Right who's the next manager then? (6 Viewers)

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Think he’s got the U21s if he wants it. Don’t think it’ll be as cheap as you would think due to the salary and I would assume coaches salaries

You're probably right but whoever Doug King brings in the new managers is gonna want to bring his own staff in so it's going to cost Doug King some money

If only we didn’t sack our most successful manager of recent history. Think of the money Doug could of saved then

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

The majority of our fans wanted Andy Thorn as manager back in the day Charles as he gave a cheery wave every game

You've proved my point nicely Grenners. Vast majority of owners/chairman/board have same knowledge as fans (very few exceptions).

At least the food would improve at the CBS

And expensive have you ever been to one of Ramsay's restaurants.

 

[Tommo1993]

Lampard gone to 5/6 odds. I have this nagging feeling since yesterday that it’ll be him.

I don’t worry about the cost I’m from Hinckley

 

[alexccfc99]

Lampard’s odds have massively shortened this evening

Tbh out of all the names mentioned I’m leaning to taking a punt on him

 

[SkyBlueCharlie9]

Where has Alan Sheehan come from? Swansea City assistant coach - joint favourite by looks of it.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Lampard gone to 5/6 odds. I have this nagging feeling since yesterday that it’ll be him.

I'm the same, I have a very strong feeling it's Lampard

And he will be announced Monday before the forum so Doug has something new and shiny to point towards

Lampard's next job and where Harry Redknapp would hate to see Frank go

EXCLUSIVE: Harry Redknapp has revealed his hopes for nephew Frank Lampard in terms of what the future holds for his career in management following tough spells with Chelsea and Everton

It'll go the way of Peter Reid.

 

[FergieTheFinisher]

Hasn’t Potter been “resting” since the Chelsea gig? Wouldnt It be nice if he felt burned by his time at Chelsea and is longing for the chance to build a midlands team to get back to the Prem……. Ahhh day dreams

 

[procdoc]

Lampard now odds-on favourite. This is one of my nightmares coming true

 

[Tommo1993]

Although with DK’s great lack of football knowledge, he probably will go with a reputation like Allardyce. I’m ruling out nothing.

I’d take a Lampard over a Sheehan or a Bloomfield tbh

 

[Ccfcisparks]

If it is lampard I really have no words

 

[gspotgaz]

Lampard

 

[Williescar]

Definitely

 

[False9]

If it is lampard I really have no words

It would be the Peter Reid moment

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Was reading Swanseas forum and they’re really complementary about Alan Sheehan

 

[Tommo1993]

Think we could do worse. And better. Fuck knows.

As a number two

Rightly or wrongly, I just don’t see him or a Bloomfield who have spent the majority of their careers in L1 and L2 commanding the respect of a multi million pound assembled squad with some international footballers in it

That is probably a damning indictment of the attitude of a modern day footballer but it’s just the way it is and I just can’t see it working

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

He is stopping at Coombe abbey tonight.

 

[clint van damme]

Please not Lampard.
Don't let us be the club where he finally brings his briefcase into the dugout.

Performance Director interview in the CET

“In the last couple of months we have been trying to maximise the performance opportunities we have in the pre-season, so a lot of the arrangements for pre-season matches have fallen to me because we are looking to utilise that time in the most intelligent way to prepare us in the best possible way for the new season.”

That worked well, didn’t it. Pre season certainly flattered to deceive.

Didn’t we have to cancel one game cos she’d organised it the Wednesday before the season starts?

 

[LastGarrison]

Not a single part of me thinks Lampard would be a good choice.

My only slight hope would be that if he did get the gig then King must have promised him a few quid to spend.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Lampard isn’t my first choice but 2bh he did a good job at Derby and he managed Chelsea through their transfer embargo. Brought through Mount and Reece James - I think Conor Gallagher come through him.

Everton are a basket case and he kept them up there.

reputation wise - he’d command the respect of the players instantly.

He was caretaker manager after Duff, one of their commenters stated he saved their season

As you’ve said - would they command the respect though

 

[covcity4life]

Frank lampard. One of the biggest names in English football.

We're in the big time now baby!

Superrrrr super frank supporter super frank superrrrr super frank super Franky lampard!

If he's stipulating he's got to work with the IT Crowd I doubt he's going to give cash to spend.

I do think a young squad as ours would look up to and respect his pedigree as a former world class player.

 

[alexccfc99]

Perhaps I’m just going off the fact I liked him as a player and I think he comes across as a very intelligent and articulate bloke but I’m willing to give him cautious benefit of the doubt if he gets it

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

I do think a young squad as ours would look up to and respect his pedigree as a former world class player.

He’d probably still get into our central midfield to be honest

 

[covcity4life]

I doubt lampard would come in if he felt like it was a dodgy structure. He's still a big name that doesn't have to eat shit

I said that about the dosh earlier - I wouldn’t be totally against him to be fair
