The New Manager Thread

[CJ]

of the british options (and i dont see King Kenny as an option) he is best.

i just dont feel full of hope. but its more to do with owners rather than woy.

if i was going to vote hitzfeld or magath maybe. lippi if he could speak english.

roy will be good for a minute, but we can forget about a stylish side attacking with abandon. more dire footy on the, but hopefully dire, winning footy.

[wiw]

Hurry up and ****ing learn it then

[Neil Young]

The jack in a box got to a European Final with Celtic, no?

Oh, OK. So he didn't win the UEFA Cup - that totally changes my mind about him.

What about Alf Ramsey? British, international experience, a proven winner. So he's dead - FFS, why does everyone insist on a manager who's alive? Rafa was alive and look how that turned out.

Marcus Aurelius would be the perfect interim manager until a younger man - Napoleon perhaps, or Alexander the Great - could be brought in by new owners (Croesus has tabled a bid apparently ).

[CJ]

are there any others like me who really cant figure out who you want as a manager?

i know i want us to finnish at least top 4. (we should be able to get roughly there i hope)
develp the youth.
keep most of our big stars or get money and buy quality with that money for a deeper squad.
would ideally like flowing football. I count rafa end of 08/09 season as flowing.
a manager with some class

[little dave hedgehog]

get a time machine, bring in rafa from the end of the 08-09 season?

[dww]

Aurelius: too stoical we need emotion on the bench or we'll never get anywhere. Also if he come on an interim basis you have to worry about the succession - you know what happened last time.

Napoleon: Would he be keen on coming to England after the whole imprisonment/poisoning thing?

Alexander the Great: Not really a bet for the long term.

I agree with the great man.

"The Frenchman"

"The Spaniard"

No, course St. John isnt xenophobic.

Neither's Nick Griffin.
