Two huge appointments now

[Swannyblade]

Seen a lot of names being touted for next manager already, but the bigger appointment could be the proposed Director of Football.
Do we think there's someone lurking in the wings already...Jan van Winckel?

If it’s van winkle talk to PurpleRain about how he feels he’s run beerschot this second half of the season.

He doesn't fill me with any confidence, but he seems to have the Prince's ear

I think it’d be a shocking decision but as you say football is about jobs for the boys half the time and he’s definitely one of the princes boys.

Hi Stegosaurus here,

Rumor is, Stuart Pearce and Sammy Lee have been seen pulling up at the Lane.

Shouldn’t you be more worried about Norwich pulling up at S6 tomorrow?

Pulling up weeds yeah

 

[McGrath]

We don't need a Director of Football.

We just need a good football manager.

 

[Striker]

We just need a good football manager.

We had one, what an absolute disaster.

Who has a Director of Football in the Champ FFS, it’s a nonsense.

Last season, Swansea, Brentford, Fulham, Nottingham Forest, Huddersfield, Leeds, QPR, Reading and West Brom

All of the top four.

 

[Rodley]

Get f*cked both of yer

 

[nopigfansintown]

Title says it all. One huge appointment becomes two. That's twice as hard for the hard of thinking. How many times have they got the one appointment right, anyone? What chance two?

 

[Rodley]

We had one, what an absolute disaster.

I think a good manager is the most important appointment.

 

[BangorBlade]

Do NOT want Lennon

The prince and his advisors haven't got a clue about championship football. They barely had a clue about football when they first took us over, look at some of the things Jim Phipps did and they put him in charge! The prince spent £2m on Brayford, more money on one player than Wilder did in league one.

He's completely out of his depth

 

[Notts Blade 123]

Eddie Howe is the only name that appeals to me.

 

[Danny_Blade]

Brian Deane is a head coach rather than a manager.

At the moment though he's an owner rather than in work as a coach, but what more Bladey Bladeness if we appointed him next!

Then again maybe he'd be better off as the new DoF if he wasn't currently involved with another club?

 

[cahill]

Need a proven winner, not a " name" or ex top player

 

[robbiez666]

Last season, Swansea, Brentford, Fulham, Nottingham Forest, Huddersfield, Leeds, QPR, Reading and West Brom

Obviously, it has to be done right and Forest are an example of, actually I don't know what on earth they're playing at, but the fact that the 3 promoted teams (and 5 of the top 6) and the top 4 this season do speaks for itself.

I don't think I could stomach Deano as manager if it was all to go pear-shaped - too much of a legend to have his reputation tarnished. Let's leave that legend in tact

Going to Palace

Hi Stegosaurus here,

Rumor is, Stuart Pearce and Sammy Lee have been seen pulling up at the Lane.

For me they can both fuck off.

 

[Bladedog]

Who ever next manager is you can bet your bollocks it's a yes man who don't rock boat

 

[Liaminho9]

Apparently nobody in charge of the club has ever appointed a football manager before. This could be interesting.

 

[Keen Blade]

If we get Eddie Howe it will be interesting to see how he deals with Lys Mousset !
