if bruce did go.

I want to throw Alex McCleish's name into the ring. Built a good team, won a trophy, plays good football. He's had very little to spend compartively.

 

Ditto

 

this well said

 

Goodbye bruce,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,taxi money waiting, in my back pocket

 

if we win the last two and finish 8-9th you still wouldn't change your view.

love yours, rog's and 73 stance on this, maybe we don't agree but good to see lads stick to their guns...

cos we all know best..

 

I quite like McLeish. He would be the more obvious choice given the strict parameters of the question. I still like Mick M and wouldn't complain if he came back at some point. There may be a feeling of unfinished business at SAFC for him although the low point seasons are on record regardless of circumstances, so I don't think it's likely. Quinn could have brought Mick in as I think he was out of a job when Keane took over IIRC.

The guy I like as a manager got a raw deal in his last job is Di Matteo. He looks as if he may take over at Sheffield Utd. Watch them come straight back up and be a force for promotion again next season. Could be the right club at the right time for someone like him. Good judge of a player and has his team playing football. Hodgson has been getting a lot of credit for their so called resurgence but it's with RDM's men. They weren't in the bottom three when he was sacked either; a fact which a lot of people forget. I think Hodgson is a stuffy old ****er, who is up his own arse. He was a disaster when he was at Blackburn and had a canny season at Fulham. I think he's a tosser and not the canny avuncular figure that some people see.

 

I like Balds suggestion of Di Matteo...like he says good judge of a player...and more important,the team would play good football.

 

100% agree, i've seen enough of what Di Matteo did at WBA to know he's the business. Why did they even sack him? They were only around 15th and 5 games without a win is hardly terrible.

 

Of the current batch? Moyes or Hughs

Of the slippers and pipe brigade? MON.

 

Talk about a travelling manager, didn't realise hodgson had been to so many, how long will he be at wba...
