The next bladey blade manager

[Silky Sabella]

Billy Sharp was lamenting the terrible start we've had to the season, recently. He would love nothing more than to manage/coach United in the future after finishing his playing career.

No thank you!

We're not a training ground for managers. Let him prove his worth elsewhere first.

Very open minded of you. So a bloke who is still playing and hasn't even started a managerial career, is a definite 'no'.

You must have some fantastic crystal ball.

I think you’ve justified why it would be a no in your own response.

Let him going and cut his teeth somewhere else before deciding if he’s actually a decent manager. TBH I’d see him more as a coach or assistant, doing a similar sort of job as Jack lester did where he can work with and develop players.

I agree and I wouldn't want any new manager to have us as their first job, Blade or not.

The post I was replying to, was a very blunt 'no', which I guess is the opposite of Bladey Bladeness, i.e assuming anyone who is a Blade, can't ever manage.

Didn't say that at all. Just saying a blunt no to Sharp

I’m not sure we’re a club that has had many former players succeed in management are we? Apart from Jimmy Hagan and Wilder who else has there been who played for us for any length of time and has had any real success? I’m sure there must be some, but I can’t think of any off the top of my head.

No more Bladey Blade managers for me.

If you have had a great relationship with the club, it could cloud judgements if things aren't going well.

Looking at things now and the split the departure of CW has caused, is not helping anything at the moment IMO.

That’s all a very long time ago.
