    So who do you reckon. Hypothetical atm obviously but if Moyes was shown the door who best for a temporary taking charge?

    Kevin Ball - Not for me. Had a brief go and wasn`t impressive. Pretty much in the wilderness now and the bairns seem to be doing better since he was moved on.

    Paul Bracewell - We might see him on the touchline at Bournemouth. Don`t think much of him either tbh. Sits there, miserable as sin, looks like a shipwrecked tramp wandered in. No input, no involvement, no enthusiasm. Nowt.

    Robbie Stockdale - Don`t know much about him. Seems to be getting some honourable mentions. Might he be a better option?

    Anybody else?

    Out of those currently at the club then its Robbie Stockdale for me by a country mile, just think he's young, enthusiastic and under Sam he seemed on the,same wave lengths as the players which doesn't appear to be the same under Mr Moyes.
    Its all hyperthetical of course as were going to win our next two games.:emoticon-0100-smile

    Of course we are.

    Interesting to see who gets the touchline at Bournemouth though. Hope it`s Stockdale. I`d like to see him in action. Bracewell and it`s substituting one miserable twat for another imo.

    Bracewell been there years does nowt. I would actually get Pearson in as he looks a nasty twat and the players deserve a lot of flak

    Di Canio Mk II? We know how that went. They all went crying to mummy Byrne. Obviously she`s gone so they`d have to go crying to mummy Bain instead.

    Oh aye. You are correct I forgot about that. Its just my only consolation would be if I thought our players were getting strips tore off them by the manager at the end of games. Moyes, well he can barely muster up the energy to speak.

    He may well be tearing into them but if he is, they`re not taking a blind bit of notice. Well, he did virtually tell them after two games they were championship fodder. Really motivational that was.

    Of those at the club Stockdale still seems the best option to me. Probably means Bracewell then.

    Stockdale. As futile as sacking Moyes will be.

    Stockdale. Highly rated as a coach and was heavily involved in the youth teams rise to prominence.

    Could he be manager material at senior level? Only one way to find out.

    based on the number of bad decisions made during his tenure,Ellis might even put himself up for the position!!!

    Bracewell as first team coach has to take a share of the blame..It is a long time since I have saw a team that look so much like strangers..
