 

[Quball]

Dougs probably sat flicking through the football manager staff database.

 

[harvey098]

In my opinion there are 2 options of what’s happened.

1. The successor is already lined up. Carsley would make sense as to why that hasn’t been immediately announced yet to let him focus on these last England matches.

2. If we don’t have anyone already lined up then there must’ve been a major relationship break down between them that blew up even more after Derby. Probably started from missing out on targets over the past few months.

The idea he’d just sack him without even knowing who would want to come to us is majorly irresponsible and strikes me more of an emotive decision after an argument rather than purely on the pitch (even acknowledging how turgid the Derby performance was).

 

[HJones23]

If it’s not a so called big name, Carsley makes sense given the doubling down on the new structure. I think who we appoint will be a big indication on what DK is willing to invest in the upcoming transfer windows. I can’t see Carsley, Lampard etc agreeing to join if they haven’t been promised serious backing which worries me if it fails we could be in the shite once again

Reckon the Jamaican lads first thought he was M Dot R's dad

Is that big Sammio Allardycio's nephew?

 

[Sky Blue Wozza]

Interestingly, I’ve just found out that Robbie Keane is a cousin of Morrissey.

 

[Sick Boy]

I cannot believe Bloomfield is odds on. If that happens King will have lost me.

It's only because that's where the money has gone following the reports in the press.

 

[WestEndAgro]

Ruud Van Nistelrooy, give him his first role, unfinished business.

 

[clint van damme]

What difference does it make?

 

[Ashdown]

I don’t even like the term head coach. The thought of some yes man coming in as an addition to that gaggle of clipboard carrying, tablet toting, stopwatch swinging bunch of no marks is quite nauseating.

 

[Briles]

I spose the added bonus with Carsley is his connections to the Youth set ups. Although DK appears averse to Loans.

 

[Jamesimus]

What difference does it make?

Very good!
