I think for his comment that "maybe a few from the youth team can make the step up" read 'a lot from the youth team will be playing cos we're buying no fooker'.

But as clearly stated, it's all guess work and he might prove me completely wrong. His dad did it before when sacking Nick and recruiting Bruce.

Good spot and it certainly can read like that.

I'm just basing my views on their past behaviour - anything is possible with them.
 
It's no job for him. The new manager has to completely rebuild a squad and needs all the knowledge of that division possible. It wouldn't excite them and they'll think I'm talking bollocks but I honestly think Warnock would be the best man for the job, or even a return for Mad Mick.

Exactly. He strikes me as the weak and wobbly type too.

Best man for the job is an old campaigner: someone with values and integrity; someone who's not afraid of the fight or the debate.

Some of those lads looked our best players in the last few games. I'd have no issue in giving Bowen, Lenihan (when fit) and Tymon (if we can keep him) the opportunity to play.

Two Wigan fans I know said Weir was one of a few bright lights for them - maybe he can step up too.

If it means more of our budget (whatever it is) can be spent on goal scorers - happy days.

Easy when its end of season and we've nothing to play for. February away at Millwall is a whole different kettle of fish.
 
Apologies for not reading the last few pages BUT please remember Ehaw said he did not want to continue down the 'recycled premier league manager' route. It therefore will not be anyone who has previously managed in the top division. That must narrow it down somewhat. I don't think anyone has mentioned an Egyptian :emoticon-0136-giggl
Why would they.
 
No matter what names have been thrown around, it seems no one has any idea at all who we might call on. Tom, Dick and Harry are all 6 joint favourites.. I fancy 'rabbit from the hat' at 33/1...
