    The rumours going back is Rowett left Millwall to come here.

    For me three stand out.

    John Eustace

    Grahame Potter

    Neil Warnock

    Eustace, definitely not, 5minute wonder at Brum doesn't fill me with confidence at all.
    Please God, not Scott Parker.

    I don't see anyone out there better than Nigel Pearson.

    Over to you JL, let's see how much more you can do to destroy BCFC.

    Please god, not Warnock.....

    I have seen Dean Smith's name banded about, not a bad option, did well in this division with Brentford and Villa.

    Unless they hit the ground running I think any new manager is going to have a tough time. I hope it doesn’t become toxic, I fear it will.

    That’s the thing, none of the managers mentioned are better than NP.

    Warnock will go to QPR.
    Potter would have better options than us.
    Gary Rowlett is definitely not a yes man.
    Eustace if I was go on teams we’ve played and seen on TV Brum was superb and I thought they were mad to get rid of.
    Nathan Jones is a big no no

    SC as favourite could be the bookies B&B choice ! [ a lot of gamblers see a good return from a fav being 3/1 + so put money on in case! ... ten have a meaningful bet on their choice!
    If no news by Tuesday night .............. LOOKOUT FOR FAV CHANGING ... MIGHT EVEN CHANGE TOMORROW!
    Did MUNOZ get a new club?

    Would add that if I was in charge it would be out of
    Schumacher, Lowe or someone I knew nothing about but mentioned on OTIB so looked him up Will Still from Reimes. But considering they were paying a £25k fine for him weekly until he gained his badges I can not see him being cheap.

    I like these 2 guys, but they are under contract, so a fee would be due. I think we need some fresh, young dynamism in the club now. Please god no more dinosaurs like Warnock, Bruce etc.

    Anyone who gets us higher than 15th is better!

    14 games into the season is nothing and not really relevant

    The style of our football currently that we're good at, I'm hoping will be taken to account, otherwise it will be another start from scratch scenario..

    We won’t know until the new manager is appointed. Above 15th he’s done better, below 15th, he’s done worse. It’s quite simple really.

    IF John "I dont really understand football" Lansdown had the court to himself and made the call then it is really spot on ! THE GAMES FROM 11 TO 23 ARE REALLY THE MOST IMPORTANT! they are the second qtr when teams have had time to settle down and the real end of season contenders are up there in the top 8 ...on points! usually top 2 and at least one of the PO's teams are there, = out, to level playing field / games played!

    there are 12 teams just 6 pts away from being in top 4th/ 5th/6th positions ... 4 have lost 3 of last 5 fixtures and 5 have lost 2! AND 6 have picked up 6 points or less [ City 6 pts ]
    A sign of how tight it all is ... this is deeper than 5 losses in 7 ... this sacking was personal!
