Roy Hobbs 2,297 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 23 minutes ago, RealWorldRich said: The next permanent appointment is the acid test for this board's ambition. Our rivals have a manager with the following CV: 15 years experience as a manager 698 games managed with a 51.7% win rate. 166 games as manager of Liverpool Championship promotion with Swansea 7 domestic trophies in Scotland inc 2x trebles & an unbeaten season FA Cup + Community Shield win with Leicester City I heard someone mention Duncan Ferguson this morning. Let that sink in. If this board don't go and get someone with a CV in the same calibre of our rivals, they are accepting 2nd place (or worse) for the foreseeable future. If they go out an get another rookie in the frame of Michael '22 games managed' Beale, or some roaster like Pedro Caixinha, the board need chased out of town.

Nope but am certainly not all in on someone who's only in the conversation because of what his mate done at them. If all we have left is to copy them turn the lights out. If he gets the job I'll be a 100% behind him but it's a huge gamble imo Jelavic191 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the only reason they were able to attract him. Correct - and even then they’ve only been able to get him when his career’s on the slide. If we could get someone with that level of EPL experience, it would only be after a couple of big failures, which would be a risk in itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see Lammers in his preferred position. Scott Wright can be paid off as far as I’m concerned. Rather see Lovelace than Dessers. And yes before you ask I am writing him off.

Stuff like this is why I don't think we should be so above looking at different leagues around the world like the J-League, A-League and MLS. Managing to bring such a high level of consistency to a team in a league that is so even and do it playing good football is extremely positive. There's numerous guys like this such a Graham Arnold (Australia manager), Brian Schmetzer (Seattle Sounders), Oscar Pareja (Orlando City) and Jim Curtin (Philadephia). They've all had this consistency over years in the A-League and MLS but have only done it in one league or with one club and not play as attractive football as Muscat.
