I'd go Clough out of that list
You're taking the piss.
He's been terrible at Derby.
Took him ages to get Burton into the League and only did it when he was given £.

He's shown absolutely nothing to prove he could be a decent manager.

And he's a whining little shit as well.

Voted other- like the idea of Grayson. I'd be pleased with Coyle or Moyes as well. In fact anyone but Houllier

I voted other, Not sure who I wan't, Jol isn't the messiah he's belived to be, Moyes style football? He's just like MON in that sense I think.

Coyle? Hmm Bolton's a good gig, Low expectation, he'd come here lose one and everyone would be slagging off the chairman saying what was he thinking

I think Coyle fits the bill more than Moyes. It's still a long term project and he's shown with Wilshere, Mark Davies, and Sturridge that he's willing to put his faith in younger players and let them have the freedom to play in their own style and put their own stamp on it. Something our kids would surely enjoy. But his teams also have a nasty streak (Alexander and Bikey at Burnley and now K.Davies, Wheater, Robinson and Holden at Bolton).

He's obviously not as well connected as Houllier, but he's pulled a couple of highly rated youngsters from abroad out at Bolton. Rodrigo looks to have something about him, although he had a shocker with the young left back (Alonso?)

His best attribute is the way he's improved players, the vast majority of the side was there under Megson. People thought Megson got a rough deal considering the results he got. The team is pretty much the same and Coyle has them battling for Europe. It's a similar situation here, if he could come in and connect with the players like Houllier's been unable to then we'd surely be better for it.

Moyes would show we're still a draw, but the complaints Everton fans have of him are very MON-esque. Plays players out of position with frustrating results and isn't expansive enough.

If Houllier gets the chop in the summer, I would bet my boots that Moyes will get the job.

could well happen.

Need to consider the fact that the England Job will be up for grabs in just over a year as well. If Harry escapes from Wormwood Scrubs and ends up getting the job, the whole merry go round could change things again.
