No. It's a gamble that could work, like Gregory did (for a bit). However, it could fail (like Turner).

I feel Rodgers or Lambert give a far better percentage chance of success, if we can't poach a manager from a club of that stature then we might as well give up. If Solskjaer goes on to prove himself at a club like Norwich or Swansea in the Premier League in the next few years, I'd be more than willing to take a chance.

At the moment, I feel we could do better.

Who's to say that he isn't first choice ahead of either Rodgers or Lambert?  There's also the chance that Lambert or Rodgers could say 'no' to any club who comes calling this summer in any case, whoever they are.

If he's first choice ahead of them he shouldn't be. As for question two, me. You're saying if Villa offered either of them money to spend, they wouldn't jump at the chance? I doubt that very much.

yes,i think he's destined for great things, just a hunch. also be nice to have some good press for a change. and would raise our profile a bit. its took a bit of a beating recently.

He wouldn't be my choice so No.

Having said that my choices, either Lambert or Van Gaal might not want to come.  If so, i'd prefer OGS to McCarthy etc.

Yes definitely I've just seen him on SSN, he looks about 12. This time tomorrow I think he'll be our manager. Exciting

I see on Twitter a Norwegian journalist has said he's signed for us, obviously Twitter but still.

I'll take OGS. I'd take Olga Korbett over McLeish or McCarthy!
