Come in on the betting at evens on stan James!

Sky Blue Pete · Feb 28, 2013

Interesting good manager no doubt about that

ccfctommy · Feb 28, 2013

I'll be happy with that.

covcity4life · Feb 28, 2013

ccfcdale · Feb 28, 2013

He'll only cost a Coppell of grand a week I reckon

JulianDarbyFTW · Feb 28, 2013

As much as I like Steve Coppell he has a bit of a reputation for walking out. How long did he last at Man City? A few days. Bristol City? A few weeks. It'd be a risk, as we could find ourselves looking again very soon.

I echo that. If we are truly after long term stability in a manager... He's not the man.

HaHa Very good...

ccfcdale · Feb 28, 2013

Surely though it would be a gamle worth taking even if its for the remainder of the season...

ricohman · Feb 28, 2013

How long has he been out of managing, 4 or 5 yrs maybe?

I could be wrong

ccfcdale · Feb 28, 2013

Anyone know why it says Junior Sky blue on my profile? Its annoying.....

Because in the coaching teams opinion your not quite ready for the first team yet....

CovLis86 · Feb 28, 2013

I'd bite his hands off. He would be a great appointment and a real statement. But if he's looking to get back into management, swindon must seem a more enticing prospect, and with more money no doubt.

Please tell me this is not for real? Or is it..

scroobiustom · Feb 28, 2013

Coppell is extremely volatile and is prone to erupt at anything he considers involvement in his team - most recent David James at Bristol City

That considered Swindon would be a very short stint, but how would our board deal with no on field matters? is that Ken's legacy after all...

Its the number of posts you have made, simple as that

TrueSkyBlueLiam · Feb 28, 2013

I dont think he would come here. He's been out fo work for years, and after a long break, you wouldnt want to face the biggest challenge of your career. Top class manager, would love him here, but its not likely

Okay cool, proper rookie on here then

play_in_skyblue_stripes · Feb 28, 2013

Perfect short term appointment to give us every chance of getting promoted.

TrueSkyBlueLiam · Feb 28, 2013

Also he is Director of Football a Crawley Town, so we might have to pay compo, which we wouldnt be able to do, cus the clubs accounts are frozen and SISU wont part with their own cash when they can bring someone like Curle or Brown in for free

Chipfat · Feb 28, 2013

Sousa is someone that may do a decent job and seems to be sticking around the betting, im pretty sure whoever comes in the club will insist Carsley stick around in some capacity and rightly so.

mattylad · Feb 28, 2013

Steve Coppell, lovely bloke, good manager, scouser and would get on with Baker as captain but (and its a big one) does not do pressure well. Tends to stress out totally and then either errupt in the press or just walks away.

That said if he comes in he will fit the ethos of the way the fans like the team to play and would I believe be warmly greeted. Maybe an 18 month appointment and let him work with Carsley as his number 2

deanocity3 · Feb 28, 2013

Steve Coppell had players like Coleman,Thorn,Shaw,Salako,Pardew,Wright,Southgate,Pemberton when he was palace boss.
not a bad set of players.

Ashdown1 · Feb 28, 2013

Swindon or Coventry..............the guy must be rubbing his hands together with glee !!

cyril · Feb 28, 2013

He'd be good with the young lads

Ashdown1 · Feb 28, 2013

Is he a catholic priest as well??

SkyBlue_Bear83 · Feb 28, 2013

He has lost his desire and hunger for the game, no thanks. He'd be the equivalent of signing a veteran player looking for one last pay day imo

torchomatic · Feb 28, 2013

Another quitter. No thanks.

CovKingChris · Feb 28, 2013

I'm sure he retired from managing? Isn't that why he left Bristol City?

Glaziers green top · Feb 28, 2013

No thanks.. usually does one when things arent going well.. hes a bit old school and hardly set the world on fire in his last appointments.. always found him very droll and boring... not sure he's the inspiration we are looking for..

sw88 · Feb 28, 2013

Seems quite happy in his role as a director of football so doubt he'd be returning to management anytime soon

grego_gee · Feb 28, 2013

Steve Coppell does seem to be uniquely qualified for the job!
Apparently he has a degree in. ?....

Economic history!

Couldn't be more appropriate!

Colonel Mustard · Feb 28, 2013

Of the same opinion as most here - excellent manager, but a fickle one. Potentially a dreadful match with a club as rocky as ours.

cov17 · Feb 28, 2013

just looked on the stan james site hes not even in the betting:jerkit:
