How long do you give the manager ?

[Harry's Game]

There will be a campaign to get the manager sacked from the day he is appointed.

Some people never forgave Norwood for replacing fans darling Coutts, the guy replacing Wilder. has no chance,

Unless he can walk on water.

New manager gets a season to get us challenging and another year to get us up. That’s the cutthroat nature of being a parachute side.

Spot on

 

[Geordie Blade]

What happens if someone further up the food chain offers him a job in the meantime?

If it’s the right appointment, get it done now. If it’s a quality appointment in any walk of life, you can’t relax until they are sat at their desk.

Perhaps it has already been done.

I've ordered a Pitchfork from Amazon already before the fucking rest of you get on it

Don't forget the torches. You can't form an angry mob without torches.

I hope he is given enough time for me to learn how to spell his name.

What if it is Smith ?
At least it cannot now be Adkins ! Good luck Charlton

 

[Toronto Blade]

Tough job for anyone ,clubs don't usually bounce back from a successful manager to one as good or better.

 

[ZLB]

Because who ever he is he's got one hell of an act to fellow on and off the pitch, and he will have to hit the ground running with a depressed dressing room full of players he didn't choose.
The only way he can hope to start next season with any chance of success is to sell off our best players and bring in players of his own,
And they had better be one's who can do the job from day one because we have been well and truly spoiled over the previous to this one 4 seasons.....
So best of luck pal but I don't think much of your chances ...

44 days

 

[FranTheBlade]

All things considered, the idea of an interim is actually a good move. The fans anger is fading and the season is done. Fresh start in the summer, but keeping the core together. A good start next season and the memory of this season will be banished. Does anyone else want the Owls to stay up , so we can have the derby?

Jesus! The Addicks are going to have to listen to his boring interviews. In addition to watching shite footie. Poor fuckers.

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

How long will we give you? As long as a DoF is above you, and longer if we can. How long will we need you? As long as the Prince Abdullah needs to, follow his plan.

 

[nopigfansintown]

Ask me at the end of the transfer window...

 

[Ridgeway Blade]

Well, at least Adkins can't put an application in as he has just taken on the Charlton job and says his aim is to take them to the Prem. Says he has done that before. Did we give him a fair chance?
Before I get sworn at, that last sentence is intended as a joke!!

Waterboys?

I hope they go bust. Then, if they create one of those shitty Phoenix clubs, (the AFC Wimbledon Type, not the Peter Kay type) I hope that goes bust too.

 

[blade.i.am]

 

[DaleHillBlade]

The next guy will fail. There's no doubt in my mind. He's absolutely on a hiding to nothing.

So I wouldn't even pay him much attention. He's a dead man walking.

If the new manager can’t match this seasons success then questions need to be asked

It’s a no then.

 

[The Crab]

I think he's on the fence......

 

[The Crab]

Going on their recent history they'll treat him like the Messiah, well, Powerpoint Messiah

 

[Latters]

It’s a no then.

Put me down as a maybe

 

[S40BLADE]

Fuckin Eddie Howe will have us diving, screaming and cheating just like Bournemouth did.

Good IMO. Sick of us being the Naive lot pretending to be surprised at how shit referees are. I want us to be a set of skillful bastards people hate.

 

[blade67]

If he doesn't win any of his first four matches he should be out........

And there lies the nonsense of this question.

The fact is that it wasn't until we played Port Vale and thrashed them 4-0 that I thought "hang on, that could have been 8" and you knew Wilder was going to deliver something pretty useful

How do you know that wasn't Tindles coaching

Indeed, Alex Ferguson was reckoned to be for the chop had Mark Robins not scored against Forest in the FA Cup in 1990. 8 games without a win, how different things might have been.

 

[CornwallBlade]

Anyway, chins up, Jose might well be available any day now

 

[NAP]

Give them a “Tony Pulis” time frame

 

[FranTheBlade]

Joking aside. It would be good to have a manager that can attract some established players. I feel this was an issue for Wilder as he couldn’t draw in the big names. Maybe the potential players looked at the facilities and thought, “their roof is caved in and they only have one pitch to train on”.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

No decent manager would take us on immediately after Wilder. They would have failed before the got through the door.
No, the next successful manager will be watching in wings, as Wilders successor is ritually crucified.
