    hopefully we dont follow this managerial nightmare................. more than a manager every 6 month's!

    The Bluebirds have received more than 100 applications and whittled those down to a shortlist of around six, sources at the League One-bound club have told BBC Sport Wales.
    Cardiff had three different managers as they were relegated from the Championship this season and are now looking for a ninth boss in four years.
    whittled down to 6 but name just 4 + 2 ?????'s

    In true Bristol City fashion I would expect nothing to happen until the start of the season, at which time the lengthy recruitment process would begin and BT would be in temporary charge.
    After weeks of interviews and uncertainty, BT will then be appointed.

    Don’t know about anyone else but can’t say I’m overly bothered he’s going to be honest, just curious about who they replace him with.

    Bit of a shame Liam going, I quite liked him here. Decent coach and learning.
    Wow, can't imagine the shower we will get to replace. Probably back to square one like before, fighting for survival in the championship.

    if only landsdown and co showed half the passion the supporters and players did in last third off the season past, then perhaps we might start going somewhere,untill then we will be just a lower/mid table borefest,

    No appointment the club make would surprise me. Unless it's someone half decent with a proven track record.

    For me, cheaper option though he might be, Tinnion isn't the answer.

    We'll probably appoint a manager/coach who's been sacked elsewhere.
    Bloody merry-go-round.

    Unfortunately the real truth will really hurt and I think City's total lack of ambition over the years has been highlighted by yet another debacle at Ashton Gate. The total joke of the summer signings followed by the lack of interest in the January transfer window tole me we weren't interested in improving our lot any time soon. The supposed comments about our lack of ambition is still ringing in my ears and I just wanted to scream ;I told you so". When I saw the comments about the Bears and where they really sit in Lansdown's priority list I just about burst my sides because now the almost final nail in the mystery is known, possibly. My biggest concern is that now the jig is up why on earth would Tinnion be touted as the guru of manager searches when presumably his poor record speaks for itself? As far as appointing Tinman as interim manager is a joke and if they are even considering making him the new permanent boss then it will become a pantomime. I was looking forward to next season hoping we could improve on our good attempt last time out but here we go again about to drop into a minefield of questions with very few answers. What a dysfunctional lot they truly are and I'm sure that Liam could see the writing and lack of backing on the wall coming from on high. Sit back and don't worry as it all will come out in the wash. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Here’s a question for you. I saw something like this on OTIB.
    Barring hindsight, since Tinnion we’ve had I think 10 managers.
    How many have been bad choices apart from Holden which was a covid time manager.
    Ps forget the nepotism regarding LJ, seeing as he was at the time getting reviews so time to take away the fact he split the fans base. Who else was a bad choices by the club?

    LJ aside I don’t think any were deliberately bad choices
    That’s not saying there weren’t mistakes such as Coppell, Millen, Pembrryon and O’Driscoll but some were just stop gaps
