    I think the appointment needs to pull everyone together, be it players, staff and fans. Someone the whole club can get behind

    Nothing comes into it other than the fact he has never managed higher than league two

    would be terrible

    Whether we like it or not, we have to trust them to get it right. Think I preferred the days without the internet when the only time you heard about who was getting the managers job was when we saw it in the paper!

    Certainly a lot less bile ...

    ... no one really likes bile, not even those spewing it if truth be told.

    It’s an awful argument, a certain few on RTG blamed last season on “happy clappers” and the current situation.

    I’m in the middle, I criticise the club when warranted but I don’t go overboard like a few.

    End of the day we all want SAFC to do well,

    Rob Edwards had 2 championship games as Wolves interim, finished 1st in League 2 (like Challinor) with FGR, got the Watford job and was undeservingly sacked then took Luton up both within his first full season as a championship manager.

    The jump is irrelevant, it's all about the fit.

    He’s stuck to that story for a while tbf.

    If Will wants to go there, so be it. Best of luck to him. We move on.

    Haway Pascal!

    I think it's right to debate it, just in case he's right, but without losing one's **** in the process. The list seems so alarmingly disparate that you have to question it's authenticity because choosing between Jansen and Challinor means you are considering 2 wholly different coaches with different tactics and approaches which makes no sense to me at all.

    True, but you know there will be a day when he's right and knowing our luck it will be with this...

    Looking like he's chosen Lens. If so, hopefully put to bed & they confirm it soon.

    Hope we've got someone sorted & ready to be announced. Also hope the sticking point with every candidate isn't that they can't bring their own team & must work with Dodds & Proctor.

    I suspect if we go for Jansen, he'll be working with Dodds as his assistant.

    Jansen's assistant is now the head coach at AZ, so unless he's got other people he wants to work with, he might be stuck with the dildo twins

    Aye this is true. There’s a couple of personalities I’m not keen on but I’d cheer if we won games, equally there are a couple of surprises in the list and not in the list but if they join and achieve I’m not bothered who it is. The judge is how they do. I think the fans need to start backing coaches and stop being hard work.
