New manager?

[blades1889]

If true and Blackwell have gone...

who would you like to see as the next manager at the lane?

personally i don't want to Gary Speed in charge because the only managerial experience he have had is with Blackwell.

 

[Nick Jansky]

It will be Speed. The cheap option, knows the club & the players.

 

[Worksop II]

knows the club

They were the exact words McCabe used when appointing Blackwell

 

[j j]

Alex Sabella knows the club

 

[blades1889]

cheap as chips replaced by cheaper then chips....

Not saying I would support Speed's appointment, but you just know its gonna happen. How good has KM been at picking managers in the past?

 

[Come from away]

"Speed will be the acting manager while a search goes forward" - would make more sense then a knee-jerk appointment.

He'll have probably been getting invaluable advice from Allardyce, Sammy Lee and Gary Megson in his later years at Bolton.

Oh....

Alex Sabella knows the club

No he doesn't. He knew it as it was 30 years ago.

However, if what certain people have been told is true, it's less knee-jerk than you'd think

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

Speed as manager would be a sideways move. Clear the lot out. Speed doesn't look to have had much influence on the team so far. Speed for me can retire and be a tv pundit.

 

[blades1889]

totally agree

Hear hear, well said

I wonder which manager you'll be hating in 3 months time?

Been confirmed that cheep as chips have gone, and that united expectations are still high.

Hopefully there is a plan Foxy, and I will hold you to that

 

[Linz]

I just hope whoever it is, the decision is made for the right reasons rather than just convenient ones.

Good one, from one who was clearly deranged and totally unhinged towards the end of the Robson era ........

 

[Liffonmelsmork]

Speed wanted to leave the club only recently, would be a bit awkward having him officially take the helm all of a sudden. He's destined to be a manager but I don't think now's the time.

 

[Come from away]

Phil Brown is the guy - according to latest pundit

I hope not. Can't stand him.

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Repeating myself but I hope not due to:

1] If he had no influence over team selection and tactics and put up with the last 18 months of shit then he is not management material.
2] If has had influence over the team then he is not management material.

With ether scenario he is not management material.

True, but I generally wait for them to prove their incompetence before I get on their back. The mere sight of a blades badge is enough to fuel pupp's hatred...

Gus Poyet for me and for an unknown then Morten Wieghorst, who played for Celtic and is a very good trainer over here at FCN.

 

[davidpinder]

not sure it will be speed after the statement just read out on ssn

Why? What did the statement say? - I missed it.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Whoever it is, McCabe needs to get it exactly right. And his track record on that is not exactly sparkling.

 

[Foxy]

I think we should sack the new manager. NEW MAN OUT!

It's on the OS now.
