Firstly Chazz,your pay bundle assumes he works the Oracle and keeps us up?So if he didn't he'd be looking at £100k(less tax etc £50k)?

So he'd take £50k to work for someone who he has no faith in,to inherit a squad of footballers(and I use that term loosely),who aren't fit for purpose at this level and to then risk a dirty big black Mark on a reasonable,thus far,C.V?
I admire your optimism,positivity and conjecture but in reality,Ican't off the top of my head,name one idiot who would seriously consider any offer put in front the them by a maverick such as Allam!!

Of course there is still time to turn this around. There are 10 games where the season can be saved. That is plenty of time for a decent manager to sort this out. I think there will be plenty of the old boys who will take this on. It’s a chance to put another positive on their careers. It won’t be the pressing risk game that Mc Cann talks. They will go back to basics and grind out games. There are winnable games left and they will know that. I can’t see Terry being in the building by the next game especially if the owners listened to the Burnsey interview. He is done and needs to step aside and let a more experienced head sort this out. Of the fence I come, Warnock.

Well our current ratio of 10 in the last 10 years and the decline in quality of recent applicants suggests to me that we have a fundamental problem at the Club.It's maybe not as ridiculous as you'd have yourself believe.

There'll always be a manager wanting to come and work at a club of our size, but it's a question of quality and experience. If we go and get another League 1 manager, we're in exactly the same situation as we are now. I think some are just panicking and looking at our situation now instead of going macro and considering how decent a club we are (bar the owners, who are a set of ****s).

For the record, I think McCann is a decent gaffer, he got us to within a point of the playoffs. Yeah, alright, we had two very good players, but they didn't score every game and as a unit we defended and attacked properly. Whatever is going on now has surfaced after Christmas, because that's when this weak play started.

I'd be sad to see him go, frankly I think sacrificing manager after manager is pointless. Fair enough we're on a bad run and he has to take the blame for it, I think he knows that. But given the injury crisis and the fact he couldn't bring in anybody above League 1 standard in the transfer window, I don't think it's fair to nail him to a cross just because we're hacked off with our league standing and performances. I'd like to see him given a full season with a fully fit squad, none of this injury bollocks. He needs to tell LD to stop targeting these injury prone players, or, if that's not it, have a look at the training regime and see where changes can be made to prevent such bad injuries from occurring.

It's very, very unlikely, but we could win 8 out of the last ten and finish comfortably mid table and then everybody will be praising him again.

Could the real problem be that in taking the club up to the giddy heights of Wembley and beyond away from its old roots of failure and underachievement the current owners of the club never had the intent or indeed the real type of financial commitment of carrying on the work the prior owners admitted they could no longer sustain hence the second hand cheap as chips cynicism?

If we do go down, expect to see him in the team next season, he's pretty good. Ditto Billy Chadwick. Both could do it at League 1 level easy.
 
Don't understand the negativity, with McCann's track record, and the players he's brought in, we can look forward to an entertaining and successful season in League 1.

You're right of course.

The Allams are presiding over an organisation which is reducing in quality on all fronts, and despite that there will always be someone willing to have a go. Remember years ago when John Bond (had been out of work for ages) said he would crawl to City to become manager. Any desperado or no hoper would if it meant getting back on the gravy train.

They can dress it up as a 'sustainable model' and whatever other crap daft lad comes out with, but if we stay up with or without McCann, the next problem looming large is this summer when contracts are up and a new squad has to be assembled for next season. Heaven help us.

Why would Adkins come? Err let’s see
He’s earning next to fuxk all at the moment. ten grand a game and a200 grand bonus for keeping us up? 300 grand compared to a few grand giving a few talks or scouting.
He’d take it as would plenty of others.

That money isn't on offer, and he clearly thinks his stock is higher by not being here. He won't be coming back barring a change of ownership and direction.

I agree with you about managers will come here, but if there was one manager I’d bet my last penny on not coming it’s Nige , if he didn’t fancy it before with Bowen and Grosicki , why the hell would he now ?

:emoticon-0164-cash::emoticon-0164-cash: He’s not getting paid is he
No job
No pressure really
Everyone thinks we’re down
Gets a big bonus if he keeps us up and a tidy sum if he doesn’t
