    In fairness Beale should never have been appointed because he was a really poor manager of Glasgow rangers.

    I remember you saying that. Started off coaching in the amateur levels of the German pyramid I believe. Would be an interesting one.

    You said Speakman is assistant academy level and he was undeserving of the sporting director job despite him not being assistant since 2011 and the jump from academy manager to sporting director is normal and a pretty natural jump.

    You said Dodds is academy level despite him being around our first team for years now and Neil tried to take him to Stoke as assistant.

    You ignore the work Dodds has done both at Birmingham and here which both have been successful.

    You ignore the fact we were mid table in league one when Speakman came in.

    Ask questions but at least be logical.

    Very similar background to Röhl.

    Would love someone from the Red Bull set up as well just not sure who.

    No concrete info but I think Will Still is our choice Won’t come until end of season So I feel we will stick with Dodds and tough it out

    So we just need to find someone who has a much better win rate than 72% in their last job for it to be considered a good appointment.

    Easy ****ing peasy.

    I'd be pleased with a manager achieving a 72% win rate here.

    Yeah, I am pretty easily pleased like that.

    How did he do here?
    Woefully I think you'll find as predicted by nearly everyone except speakman and Beale.

    He was chased out the club before he had a chance to do anything.

    But you know that already.

    That was a very small but vocal minority of fans, 99% of fans couldn't give a toss where a manager comes from or what he looks like.

    He was chased because he wasn't up to the job. As expected by most. He wasn't given a hard time at the early games - you're rewriting history to defend an indefensible appointment.

    Pretty sure the chants at the match calling for his sacking three or four games in didn't help.

    The bloke who made that shocking appointment has to take some blame surely as well but appears not. So we meander on downwards.

    Would you consider Jesse Marsch? Did quite well at Salzburg but his record wasn't so good at Leipzig. And then there was Leeds. Spent plenty of time with Red Bull though.

    You're a strange bloke. KS has taken plenty of blame from us for MB appointment,why do you think otherwise?

    I personally would but only if he implements the RB style of play which he never did at Leeds. He really wouldn't be received well though. Loves the sound of his own voice and is VERY American:emoticon-0140-rofl:

    Suppose so - hopefully the owner takes the next appointment out of his hands.
