    Exactly the same here. Doesn’t come across cocky at all, humble if anything

    Heaven forbid we appoint someone who isn't a bit cocky ...

    ... we have a bunch of young players who need a manager like that.

    That's not even jobs for the lads, that's jobs for the lads' lads.

    The world has moved on. The club is looking forwards. No point dragging it backwards by hiring out of sentimentality to a guy who has been gone twenty years.

    I personally imagine you like this Smug when you were in France, effortlessly switching between French and mackem though

    He has been respected at every club he has worked for... I'd bring him home.

    Hang on....I've absolutely no idea whatsoever what your response is alluding to...

    Moved on?.....The Club looking forwards?.....Dragging it backwards?.....Sentimentality?......A guy who has been gone twenty years?

    Wtf are you presuming that I'm suggesting like?.....What the hell are going on about man?

    Disco....calm the **** down man!

    I'm talking about what he has done over his career with smaller clubs than ours. I'm talking about the respect he has gaind from his peers. I'm talking abpout his character. I'm talking about his knowledge and love of the game. I'm talking about his man management skills with lower teams. I'm talking about his personality. I'm talking about the respect he has gained so far throughout his career etc,

    I'm NOT suggesting that he manages our firt team tomorrow FFS !

    And therefore, look at our last 13 managers or caretaker managers since Chris Coleman in 2018 -

    Other than Mogga, have the rest pulled up many trees?

    Robbie Stockdale
    Jack Ross
    James Fowler
    Phil Parkinson
    Andrew Taylor
    Lee Johnson
    Mike Dodds
    Alex Neil
    Martin Canning
    Mogga
    Dodds
    Beal
    Dodds

    Ha'way son, are you telling me that Nigel Clough has NO CHANCE of offering some kind of positivity to our club in some capacity, even at youth level (at least) OR, has less respect and knowledge in the game to man-manage the kids, than those listed above?..........Really?

    Give your heed a wobble son...

    Wow !....ha ha ha...

    I love when someone who is coming across as anything but calm tells someone who seems entirely calm to 'calm the **** down!' :)

    Shocking list of managers there, only Alex Neil & Tony Mowbray did a good job when you think about it.

    100%......and when we finished 6th last year, we could have been promoted with a pretty avarage manager.

    Strange...

    I'm assuming once you'd eventually finished typing your essay you had actually calmed down.
