    Yeah reckon Heckinbottoms football would be a bit like the man himself, dull as ditchwater.

    I'll show my working out:

    Will Still
    Highly regarded, very young coach from abroad but is English, success in Belgium and France with smaller clubs. Also we've been tracking him for over 6 months, this feels like the ideal candidate to me.

    Paul Heckingbottom
    Former Sunderland player, has a very recent promotion from the Championship on his record, feels like a decent fit to me.

    Liam Rosenior
    Did well to get Hull back in contention but fell short, a young coach with some good ideas, not fully convinced if he has the CV to get us into the top-6.

    Pascal Jansen
    Did well at AZ over several seasons alternating between 4th and 5th behind the big boys Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord. Was unable to unseat any of them over the course of his tenure. Did his job at AZ to the letter but didn't exceed.

    Rene Maric
    Has a great youth coaching CV but remains untested as a coach in mens football. Hard to judge.

    Right! That it! I've had all that I can stands, I cant stands no more!

    If not one of you BASTARDS is gonna tell us that we have managed to hook anybody, ANYBODY, anytime soon, then I will not be able to control myself any longer and be forced to give myself the granddaddy of self inflicted wedgies!

    You've said that before. Apart from Crosby of course, which could be derived from Old Norse or from Gaelic.

    For all the Maric heads, is there not a tinge of concern over him being a youth coach mostly and not having a proper managers job yet? Just curious.

    The English are an amalgamation of peoples from North West Europe (Anglo, Saxon, Britons, Norse, Normans, Jutes etc) and Anglo is just a synonym for that.

    Crosby is Anglo.
