    THATS 14 NAMES ...... who might City be considering@ a younger manager from the lower leagues that has shown resilence with even more limited resources than City?

    I believe Edwards’ agent approached city when it became common knowledge that Manning was leaving, but before the official announcement was made.

    I think Rob Edwards did a brilliant job with Luton when you consider that they played before almost non-existent crowds in what could be dubbed one of the worst football stadiums in the country. Running a club with those kind of criteria is never easy and you can expect a fall from grace quite quickly and now they face life in League One. I can't honestly see that any of Luton's troubles can be pinned on Rob and I see him as a competent manager who would do well for Bristol City but only if he is taken seriously and not pushed around by Junior or Tinnion. Trust your manager to do the job and if you should hire a winner then give them your full support and backing, because the supporters will.

    Aside from our stadium, I'm not sure we're much of a better bet than Portsmouth for him ?

    Possibly not.
    Just a hunch but think he's worth pursuing.

    Don't get me wrong I think he's a rising star, but I would have thought he'd have his eyes on a bigger club than ours

    You’re not alone on this one.

    If Danny Rohl never had that 5 million release clause it would have been him for me.

    plenty of good options out there,i only hope we dont pee about for a month, then go for the cheap option and give us a load of bs about him being one for the future.
    i would love to be a fly on the wall in the boardroom or wherever the clan gathers nowadays just to hear how they come to a decision,
    i can just hear tinnion and little lansdown jnr squeaking about some wonderkid theyve heard about on line somewhere,

    No idea where you are getting your odds from but you’ve missed out Richie Wellens for a start.

    various bookies have different outlooks have been researching the odds in past 30 minutes and now published them as an addition the Previous one yesterday. BOOKIES LIKE TO KEEP THE TABS ON OTHER BOOKIES as they dont wish to get sold short most on the day had jus O'Neil as a clear favourite today list added to and odds shortened or adjusted... will likely change daily

    look out for managers like MICHAEL SKUBALA Gary Caldwell Mike Dodds................ being added to list all to attract punters! ...............

    I’m guessing JGF has banged his pension on Strubber. I remember him always liking him.

    dont think so? but looked him up ............

    Gerhard Struber said: “Over the course of the season, a marathon is often spoken about that we are running together. How difficult this race is can be seen in the current table. Now, having the finish line in front of our eyes and still being in a good position, the decision is one that hurts. I wish the team and the entire club all the best for the remaining matches.”
    Werner Wolf thanked Christian Keller and Gerhard Struber for their efforts: “Christian Keller led the club through difficult times in the past three years and played a huge role in the structural and financial strengthening of FC. Gerhard Struber, since arriving in July 2024, has shown great engagement in bringing the team on course and are in the running for promotion. Both deserve our thanks for that.”

    H
    ARD TO BELIEVE he was sacked when so close to promotion, just a couple/ few games [ ? ] to go! KOLN WON THE DIV 2 TITLE ..... with just 3 games? to go a bit vicious!!!! They were top!!!!!!!!!!!
