    On the basis that Moyes and Potter have said no, who would you choose for next up on the chopping block.

    Haven’t watched enough of any of their teams to form an opinion.

    But we need someone that will at least do the basics and make us more solid. We should have gone for Dyche before he went to Everton or Moyes as soon as he left WHU.

    So I guess whoever is the most likelier to stop us conceding hundreds of goals a season. Robins?

    Moyes for me. But if he's said no, I voted for Robbins.

    Maximum of 10 choices in a poll. You could swap Rafa for one of the others?

    Corberan if he wants the job, comfortably the best manager in the Championship for me and I think he’d get us promoted at the first attempt

    If, as I suspect, he wouldn’t take the job at this point in time then a caretaker type til the end of the season and re-assess in the summer

    Has to be lallana for me. Low risk option. He wants to coach, give him until the end of the season to see if he can get acdecent game plan going, restore some semblance of confidence. If he does hand him a contrct foe next season, if it does not work, get a promo expert in from the Championship ship

    Pretty much this. I don't know these managers well enough to pick but I want someone who can organise a defence. Not necessarily a defensive manager but someone who's shown they can make a team defensively sound. We've had quite a few of the same players in our defence for a while now (KWP, Stephens, Bednarek) and we've consistently conceded a lot of goals. I want to know for certain whether that's been because of the players or the managers.

    While we're at it, if we're spending money in January I'd like character and mental strength to play a big part in any recruitment.

    Lallana/Calderwood as long term caretaker for me. No need to rush into making an expensive appointment when the (league) season is already over.

    May as well take our time with it over the next few months do some proper diligence with the aim of bringing someone in towards end of season.

    I just worry this approach would see a lot of the squad think that we have zero ambition and would push to leave.

    Get a decent, respectable guy in now, and start improving performances and morale, and we'll be ready to hit the ground running next August.
