I’m sorry in a daft sort of way, that Bruce had to be sacked, he should have done the honorable thing and offered his resignation weeks ago. But agree he had to go!

Who should manage this club, my club, our club? I don’t know. All I know is that I want someone who can lift the gloom, get results, make me proud.

Of the three managers that seem to be (most) peoples favorites for the job
Mark Hughes
David Moyes
Martin O’Neill
The first two have managed clubs with low budgets (city excepted for Hughes), and have done so quite well without setting the world alight. Martin O’Neill has on paper had the most success, and bought some decent players, but has had a fair amount of money.

Each one will have his good points and bad. I just don’t know enough about any of them, except Cest’s well documented love affair with MON, to decide.

I’m just pleased it’s not my decision to make.

Could have put this on an existing thread, but wanted to give you guys a chance to put reasons why you want or don’t want a particular manager. Cest, I’ll take your reasons as read, and very good reading they were.
 
TBH I would be happy with any of them, dont think Moyes is in the running so its one from two.

I prefer Hughes but cant say why, just gut feeling so if its O'Neil I wont be sad. Just want it done quickly
 
I think overall Mon would have a bigger impact than Hughes because he seems to have more character and can be a bit more contraversial.

This: MON has an enthusiasm about him that Hughes lacks, but as Syd has already said, the sooner the manager is in place the better, whoever he may be.
 
MON is the outstanding candidate imo he has a proven track record at clubs like ours. Id take him ahead of Hiddink, Ancellotti, Rafa or any of others mentioned
