Thats a very scary list!!! Idon't think I want any of those thanks!

 

[blades1889]

V jones???
i like the odds on O'Driscoll i hope that he does take over

 

[JohnDenver]

Dean Windass? He can't even speak English.

 

[Come from away]

And I thought all the talk of Brown was far fetched - 8/1 - wow, I'd accept Speed as interim but I'd really like an experienced manager who has suffered through some success. Not an exciting list.

 

[blades1889]

Who's V jones?

 

[SotonBlade]

Who's V jones?

please tell me you're not serious?

 

[Lt. J Dangle]

V jones???
i like the odds on O'Driscoll i hope that he does take over

Warnock? They are actually offering odds on this? Interesting that they've listed just about everyone in management with a Blades connection (and Kamara and Vinny??) except Chris Wilder.

 

[SotonBlade]

If i had to draw up a shortlist of 3, it'd be:

O'Driscoll
Curbishley
Roeder

All three know what it's like to be up against it, and have a decent level of tactical knowledge

 

[blades1889]

its not Vinnie Jones is it, that only Jones i can think of...

Chris Wilder would work for me, young manager, won promotion, links to United

Maybe another cheap option he has done well at Oxford United tho.

 

[blades1889]

SotonBlade ... is that vinny jones on odd to be next manager?

 

[SotonBlade]

Yes pal, can't believe you need clarification though

 

[LouTheBlade]

Speed, G 6/4
O'Driscoll, S 6/1
Brown, P 8/1

These are unsurprisingly the top three and the only realistic candidates from that list in truth. I cant see past Gary Speed getting it at the moment. Just seems too easy and too obvious. If the money is right Phil Brown would take it in a shot but Speed comes cheaper. O'Driscoll wouldn't take it if it was offered.

 

[GAZBLADE]

Glenn Roeder!! No ta. Curbs or Poyet for me.

 

[blades1889]

he's an actor, and i didn't think he would change to be a manager, in fact if he did would he even be a good manager?

Besides that, he did well in Mean Machine training loads of nutters to come good footballers. so lets get him in

and if he did come to lane and the lads didn't do as there was told he can just bit their noise off

 

[LouTheBlade]

Glenn Roeder!! No ta. Curbs or Poyet for me.

Are you seriously suggesting Alan Curbishley as a possible replacement???? Carlos Tevez affair?..........

 

[blades1889]

What the odds of Vinnie Jones becoming a manager of any football club?

 

[iggle-theblade]

curbs the west ham fan who was in charge and played Tevez at west ham get the job at the lane the club that sue'd his beloved west ham ? ? ? are you sure

 

[SotonBlade]

Poyet....no way

 

[Kev Gee]

Cork, A 25/1 all i can say is :lol:

 

[diplomat]

I can't believe Dean Windass is on any list anywhere for managing anything let alone a football team. Especially our football team. I'd put a fiver on Madonna ahead of him.

 

[Oreyt]

I can't believe he'd manage a piss without someone showing him how to unzip his fly.

 

[marshy]

I'd hang myself if we got Glen Roeder - just for having to look at his dour, miserable face every week

 

[CopenhagenBlade]

Poyet....no way

Why not Soton? He has had experience of a big club at Leeds and has had an excellent 9 months or so at Brighton. He seems pretty intelligent for a footballer, has excellent connections within the game and there doesn't appear to be any dirt associated with him. I am not sure of the style of football that they play at Brighton but my guess would be that it is better than the dross that KB has served up for the past 2 years.

 

[cjx blade]

I'm surprised Micky Adams isn't on the list.

 

[Eggman1889]

If it's Brown we will not improve at all. I don't really want Speed either but can't see ant other cheep option.

 

[SheepdipBlade]

Sabella would be a good shout. If he's good enough to replace Maradona he has to be good enough to replace Blackwell!!

 

[dj_uk_1234]

What a very poor list.

I'd imagine it will be Phil Brown though.
