CONFIRMED Slaviša Jokanović

[dc_blade]

I’d be happy for Heck to stay on, as manager of the u23s, where he was doing an excellent job.

I don't particularly want Hecky to get the job, either.

But it is a bit strange that a lot of fans were getting very excited about one guy who has very little experience except as a youth coach (Blessin) but are resolutely against another bloke who has by all appearances done an excellent job as a youth coach for us (Hecky).

 

[dc_blade]

With that anemic list we will disappear down the leagues!
We might as well get Warnock back, at least the one season would be electric again.

What list, though?

Unless I'm missing something it's a list with one name (Heckingbottom) and four blank spaces.

 

[Rodley]

Valérien Ismaël is the only choice I'd be happy with now. Can't be on huge wages and if Barnsley don't go up then I think we could pinch him... but we'll end up with Hecky,

I don't think he's the right option at all if we are trying to build something sustainable. His football is horrendous and he's had one good season.

When people say “His football is horrendous”, I take it with a huge pinch of salt. Then I watched Barnsley play, and it’s absolutely horrendous stuff. Like Wimbledon c. 1992.

He has done really well with the u23s. However, his inability to make any meaningful changes whilst in charge of the 1st team - continuing the same shite that so obviously hasn’t worked all season - suggests he isn’t up to the job.

If appointed he would be the cheapest of cheap options and a clear indication that the owners have zero ambition.

He inherited a broken and injury-ravaged team. He’s actually made more substantial changes in his time in charge than Wilder did in an entire year, dropping Lunny and changing the formation for the win against Brighton.

I don’t think he’s the man for the job but I reckon he’s being judged extremely harshly by a lot of our fans.

 

[ATL Recs]

Agreed about Wagner, if its not SJ or EH I'd rather us appoint someone who's got a Championship promotion.

Tindall
Lennon
Terry
Heckingbottom
Blessin
Appleton

Haven't.

I agree he inherited an absolute shambles created by Wilder but it was so obvious we needed to change our set up and approach to games and the fact he didn’t until the Brighton game was unbelievable. The performances have been really poor and other than the Brighton game so have the results.

His managerial record elsewhere has also been really poor and he seems to be disliked by many fans of the teams he has managed.

We need a new start and new ideas.

I do feel people wanting him haven't seen them play. It's not just direct football, it's proper ale house stuff. Even Warnock said they were a throwback.

That said it's been successful this season

There must be a ceiling for football of that style. It’s dire.

I wonder if the shock factor of how they play is the main reason behind their success. Only time will tell.

We've also started playing the ball out from the back more and ditched the hoofball; both of those things were evident before the Brighton game. So I don't agree that he hasn't tried to change things. Maybe he could've changed things more, but he's only had six or seven weeks in charge and he's working with the wreckage left by his predecessor. I don't really hold him responsible for the hammering against Leicester, for obvious reasons; the next few games were definitely poor. But the last couple of games have been much better. Overall I don't think he's disgraced himself, under the circumstances.

Anyway, I think we all agree he's not the man for the job. But I will defend him against some of the criticism he's getting on here at the moment.

It’s the difference in achievement at senior level took a good Barnsley team up ok yeah nice job. Went to Leeds and failed but you could write that off as Leeds being a basket case and him not being given time but his performance at hibs was criminal. Blessin has a smaller sample size but a more successful one.

I can't say I know anything about what happened at Hibs but he's still a young man in managerial terms with fairly short spells at a number of clubs. Plenty of time for him to go on and have a very successful career. I don't think we're the right club for him to try and relaunch--for either party.

Didn't the Hibs ownership change a few weeks after Heckingbottom started and he didn't have a great relationship with the new owners. Seem to remember hearing it somewhere, maybe an interview. Basically never had a straight run at it.

No he’d be crucified here before a ball was kicked.

Already happening!

 

[Yogi]

Already happening!

I’m not in favour of him but based on record not the bloke. This is effectively a referendum on the ownership now and Heckingbottom whatever his merits would send an unfavourable message. Now that shouldn’t factor into the decision making process but it would be naive to think it doesn’t.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Hecky it is then.

I for one will not be setting foot in Bramall lane again until Joecanovich is announced as manager


Its an absolute disgrace that the manager we were rumored to want has now been rumored to not be on the hypothetical list that the prince has created

I really can't agree with this. Due to CW's demand to have his fingerprints over the entire club we have basically become a club that only plays on fortmation and all our signings have been brought in to play that formation.

The 1st team, U23's and U18's all play the exact same formation presumably on CW's orders.

Do you really expect anyone to come in as a caretaker and seriously change things around in a short space of time?

 

[ThatJa]

Warne would be a good shout, if Rov go down.
