Well he's just left his post at Wolves...so obviously a candidate. Despite his dreadful spell last season, the man has a wealth of experience and I wouldn't be that upset if we gave him a chance. Seems like a man who has integrity and I like that.

But in real life you can't exit the game to replay it when you lose..
You can, we tried that all last season.
Still lost though.

As a manager he's got a wealth of experience in losing football games......I think there are 100 better qualified people that may be interested in the job and I'm sure some of them will have integrity too.
Just like Richard Shaw he may one day make a good manager but I think our current situation demands a character that isn't learning as he goes along. I don't think Terry Connor has won a league game as a manager so I personally don't think he's quite ready for the almost impossible job that awaits whoever takes us over.

I'm no good at Football Manager but i'm sure that i'd still do a better job than Terry 'Negativity Personified' Connor. If he gets the job we should pack it in.

Did he win a game at wolves last season? Win percentage of 0% be a great appointment

Since i was about 7 iv never had a trophyless season on fifa and iv won multiple cups and titles and world cups on FM over the years. Ideal candidate.
in all seriosness though, i had an idea that we should raffle off tickets and the prize is be the manager for a game..... think about it, it gets us money from sales of tickets, doesnt cost us in wages, and it could by fluke work and we win every game. problem solved

Don't think he did, and he looked like a rabbit in the headlights. You could almost see the beads of sweat trickling down his forehead, even before kick off.

Wolves' equivalent of Thorn-vastly out of his depth in management and shouldn't be touched with a bargepole.

I would be really happy with Mark Robins as our manager.
Did well at Rotherham and guided Barnsley to there highest finish in the championship, after coming back into that league.
Has got the lower league experience as well as in the championship.
No compensation needed as he is not with any club currently.

In order to be favourite there needs to be substantial bets being laid on him (usually as a result of somone having an inkling).... has anyone heard an inkling?

you will struggle to get a bet of more than £50 on this market, so small bets mean big changes

Thats true, no-one could lay a huge bet without raising insider suspicion. SISU couldn't bet £1m on their 40-1 chance for instance

Ah the days of signing players that had just played in a world cup.

You say that but i remember a few signings back in the day which were questionable! But he would have been a great addition if we had signed him!

I can't even begin to describe how gutted I would feel if Terry Connor was appointed our new manager. I'm sure he is a nice bloke and all that but his record at Wolves was abysmal (no wins in 13 games) - probably the worst record of any manager in the entire Football League last season. He showed absolutely nothing to suggest he is capable of being an effective manager. In his post-match interviews he always sounded as if he was in tears. I would rather have any of our living former managers (Peter Reid, Terry Butcher, Phil Neale and Don Howe included!) back at the club than Connor. I'd rather Tim Fisher appointed himself as manager - at least Fisher sounds dynamic and forthright when being interviewed. I think the only person I'd rather not have as manager is Ken Dulieu - he is that bad.
Please God, no not Terry Connor as our new manager, surely!

Not so certain you can speak on behalf of Richard Shaw to be honest.
He may well decide to continue, who knows.

I think he meant he'd give up if Shaw was appointed, like he would if Connor got the job Otis. :facepalm:
