    We're a poisoned chalice, and we won't have a manager in 3 weeks.

    I think its time to organise a mass fan protest.

    The bigger question is who’s willing to manage us under the quiet frankly * ambitions of the board.

    Our level of manager is low. A guy who will come in and be happy to come in and rebuild a squad in a month or so. Be happy to just to smile while the board * him. Let's be honest if this was the hun I would be ripping in to them * left right and centre.

    We’ve paid a manager 3 mill a year before so we know that’s capable and with that many managers would become realistic. However going by today’s events it looks like * Campbell is the best we could hire

    I'd rather have an appointment at the AIDS clinic than our manager being any one of the jellyfish mentioned or suggested.

    For the avoidance of doubt.....I really really really really really mean that. I'll happily take one for the team.

    Keane would be a nightmare to be honest, too volatile a character but saying that, maybe thats what our pansy players need

    Sam Allardyce? Putting aside the matter of him being a dodgy chancer.

    * right off. We do not want Sam Allerdyce. He has no place here and should have been * right off after that meeting of how to * round the rules on things corrupt *. He's only ever been the anti relegation * never a winner

    If we were serious someone like Lucien Favre is not beyond the realms of possibility. Him with a young coach as assistant with a view to taking over in a couple of years if they are competent, would be ideal from my perspective.

    But it appears Desmond is pulling the plug on spending in a big way, so that is, unfortunately, unlikely.

    I have resigned myself to it being Clarke after the Euros if it's not Ange.

    Frankly - if it came down to those two, I'd take Clarke after the Euros - next season is a * write off anyway.

    Someone who has Uefa qualifications.
    Won't have to quarantine for 10 days on starting.
    Gets rid of JK and GS.
    Prioritises fitness, analysis and tactical set up.
    Works to intergrate a pathway from Youths, colts in to first team.


    For me, that's just standard. And a vision for the the next decade and beyond.

    Someone who has UEFA qualifications... they’re just a piece of paper easy enough for majority of managers to get.

    Quarantine means you rule out a lot of managers across the whole world. So you’d rather a British manager I guess or someone already managing in the UK?

    The rest actually could be Ange but I’m not saying it needs to or should be him. The more I’ve researched the more positive I am about it though.

    Seems to play a great brand of attacking football so we’d never be bored. Doesn’t take * and love to promote youth. Is very into modern football and training etc.

    He could be great but if not him I would like a manager who is like that. He ticks many boxes for me apart from being unknown.

    To be fair, he might be a DD yes man!

    Already told him to * off before :56:

    Keane’s as far away from a yes man as you can get. He’s an awkward contrarion *. You need to work out how to get him to agree with you just so he can’t say no to be a * :56:

    Steve cooper, Swansea manager with a year left on his contract. Would prefer him to Ange in all honesty.
