Compared to players managers are relatively cheap.   Just pick the one you want and make him and his club an offer they cant refuse.   Bill Kenwright is always strapped for cash.   Prise Moyes away from Everton.   

I wouldn't be against Moyes, but he'd never leave Everton mid-season. Also, if you want poor starts to a season, he's your man. I think Moyes has a lot to offer given the opportunity, but he's a complete non-starter mid-season.

Southgate's on the market. He did a great job with Middlesbrough.

If we need a new hero how about the Geordie Genius himself Shearer. Or maybe we can tempt Bobby Gould away from the horses. He won an FA Cup you know.

we should wait a few weeks. Surely Avram Grant will be free, or even Roy Hodgson. If we're being really ambitious maybe we could get Paul Ince.

My nightmare would be Gary Megson, with Allardyce, Bryan Robson and Peter Reid in reserve.

moyes would see us as a sideways step at best. What could we offer him he's not got an Everton apart from a crapper side? If he had the budget MON had that would be a different matter

I agree to a point greg. I don't think our squad is that different to Everton's though. I think we would be able to offer him more in terms of finances, but like I said he would never leave Everton like MON left us.

if you could guarantee that it would work Brian then fair enough,

but the problem is you sack Houllier, then approach Moyes and he says No, then you approach another couple of in favour managers they also say No,

then with the transfer window slipping away your left with all the piss take names mentioned in the posts above

If only Mike Newell was done slagging off women he could manage us on the side.
