Would still wait personally till the season's ends. What's a new guy gonna do? We're down anyway, he can't build for next season as he hasn't a clue who's staying or leaving. Let Black take all the flak.

A new guy in now could see if he can get any of these players performing and to see if they have a future.

They'll certainly wait till relegation is mathematically certain; so, sometime before season ends.

Get Moyes signed up and tell him to go on holiday for a month then announce it in May.

It is so obvious Moyes is the correct option. So far, the club are making some very positive steps towards the future; Nigel Pearson seems at odds with that and strikes me as a very short-term fix. If he's first choice I wouldn't be pleased.

Runners and riders.

Just looked at some of the names on the list, Ally McCoist, Billy Davies I'm sure the bookies won't get many bets on them.

I really hope those bookies / punters are clueless.

The leading foreign manager is ....... Di Canio?????

The new manager will be in post by the weekend, I bet Brian Little has been speaking to candidates since the Swansea defeat. Welcome to the jungle David Moyes.

If ever there was a potential ITK I would like to be true it's this

If ever there was a right man/right place combination it's us and Moyes.

Yes, I agree Dave. He has the right credentials for us and being part of rebuilding a big club will allow him to rebuild his reputation.

Moyes would certainly tick the boxes for Lerner's Man United obsession. Still rather we waited

If Moyes wants it, go get him in straight away. What's the point in waiting?  We need someone to get a grip of this squad. He HAS to be backed in the summer. Go get him Brian!

This. I really hope they try and get him to sign a secret pre contract agreement now before someone else nabs him (as Mourinho has done with Man U, allegedly).
