Manager for next season

I expect Will Hay will have his hands full privatising the nation's schools.





*He commonly played the part of a cane swishing, mortar board wearing headmaster, though not in Oh Mr Porter.

I liked the one when he was a policeman thwarting smugglers in Cornwall.

The Telegraph and The Mirror state that Dyche and Pearson are the two preferred candidates according to Newsnow.

The "new" article in the Telegraph is a rehash of old news plus Sean Dyche's name thrown in for good measure.

and it says
New board member David Bernstein and ex-Villa manager Brian Little, who is now acting as an advisor for the club, will lead the process and the pair are understood to favour a British manager who has a promotion to the Premier League on their CV

so that rules Moyes out then

Has there been an Inside Out sequel but with SBL and Bernstein?

I can't believe they'd be so closed-minded. If a manager can win football matches in the top division (as Moyes pre his Man Utd calamity did), surely they can do the same one division lower? None of the three managers who brought up promoted teams last season fitted the suggested profile, and two of them have done pretty well. You appoint the man who you think can do the best job, not one who has already achieved EXACTLY the thing you want to achieve.

I'd be astonished if Moyes wasn't one of our top choices. He does have a promotion on his CV and he was close to getting Preston promoted to the Premiership. That's if we're conveniently forgetting what he did at Everton, which I hope the board are not doing.

I bet Moyes is a candidate, it's just whether the role suits both parties.

[mr underhill]

if he isn't, our lot need their bumps feeling

I suppose all we can do now is sit back and hope now we have finally a board who know how to run a big football club can be trusted to pick a manager and work together to rebuild the mess that Randy and all his failed appointments have created.

Surely now if we have it right from the top and a plan and structure in place as long as the manager is half decent and is allowed to run it how he sees fit we'll be much stronger than we have been in the last 5 years.

[brian green]

Is that the Daily Mirror whose Darren Lewis said last week that Moyes was on his way to VP? And the Torygraph with its poisonous mole feeding them fuck you pay back stories but cannot even spell the names of those they target?

If that's the criteria Colin Wanker should be on the list. And there was me thinking things couldn't get worse

[pauliewalnuts]

Pearson and Dyche?

Fucking hell.
