    I would like to see James get a coaching role first. (who knows maybe Assistant Manager??)
    He's a bright guy, but IMO would be a massive gamble.

    I agree, should get an assistant managers role first. Get his badges, then who knows.

    Would he be more of a gamble than McInnes?
    Advantage for James is that he knows the players, knows the set-up, knows English football, knows the Championship..
    IMO, both a massive gamble..

    Dino Zoff was a good manager!!!!!!!
