Who do you want as the next manager? New poll option.

What's the general consensus on the Norwich boards?

With your mother, sister and animals no problem.
with your brother, father or any other male relative, mmm, maybe.

Good call

I agree Rodgers is better than Lambert but they're both touched by the Scottish/Irish Villa curse


and swansea spent 8 million nett on players last season which is 28m nett more than we did.

You disappoint me sir, I clicked on this thread looking for an argument.
I can't fault your logic, Rodgers is my first choice too.

[Mazrim]

Yes, I agree. But most managers have coaching set ups already.
If they haven't or wnat another though he's a goodun.

I'd be delighted with either. And we've already got a managers thread.

Rodgers looks worryingly like Phil Thompson in that pic

[hawkeye]

Well constucted arguement, I am convinced

[Rigadon]

Managers have to bring their own with them, it doesn't work otherwise. Clarke does have a good rep though

I'm leaning towards Rodgers at the moment, just for the way his Swansea team so expertly picked us apart at Villa Park.  We really did have no answer to their passing and moving.  You could almost see our players thinking "what's he doing, he's running....but he hasn't got the ball!"

Pat Murphy came out strongly in favour of Rodgers after the Radio 5 Faulkner interview. History has been rewritten by the media about that Swansea match.  I was there in January and what Villa did was what they did for many teams this season - gifted them both goals. Massive Warnock howler after a few mins and then sleepiness early in the 2nd half.

That is the one game I attended last season and they were a joy to watch, unlike Villa. Very sad but true.
